So a 2016 Camaro 2SS with mag ride and nav and the awesome dual mode exhaust (no dumbass stereo sound and proper V8 noises) and the brake upgrade kit lists at about 48.5k which is notably less than the starting price of the M2.

Race you...

So they tried killing people with gas and now they are trying to defeat the people who found out? I swear I saw something about this a while back.....

The IMS bearing problems were only prevalent in NA models in 996 and 997.1. Turbos were not affected.

Sign me up on this plan too. Already tried to trade my 12 golf TDI on a 15 R white DSG/DCC/NAV. They offered me far below market trade in value for the TDI because “We aren’t allowed to sell it”. I expect a white fully loaded R to be waiting when they buy the car back for full price.

Great minds think alike... I’m holding out for a Golf R if they offer massive TDI discounts/trade ins.

Neutral: The longer it takes the more likely I see a buyback becoming the option.

Cmon buyback!

Neutral:

Utilizing voice controls on a 2015 STi are like trying to instruct a deaf dog with down syndrome.

I’ll just keep sitting here patiently waiting for my cheaty diesel buyback check...

I look forward to buying this in 2 years for 60% off because thats just the way it goes for Lincoln resale values.

Give me that sweet sweet“significant” discount. If we are talking 8-10k+ off a Golf R before my trade in and loyalty cash, sign me up...

Neutral: Would You Take A VW Deal?

I’ve probably been staring at this too long, but the headlights remind me of the Chrysler 200.

This is a good post. I wish this was the kind of info Tavarish had instead of his usual proclamations, followed by defensiveness in the comments about how anyone can fix an Audi S4 by watching youtube videos and he’s done it himself etc. You CAN own an old luxury car, yes. But unless you make a living writing a blog…

but I fear that’s not him taking our advice on how to make the column better but rather a by product of his knowledge of this particular generation of Mercedes.

Doug...don’t listen to these amateurs. For real you need a Morgan 3-wheeler. Just think of all the fun you would have driving around Philly...in a 3-Wheeler. You can even buy some silly hats and gloves.

Even a second Gen could be had for under $60K, gotta let him have a roof over his head when he needs it.

How about something ridiculously classic like a Model T or something? Would that be too expensive? It surely wouldn’t depreciate.
