Seriously, all this normalizing and recovery talk is completely off base. You hit the nail right on the head - nothing has changed, virus is still very much out in full force. A segment of the population has simply decided that they’re bored with it and are just going back to life as normal. This won’t make the virus…

We haven’t even hit the top of the peak yet. So, there will be, at minimum, another 80k Americans that will die from this.
If there’s anything that America is great at, it’s killing people!
It has the 507 wheels and carbon rear diffuser also. Black roof was available on P31 package as well.
It looks to me like a 507, so it’s making over 500 from the factory.
This version makes 507 from the factory.
Agreed. The pre-packaged tunes end at around 590 hp. After that it’s much cheaper to go with a supercharger. Once you get to the point of installing M159-style parts things get pricey fast. Even the hottest SLS “only” made 622 and that was at the expense of some torque.
What happens when buyer demand is still 1/4 of what it was, but production is back to normal (or close to it)?
A 40% pay cut is catastrophic for an awful lot of people.
80% of people have maintained their income...
No. You want Trump in office. Because that is what will happen if enough of you vote for Amash.
Yeah, and those people are idiots to start splurging the moment they have some freedom. It isn’t like the economy is going to bounce back to normal the moment the quarantines are lifted. We’re going to be reeling from this for years to come. I predict many more people are going to be losing jobs, including those…
Neutral: I don’t expect to see a V-shaped curve because people who’ve lost income during this time will be recovering from that and not taking on additional debt.
When the current generation Civics came out, I made fun of them relentlessly. Then I wanted something quick with good gas mileage under 25k... Driving my Si for a year and a half was enough to put me behind the wheel of a Type R. It’s a polarizing design, no doubt, but my initial repulsion of the design paired with…
Yeah I’m in the same boat as you re: savings, and I’m kicking myself for buying a car a year ago instead of this spring. I don’t think it’s a bad idea to buy a car as a result of all this, I’m more surprised that people are doing it at this very moment.
Given good credit and little debt, I agree. $189 lease on a brand new car that won’t need anything and is under warranty. You *could* put that into savings and be ready for a brake job and thermostat and water pump and clutch and tires and spark plugs and battery and alignment and 02 sensor and... Or you could just…
Second guess an Architect? Oh yes. Civil engineer? Quite a bit less.
Actually from the purchasers perspective there is very little risk if you put nothing down on the car. You are just out the monthly payments, and if you perceive them as rent, as many did with Mitsubishi’s loans back in the nineties, easy come easy go.
End of year may be the time to buy, or it may be closer to September.
Do not buy a car....yet. The market is about to completely implode. New and used cars sitting on lots. Dealers will eventually be blowing that stuff out just to try and survive....pay rent, etc. Soooooo many people with 72 and 84 month loans right now, on cars they can barely afford when they are gainfully employed.…
