I wasn’t really sure what to make of this one, so I asked the webbernets.

Crack pipe. This would be nice price if you were aspiring to be trailer park royalty. 

You know what makes this car cool?

It’s too bad you have absolutely no way of finding this information on your own.

As far as I’m concerned, if you want a “kinda-sorta” around $60K, all wheel drive, fast sedan, the answer is Porsche Panamera 4S.

Aside from assuming facts not in evidence— the author may not even be in school debt, or even if she is, her chosen career may be perfectly capable to rendering those debt (and retirement investment) concerns moot— the fact is, life is a terminal condition, and it is absolutely not worth living unless you take the…

Oscar (below) has a camp-style blanket folded on the passenger seat of my 6-series. He prefers the seat heater during the cooler months, and he’s comfortable standing up and looking around with the top down while at stoplights.

 

What are these vErY rEaL tRaDeOfFs you speak of? It’s not 1980 anymore. Modern turbos have zero lag and zero tradeoffs.

I’m going to get panned for this, but I wonder if they realize or don’t care that with forced induction this car would be a car in the mold of the WRX when it came out and had almost the power of an M3 for soooo much less money. Maybe its selling fine without, but I keep seeing this car as a “good enough” effort…

A quick search tells me you will have a hard time finding a similar one in the same condition for less. There is a fan base for these cars that is keeping prices relatively high, and nice examples are going to keep rising in value for years to come. This is a nice example to drive on weekends, keep the mileage low and…

Clean body work, typical 90's GM inside, decent aftermarket exhaust. There may be cheaper out there but this one is right here, right now.
 

I found a couple of articles that seem to imply that 143 was the top speed they reached, not the average.

This is Italy, not the United States where “muh raghts” trumps your lights and siren. 

Were they doing this on public roads? That seems like a great way to destroy one donated organ while simultaneously adding many more to the donor pool.

So that Ford did not escape ?

Whoops, I didn’t see the bit about the wheels at first.

Actually, it is true—local police don’t even have the authority to issue an Amber Alert, and it is not used for runaways or parental abductions unless violence is implicated. From the official Louisiana Amber Alert state website:
