Honda should just bring back the Element, EV it,  and stick the battery in the back and the spare on the rear.

This is a 2004 Kia.

That’s a solid $3,000 truck. For $7,000 it needs to be something better than a high mileage poverty spec fleet truck. No dice. 

If you drew a Venn Diagram of people who want a reasonably sized truck and people who want to buy a Ram, you’d have two completely independent circles.

In fact, he rarely does it. “I just think that I find it stressful,” he says. “I try not to do things that don’t add to my life.” And then he adds—a statement said with sincerity—“Look, we’re on these roads, anything can happen.”

This is an atrocious take. The Flex was Ford’s last good crossover. Crossovers now have some of the worst passenger space; which kind of is the main purpose of a crossover (at least that’s what every consumer says). It basically was a minivan without the sliding doors. 

The Flex was a great car actually. It was big enough for a whole family, had more power than it really needed out of that ecoboost, it looked pretty damn good, had AWD for snowy climates but never tried to act like it had any kind of off-road chops, and you could get a really well optioned one for under 40k.

It’s probably the Model T, isn’t it? No knock against the Tin Lizzie, just that it’s likely objectively worse than every car that came after it (which, I suppose opens up how it compares to the handful of cars they built prior). It’s slow, kind of flimsy, and most people couldn’t just hop in and drive it without a…

Trollish maybe, but it’s not really this guy’s MO.

He already daily drives a 335, his kids are out of the house, and he has $120k for a weekend car; investment advice is the last thing he wants from a comments section.

100% RC F would be a great fit, or at least deserves a test drive. I’d also throw in a Corvette:

A cheaper alternative would be the RC350 F Sport for 70K all options included.  Plenty of trunk space, cruises very well and comfortably with low cabin noise.  

He already has a BMW 3 series, so I’m a bit surprised no one mentioned the M8. A big, comfortable GT car with over 600hp and can be had in coupe or convertible form. Seems to be pretty objectively good looking, better driving than the LCF, and he’d be somewhat familiar with most of the BMW quirks already.

The Lexus is a great recommendation, and the best way of getting what this guy is going for. Thing is, as Richard Hammond put so well on the old TG, something feels weird about dumping that sort of money on a Lexus.

This is Germany, not the US. No swim attire needed.

I mean, in-ground pools are just wet holes in the ground. What a weird take.

Preach. I’ve seen several sell on bring a trailer for well over $100k and I just kept thinking are people really this impatient? But then I realized that for most of the bidders, the extra money isn’t even a factor. 

Why anyone overpaying for the Stingray was dumb

Really? I bought a rough, high mileage one at auction for like 400 bucks just before covid started. I get that mine is a rough example, but surely they aren’t worth 14k?

What the fuck? Seriously? It’s been 11 years since they stopped making them?
