If it’s an S54 in good shape, that could easily be worth $3,250 (or more) right there.

Ah thank you! I was thinking of the Dunning-Kruger effect just the other day but couldn’t remember the name... On topic, totally agree with you.

You can be pissed about the Z06 thing, because they simply didn’t offer better cooling packages. The GT350 issue is different because you could buy a GT350 with the coolers so that you could still drive on a race track without overheating.

Maybe we’ll see a GT “track pack” in the future, but that’s still not entirely relevant to the item at hand (GT350).

On the Mustang GT (not GT350) it’s called a Performance Pack for a reason, not a track pack. On the GT350, the Track Pack DOES include coolers, as does the GT350R.

?? Ford offers a Track Pack on the GT350 that includes both transmission and differential coolers. The GT350R comes with those as well. This is not a case of over promising and under delivering, this is a case of owners who specifically did NOT buy the Track Pack (or GT350R) and then complaining about it overheating…

Bailey said that the NIO team actually held the EP9 back a bit on its driverless run out of fear of binning one of their only EP9s.

Bailey claimed that the car had driven itself 10 seconds faster without official timing when he was in the car

I’m beginning to think that the F&F movies have turned into a psychology study where the writers ask “how ridiculous and over the top can we make this movie until people stop going to see it in theaters?”. I mean, the Rock playing with a torpedo as it slides along the ice? Really?

Lol fine - I don’t know the area, just going on other comments. Either way, there are still sidewalks and what appears to be businesses and the like, so he could still be endangering others.

Well, the real question is, what’s the worst that could happen? This.

I think the point was on the price. When the average price of a new car sold in the US is around $30k or so, a $23k car would probably be considered “entry level”.

Both Taurus and Fusion are FWD with AWD options.

Oh, well I missed that part lol. But you can learn about the M3, there’s plenty of info out there... I’m just saying, for the price you paid, you could have gotten an M3 for only a little more still in good shape. Heck, for $12.5k you can get an M3 in decent shape that may just need a little work. A PPI to make sure…

Oh yeah, there are definitely possible issues like that. But honestly, for just a few thousand dollars more.... I’d take the fun car. Plus, it’s already not this guys only car. And maintenance is already expensive on any BMW, so “a bit more expensive” for an M car.... meh, I think it’s worth it.

Under $6k?! Wow... I’ve been considering something like a CMax just because the prices are stupid low (same as a couple year old Volt), and I was even thinking about a Focus electric... but ~75 miles or so just scares me a bit if I ever have to drive from Belleville to Dearborn (home to work), but then out to Ann…

So I don’t doubt that, but what exactly does that have to do with my point that, again, most people don’t want to do 800 mile road trips (and if they do, they very likely wouldn’t mind a stop every couple hundred miles)?

That’s ballsy! I know my parents’ Volt and CMax both lose fairly significant electric range in the winter; with an epa range of 84 miles and an 80 mile commute I would not want to commute in the winter...

So, $13,400 for an E46 325? Yeah, no thanks. People seem to think that mileage is all that matters, but this car is now 10-11 years old. Truth is that rubber bushings and things like that simply wear out over time (rubber dries and cracks, for example). If the car hasn’t been driven much, there are plenty of bits in…

Or what about just doing a tax on electricity at charging stations? Or for those that have charging stations installed at home, a tax on that electricity (assuming it’s on a separate meter).
