That’s my exact same memory too, cheap silver painted interior...a fad it was a decade late too. No AUX input. Just a simple 4 banger and 4-speed automatic, the competition was way ahead. Probably was fairly reliable considering how basic/antiquated it was.

And the contrast even more so, LA has the biggest income equality gap within the US. A lot of people don’t realize how much of LA is blue collar/industrial, biggest manufacturing city in the country.
It’s so accurate, almost like in NYC figuring out which subway lines to take to get from one spot to the next.
While Beverly Hills is a popular area for spotting cars, there are other great areas you will see amazing ride like Brentwood/Palisades, West Hollywood, Malibu, Hollywood Hills, etc. Frankly I am desensitized now after living here for a handful of years...it will take a McLaren F1 or Singer Porsche to make my heart…
That’s actually the reason why I wanted the Yaris for my Dad, he just picked up a new one. He wants a car that goes 200k with no problems along with minimal maintenance and I knew the powertrain was proven in the Yaris being so ancient. The DCT is a mess in the Fiesta, the Fit has a new CVT which is questionable, and…
Even if our stats are more accurate than another 1st world country, our spread between them and us is so huge that it would be a negligible impact. I never mentioned the NRA or white’s not having problems with the police.
Based off homicidies per 100k people stats. We are close to the top for a 1st world country. I don’t want to exclude gangs as that is still a human and relevant.
Homicides per 100k people, it’s certainly higher than many other 1st world countries. Yes relative to many 3rd world countries it’s better but not something to be proud of.
Just my opinion but the police in the US are very militarized, in fact a lot of them have background from the military so I feel that makes an impact. Also it turns into a very much us vs. them mentality...America is a violent country and we see it through cops. I will admit there are parts of this country where I…
Having the great fortune of being in a few Singer’s, I can confidently say that will be one of my first splurge cars to buy...it’s so much more interesting and special than a 488, GT3, Lambo, etc. Some people get it, some don’t but they have delivered enough cars to justify there is a market.
Yes @vicioustang on IG, my buddy’s car. You can see a recent video of me riding in it being blown away.
Haha, it’s a high end fashion label. I noticed it too.
Tax haven, register a LLC in Montana and not pay sales tax on your outrageously expensive supercars.
That is my buddy Chris’s Mustang, check out their IG that has 20k followers @viciousstang. There is a recent clip of me riding in the car, it’s insane. I have been fortunate to drive it also, 1000ish hp to the wheels running E85 with two turbos and a s/c, straight cut gears, sequential gear box, C7 Vette front end,…
Curious, I just helped my Dad buy a 2017 Yaris 4-door LE for $16.5k from Toyota of NoHo, $2k off MSRP. Was that a good deal or was there a lot more wiggle room left?
Considering that’s a 7 story fall, have to say pretty impressed on how the car held up. 20 years ago this may have been a very different result.
SF is 47 square miles, not much room for 200 acres lots.
This is San Francisco...not LA, where the city is only 47 square miles and tightly packed. P.S. It says SF multiple times in the article? Lol.
Sigh, you must work for FCA to be wanting to defend them this much. Our family owned a Budget rental franchise for a decade and ran a 500+ car fleet (50% of it being solid and replaced annually), we tracked TCO (true cost of ownership) for all our models from cost to buy/sell/maintain. We would run our cars up to 60k…
