I think you missed part of that joke.

Those BMWagons really do look the same. I know the headlights are different, but I couldn't tell you which is a 3 and which is a 5.

Could you deliver the rest of your goat-fucker joke? I'm not familiar with that one.

Because in 20 years when we go looking for a used one, every thing for sale will be automatics. The 4th gen F-body and c4/c4/c6 markets are saturated with auto cars. Granted the new autos are way better than a 4L60 could ever dream to be, but still, I'm curmudgeony and I want three damn pedals.

If you don't like a 69 fastback you need your eyes checked.

The cupholder doesn't get in the way. The cup in the cupholder is what gets in the way. Just consider this a phone holster.

When you say low class, do you mean poor or trashy? Or are these things the same to you?

except for artists and certain 'creatives'?
I do not want to be part of your reality. Does one get a pass on being low-class if they are shitty artists?

Flat out refusal I'll agree with you. I had a dude a few weeks ago that insisted on "his" mechanic that was 40 miles from me. I suggested he find one near my house and he vanished.

Not for nothing, but doesn't the automotive world say that same thing every time we get a new Corvette?

I think if you did that at 50mph on pavement your story would end differently.

The term "shooting break/brake" annoys me to no end and I usually don't like the car that name is attached to.

So don't hang out with other dorks on bikes. A motorcycle is, by its very nature, a solitary device.

And at the end of the day, I just like the C2 Corvette much better. I think it's maybe the best-looking American car ever made, and I'd do terrible things to own one.

And scenario #2 is why it's not worth a seller's time to let you haul the car off to get inspected. Because everyone is going to come back with 800 bullshit nitpicks and proceed to argue 40% off your asking price. No thanks, I'll wait for the next guy to come buy.

Agreed. Who wants to spend 5 hours driving all over town between two banks and the DMV for a $5000 car? The officially endorsed method in Texas is to accompany the new buyer to transfer the title. No one does this.

If I do some trading in cars and only have it for a few months you're automatically not going to buy it from me? Just because there's a chance I might make off with a little profit doesn't mean you're getting boned.

Me too. I know that I sure don't fill out a record book when I change my oil. Scribble on the top of the windshield and move on with life.

All C2s are great.

If you must do it, can we at least stop painting cars that pale dirt/pewter/champagne color? You know why it doesn't show dirt? Because your stupid car is the same color as dirt.
