I can’t imagine a kei car is much worse than say any other older car. You can register a Geo Metro just fine, and I wouldn’t want to be in a crash with a Suburban in one of those. A 90's Civic isn’t exactly the most robust vehicle either.

No one is forcing you to buy a RAV4 Prime.  Plenty of other vehicles available for sale.  The dealer also doesn’t threaten you with harm if you don’t pay their price.

Wouldn’t most people just skip over this place though? If I checked out a dealer website and saw a ridiculous listing like this, I’d just cross that dealer off the list. Who signs up to deal with unreasonable people?  Most dealers are bad enough, this one is turning the dial to 11.

I’d love to see an interview with the guy who thinks this car can sell for $100k. I mean what is the logic there?

Assuming the undercarriage isn’t rusted, this might be the nicest surviving example of this truck. These things usually looked beaten down 10 years ago.

Certainly is better than another article on a bicycle or disbelief that consumers haven’t ditched ICE vehicles for EVs.

I like Lexus SCs, and this seems like a reasonable price for one in good shape that hasn’t fallen victim to frequent trips to Pep Boys in an attempt to join Dom’s crew (I’d guess they’d want the 2JZ anyway), but the beige paint really ruins any enthusiasm and is even worse on beige leather. Who spent decent coin on a…

I realized this on the intro scenes when I’m disturbing a flock of flamingos while I destroy the jungle as a cargo plane flies overhead at 200'. Who would want to host this thing? You don’t even see the festival goers in towns, they’re just fenced in at the festival sites. Meanwhile the local residents get their…

Yeah it is pretty clear that “Gunther” is just a meal ticket for these people who have managed to work their way into this hustle. I mean, I guess the estate seems well managed at least, but I doubt Karlotta Liebenstein intended for this to persist 20 years after her death and the death of the dog it was intended to…

I don’t know if it doesn’t make sense from the manufacturer’s perspective.

Not sure if it is elsewhere in the comments, but this car was $65,000 in 1982. That is $186,000 today. Looks like it wasn’t that special in 1982 either.

I actually just completed a round of Arcade. There was maybe 5 of us that I could see. I started off alone though, so I thought I was in another empty session, but then I saw the points piling up.

Or Tracy is going to up the ante and find a Phaeton W12 first.

What I really want is a modern TSX wagon, so I guess this is the closest you can get to that. I like Acura’s exterior styling. The interior is looks like most other SUV interiors. I don’t like how I can’t get the brown interior with anything but some shade of gray exterior paint.

There aren’t many listed on Autotrader, but ignoring the ones that haven’t even been driven, you can find a driver that looks to be in far better shape than this one for ~$9k more. I think I’d scrape together the extra funds.

Or even more optimistic, someone shopping for an Audi RS5 will come across this and go “you know, a diesel wagon will work too”. 

Yeah.  Money, house with a garage and a driveway to have more than one car.

Don’t go looking for a clean third-gen WRX either. Or at least the wagons.

And you didn’t buy one because they were tin cans with hot motors, and the fact most were modded in some way by someone who dresses like they are sponsored by Monster Energy and you wouldn’t want to be the next owner.

I have a PS5 because I know I’ll want to play Gran Turismo when it comes out. I got a PS Direct invite, and who knows when I’ll get another chance to buy one. So I have it. If I knew I could waltz into a store when GT comes out and buy a PS5, I wouldn’t have bothered right now.
