Front end was contained and yet the back still went for the nearest grouping of bystanders

Parties are not a good use of funds, so he does not host or attend them.

1. You expect the list of bad cars to miraculously change, for what reason?

The experience of owning a car in High School isn’t one that can be replicated later in life. Its a rite of passage from childhood to adulthood. Some of my best memories are the freedom I had going places with friends in my car that a fucking indexed investment would never have replicated.  

You’re advising a high school student to not buy a car, not have fun, not get in trouble. Instead, he should save his money and spend his youth calculating interest...

Hmm let’s see: Never driven one, bashing every renouned source raving about the brand, yet can only talk about other rumors of it’s reliability.

Your mistake was buying him an Audi TT, not a used car.

And that’s actually down from the 10-20k premium over MSRP that the 1M had a couple years ago. The M2 has cut down the rarity of that market.

Context - that’s a bit of a double edged sword. Yes, you can make the argument that the Trabant was a great example of making the best under seriously suboptimal circumstances. And hey, all engineering is, at its heart, an exercise in optimization subject to constraints. Problem is, a lot of these cars were subjected

His loss. I was a valedictorian cheerleader with my own savings account. I also had a car, because I had friends to go see. You can’t make out in a savings account.

Ot buy a car and enjoy your high school years with you buddies, girls etc.

I daily drive this, and it also has been on the track. Supercharged V8, 550 hp. Am I doing something wrong?

Woah hey there mister angry.

Yes, the context argument makes sense, but the “worst cars” lists are good for a chuckle, not meant as some kind of scientific report that needs modifiers for era and location.

I will continue to attack each and every one of these travesties as the crimes against humanity and the automobile industry as a whole that they represent.

Nope, all crapcans. Truth hurts.

uhh.. It’s an Alfa. The soul of the Automotive world. Ever heard that saying? It exists for a reason. Also Silly Jalop, people who can afford 80K 500+HP cars, don’t use them as their daily driver to work. They have other cars for that.

Thoughts about my RS?

Pewaukee is a nice city. I grew up in Delafield, and now reside in Jefferson County.

Thanks so much for the help you guys. :)
