Not just appropriate, but obligatory.

No. There’s nothing to generate it from. However oxygen would work for this in an atmosphere made up of CO2.

Typically it’s because it’s a third or fourth car. In other words, a toy.

I’m a fan of that era Ford tail lights.

I totally agree. I’ve had intermittent wipers. I’ve had speed sensitive wipers. All the old school tech still requires you to be involved. Automatic wipers are for the most part set and forget.

Also keep in mind that the change from 6 to 4 w/turbo was accompanied by a change in transmission with more gears. 

I thought for sure it would be this clip.

If you go with a new E 63, you’ll end up spending well north of the $120k budget. So you’re dropping down to used and likely a CPO purchase. I’m of the opinion that if you’re spending that much on a car, it might as well be new. Others might feel differently.

As nice as an E63 wagon would be, it’s now 2021. I’d go with either the X3M competition or X4M competition depending on your taste. Brand new and loaded they list around $90k. That’s well under budget.

Well that looks like an hour and a half of fun. I’m in.

My first brand new, just out of college, car was the 89 LX 5.0 hatchback. I never liked all the body cladding the GT had. That was truly a fun car for it’s time.

No.

Nope. But that’s not really necessary to be a careful and aware driver.

It must suck to live in fear like you. I guarantee you the drivers of those vehicles are more aware of their cars than you are of yours. They’re show pieces that they take out once or twice a week and go to these kinds of events. They’re not DD.

Definitely an example of a car from a builder with skill but no taste.

Secret origin? Does that mean Clark and Lois aren’t the parents?

The law requiring disclosure of pricing information is actually part of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). In 2018, it was determined that the then current disclosures were not actually useful. This led to a new rule on implementation of the ACA requirement.

At 110, you’re only supposed to be going straight.

You were supposed to keep that a secret. You know, for drama.
