My school had a opposite day thing along those lines. Not many boys participated, I really wanted to, but I was scared of being made fun of or judged. (Although I'm not sure I fully understood the concept of "judging' in second grade, but looking back on it, that's pretty much it).
I think, if you count the 3 and 4 series as the same car, they've got them beat.
In fairness, that was out in 97-2003. For comparisons sake, here some other 1998 SUV's, comparatively I think the Lexus RX isn't the worst:
What about this?
I uh.... kinda like it on the new model....
Do you know specifically what verse she was referring to? The closest I could find was Matthew 6:5 —
They are awesome cars, no wonder the prices on them has started shooting up lately!
If you haven't seen it before, I think this Porsche Commercial pretty much says it all:
In addition to what's been mentioned.. that classic 911's are rare, expensive, coveted, etc.... the 964 is also considered by a lot of people as the pinnacle of Porsches. Most modern chassis/suspension/etc while still being air cooled and very mechanical.
You can have your own opinion, but I think that looks pretty good.
Doug! Make a podcast and write another book. I already read the first two, and the episode of the smoking tire you were on (seriously forever ago) was fantastic!
I bought a 2005 RX8 with 15k miles for $15k off the lot about 4 years ago. No regrets. The engine is almost to 50k now and still hasn't exploded!
This is actually pretty aggressive for a camry... they should've stuck with the 2014 model:
No they can. The Audi S3 has a 2.0t with 290hp.
Depends where you live.... there are a lot of places where a 911 is pretty common, and wouldn't even earn a second glance.
It's still an expensive sports car... however to their point, if some one see's a Turbo S pulled up next to a Gallardo, an R8, a 458 Italia, and a McLaren, no one would bat an eye at the "posh beetle".
Not sure if joking, but I'm going bite anyways....
Regular people know a Porsche with the word "turbo" on the back is special, and they know a Mercedes with AMG badging is special. It's the whole reason Audi has S-Line and BMW has M sport packages.
It also wasn't expensive or fast enough to work with. Bugatti for example sells a car about 4 times more expensive that the LFA, only make a single car, no one has ever seen one, and before the Veyron was a brand literally no one had heard of.
