Cheaper than a new Miata, safer than a motorcycle, plus you get to tinker with it all the time. Perfect midlife crisis car.

I see you also bought a 3 day supply of soy sauce. 👍

Looks like my car (2001 Golf 2dr TDI) when I make my monthly run to Sam’s. And yes, while you can’t see it, there is about 10lbs of Wrights thick sliced bacon in there!

I’ll do the math for you if you’ve got baseline info!

I don’t know man. That sounds like it involves math, and I don’t like math.

I would love it if each year we could see a recap list of 1) the biggest NP wins, 2) the biggest CP losses, and 3) the closest wins/losses

Yeah, I’d imagine it’s a similar cohort.
