Those Rivian vans are all over the place here. They look like a big cartoon character. I think they look pretty cool. 

Living pretty close to an amazon warehouse, I see them quite often and those goofy vans always put a smile on my face. Hope they can get more buyers for them.

Cult is the operative word here. It has been so long since it was announced that it is due a midcycle refresh already.

Man, I remember before the pandemic you could get a stolen NSX that had been submerged in a river for 20 years for just $6500.

One too many zeroes.

Neon SRT-4 is not awful. Quite the opposite. Neon ACR the same. Great success in SCCA. 

I am fascinated with this era of Dodge, because their overall build and interior quality were so cynically bad that it seemed like a sort of inside joke by the automaker. The SRT8 Jeep was the same way - it was like they said “yeah we know it’s crap, but you’re gonna buy it anyway huh? what else are you gonna do, get…

Dodge Caliber SRT-4.

“Needs a basic tuneup,” along with the replacement of everything rubber or soft or remotely prone to rot. I don’t have any idea what hoses and whatnot cost for a Viper, but I can’t imagine the task will be “basic” in any capacity.

There is a sucker born every minute. This lady just bought a 1998 Ford Escort for $289 per month for 84 months.

We live in strange times, and this dealer must have magic mushrooms in the break room 

Lol, these idiots missed the boat. Prices have already dropped.

The local ones I attended were really tight events. Mustangs would make one run, knock over most of the cones, then leave.

Lotus Evora 2+2. Bump the budget up from $35k to $40k and buy this one: https://www.bournes.com/used/Lotus/2013-Lotus-Evora-3b9c85500a0e09a836efb17e0e7b261c.htm

It is not a Porsche. It is like the Toybura in the sense the heart of this Lotus is a Toyota 2GR V6. And there is aftermarket support for Lotus vehicles…

I suspect the more likely outcome is 4 city officials are going to get really nice cars to drive when the program goes bust.

Huh, I arrived at “scam” when they said that this service’s fleet would be comprised entirely of one of the most expensive EV models on the market.

It’s Florida, so it’s almost certain to be a scam.

The massive inflation and property value bubble may have something to do with it. Pretty much everything is more expensive, including labor and materials. I’m sure there were unforeseen issues in geology and such. There’s a section of rural highway were I live that took a decade or so longer to build than planned for.…

Multiple factors. First, we have a habit of outsourcing non-routine public works to consultants and contractors rather than bringing that talent in-house in the US. It’s why municipal utilities run pretty well, municipal transit projects suck because the agency doesn’t know what they want, how feasible ideas are, and…

I mean, he has a “D” after his name, so he must be different than all those other old white men worth a couple hundred million. People are gullible as fuck.
