I feel as though Steve Lehto should have a follow up article on how to get your money back from a used car salesman "after hours".

Minus taxes (the government will take a heavy cut unless properly invested), that still would not be a good idea (the SHO that is).

Sure, and then you'd have to pay property taxes, maintenance, insurance in one of America's most expensive counties where this man works...on $10 an hour. And still not have a car, or a reliable public transportation system to get to and from work.

With that said, some of the richest people i've ever met were driving 14-year-old E-Class wagons with months of brake dust because they just don't give a fuck what anyone thinks of them.

Driving at those speeds on a public road is, to me, the same as firing a gun into a crowd of people.

They're bigger repros of originals. I like them.

Of course gas gets cheap when I finally get a more fuel efficient daily driver and my premium swilling 440 Dart is down for a drivetrain refresh this winter.

Please someone explain why GM doesn't bring these state side? The market here is ready I think. All they have to do is price them right. Does it not fit into a long term strategy or something?

The "MPG needle" on BMWs is dubious at best. It's just calculating throttle angle versus speed and giving an estimated efficiency, hardly scientific. At highway speeds the vast majority of friction is due to drag. Seeing the equation for drag is typically easier than explaining in words:

I think a Corvette can handle being accelerated to 50mph.

50? That's nothing that the owner didn't do a few times on the way there. He didn't hit anything, there's no harm to the car. I don't see a problem.

This.

Does a GT-R speedometer not read in MPH? What does it read in, tears of the unborn? What a dumb excuse for speeding.

or just drive the speed limit

FYI insurance is done through a specialty insurance company that only handles collector policies. It was only $1,700 per year — about half of what I spend for my daily driver. The $3k expense is because I initially insured it through State Farm, who wanted $500/mo. Knowing what I know now, obviously I would've signed…

I guess that after about a hundred miles you could reverse the rear tires and wear out the other side.

Something tells me that once the driver started honking the protestors went after the car, trying to break windows and destroy paint. Once that shit happens all bets are off. Mow down as many motherfuckers as possible. If you threaten my life or the life of my family members you better believe it that I will mow down…

Too bad the photos are of two different cars. Only one of which is an actual convertible.

If VW can't make cars with power windows that won't fail after 2 years I can't imagine what's basically a fancy VW full-o-electronics will be like in the same time period.
