Early 2000's cars are not so old as to have issues with modern tech being added to them. I upgraded the head unit in my 2001 BMW to a 10" touch screen with Android Auto and it was exactly what it needed to up its daily driver potential.

Damn right. Love my GTI but I won’t update or upgrade to another VW until they do.

Waiting for VW to update their GTI/R with buttons instead of the haptic ones. 

Not for me, but I’m happy for those who can get it. Definitely worth the wait. Now there’s the thing about those pesky “Market Adjustments” though...

It won’t fall out of favour. You just have to look at the reasons people are buying SUV’s to understand why.

I think I kinda like the new one best

Unintended Accel story: I BENEFITTED from this BS because the price of all used Audi’s dropped like a stone at this time. I was in the market to replace my Fiat X-1/9 as a daily and found a 1981 Audi GT Coupe for around $3500. When I went to look at it I thought the seller had either the wrong car in the drive way or…

Agreed. I was never a big fan of Nissan’s “v-motion” grilles they stuck on everything. It always looked forced to me, like they wanted something, anything, as a uniform product design element a la the Lexus “spindle body” or the Kia “tiger nose”.

I saw a comment somewhere else describing the GT-R as having an “old-school feel” to how it drives. That really speaks to how much the industry has changed in 15 years, because for the first several years of its existence the GT-R was the posterboy for horrific, numb, computer-controlled, total disengagement from…

Taking a page from the Challenger/Charger playbook. I guess if people still buy them, why not?

Can you imagine having bought one a week ago? It’s one thing for that pair of AirPods you bought last week to now be on sale for $50 less, but thirteen thousand dollars is on a whole other level of buyer’s remorse.

From a very early age I used to watch Speed Racer Cartoons. This car would be a great daily especially with all its gadgets fully functioning.

America choo choo chooses the Canyonero.

The Gadgetmobile

Gotta be kidding. This is just a runner or a scrapyard car. It’s not a $6000 starting point. It’s not even a $6 starting point. The seller didn’t even bother to clean it. And neither would I. Just give it away if you don’t want it.

ND - Dented, ripped and looking like a $40 motel room after a trucker’s party. Rare but almost dead is how I see this sad Audi. It’s a $2,000 car for someone who craves it, at best.

This seems pretty cool. I’d drive one, but I’m sure it’s going to be priced to compete the Tesla Model Y performance ($70K) and the Rivian R1S ($78K).
