Love the car hate the price.

Interesting “survivor” and I dig the body style and that arrow-like back end.

living in Arizona, and working with people all over the US, EST or PST is the base, so even though you may live in AZ, still ruled by time changes

“Yes!” exclaimed Senator Kyrsten Sinema, Democrat of Arizona, who flashed a big smile and clenched both her fists in triumph as she presided over the chamber.

The best way to avoid this kind of traffic is to support a locally-owned chicken place that serves tastier food, is likely owned by a member of your local area, and doesn’t publicly, proudly discriminate against the LGBTQ community.

Counterpoint: fossil fuels are unacceptable.....

Not if you’re sucking down a mochafragilisticexpialicchino and biscotti while taking a meeting and grinding out emails, it isn’t.

OC not pretentious? Lol. I’d like to introduce you to Lake Forest. I won’t be going back to that bag of pricks anytime soon.

You nailed it. Even a $1.5 million house in nearby San Fernando, Glendale or Burbank is like a trashy median home in Ohio somewhere. The people living in this neighborhood were middle class people suddenly discovering that the homes they were barely able to afford at $700K just 8 years ago is now $1.5 million, and…

No, No, No, No. That’s vandalism, pure and simple. Now loosening tire valve stems is another whole matter.

Thank you. This site is a weird combination of car enthusiast and anti-capitalist at the same time, but the notion that a $1.5M California home makes them “elite” is just stupid.

In CA, a $1.5M house is just firmly middle class. That isn’t a mansion, it’s a small tract home in LA.

Silver Lake is one of the most exclusive and expensive neighborhoods in L.A.

If you pull up to a repair shop that doesn’t have a parking lot, your first thought should be “where is my car going to get stored?”

I would think the *owners* of the fancy cars would be less than thrilled about having them parked on the street. If I knew a shop was doing that with my car I wouldn’t be taking my car there.

I mean, nothing about this is gouging though. As much as I detest Musk and overall kinda meh about Tesla, a 3-5% price increase is certainly not gouging and certainly much much much preferred to dealers cranking up the price 20%+ on cars. At the end of the day, the cost went up for Tesla and adjusted their pricing…

Adjusting to higher production costs due to inflation is not price gouging.

It’s the “good times will never end” of low gas prices that happens every decade or so. I got premium for less than a dollar in the late 90s and it regularly stayed between $1-2 on average and creeped up to $4-6 in 2008. It’s how you got V10 Ford Excursions with 10mpg and no one blinked. Then the small car boom in…

I feel like this kind of build is intensely personal. For the person with the skills and love of wrenching to do it, the build is probably more than half the reward. Even if you buy with the right expectations about what it’s for and what it will do, owning it would be a hollow feeling. Cool toy, but ND.
