Bravo!

E36 M3 Sedan 5-speed non-luxo (i.e. black leather manual seats and no old-man wood veneer). I honestly don't know what to trade for. I haven't been able to come up with anything that I don't think I'd regret. Suggestions? It has 90k and I'm starting to think it might be time to move on, but for the life of me don't…

Irony is a boat that is named after a car that is named after a boat.

(Damned hamster) I was trying to add that what you say about the C5 Z06 is encouraging. I wouldn't have expected them to drop that much. Thanks for correcting me.

Big difference between an F40 and an F355. The F355 is a good example of what I was talking about. It's good, but it wasn't a Top-tier Ferrari, so yes, it's a good candidate. In fact I have to talk my brother out of them all the time. He keeps finding them in the $35k-39k range but "needing some work".

I see a lot of cars in this thread that are never going to depreciate much. A Z06? Not going to happen. Ferrari F40? Are you kidding? These are cars that will always demand a premium. Sure, they may depreciate, but never to the level that they will be a "bargain" compared to other options. These are cars that will…

You just called the driver of a Trans-Am an "It". lol

914 FTW. Yeah, I know. I'm here pimping the 914 again. I'll try to make it interesting.

Yeah, about that PSI thing. Compression and forced induction boost can both be measured in PSI, but dont' forget that sometimes what you add to one eventually gets taken from the other. With interest.

Indeed.

I was attacked. I feared for my life and that of my family. I'm being treated for post traumatic stress disorder. I'm afraid to go outside. I don't want to talk about it any more. It's too upsetting. I'll never be the same. (then wink at the prosecution and mouth the word "vacuum")

Take a $5,000 E36 M3 and add a turbo. Turn 9 second quarters. Okay, it's not that simple, but a 9 second M3 rebadged as a 318 would be quite the sleeper. Pull the M3 skirts and valances off too to make it look more pedestrian.

Discourage this behavior with a mild organic aromatherapy.

Derp.

Prior art.

Don't prank your fellow gearheads, go after some other community! Years ago 914club.com used to pull off "Friday night raids". We'd pick some weird forum like an alien abduction support group and infiltrate it over the course of a week. Then on Friday we'd start troll threads that slowly unwound themselves into…

No lie; I've come around a corner more than once and seeing a Juke at first glance thought it had been in a bad collision.

I totally want this! I have a good friend who goes up to work on the Annapolis cleaning project several times a year. I wonder if he'd bring it home for me on the top of his Element?

This thread makes me sad. In a day when we have such amazing access to scientific knowledge why do so many choose to be farm-animal stupid? It's not lack of IQ, it's a conscious choice to ignore science (because of laziness?) and believe in stupid crap like these products. When I was 17-19 I worked in a garage and we…

Originally they were going to go with "458 Italia Antincendio" but the marketing department thought having the word "fire-escape" in the name might have a slightly negative effect on buyer enthusiasm.
