The Miata crowd tends to underestimate the demand for 4 seat convertibles.  

JFC...

The flag is not the problem, and expecting any control over the spectators is foolish. Are they going to ban shirts, hats, tattoos, and all the other garbage that is emblazoned with the flag?

These are typically the same “patriots” that proudly celebrate the confederacy, so It’s best to keep your expectations low.

If the police ever come knocking on my door

I’m just going to drop a shout out to Nalley BMW of Decatur here. I’m in Minneapolis, and I bought my used BMW from them. It was a $25,000 out of state purchase, but from start to finish, they treated me like a local celebrity spending six figures.

I never thought I’d ever say these words, but for the money, the VW Eos is a better choice.

Did I miss the part about making it street legal in the US?  Is it possible to do in a major metro area?

I think saying yes to 6 million for a narration is beyond avaricious

My wife is in the market for a relatively inexpensive used luxury crossover. Earlier today I discovered that there is a Hertz used car location near me, and that they have a low mileage Discovery Sport at a decent price.   

I had a 2005 RL in 2007. Torque vectoring AWD and 290 hp was pretty good 15 years ago.       

As a black man, calling the police because a white man is feeling threatened feels like trying to put out a small fire with diesel fuel. It might work, or it might get your face blown off.

I may be somewhat atypical, but I’ll be over 90k miles on mine this year and that hasn’t been my experience.

$14k can get a decent F30 335i. Loaded 328s should be easy to find for that money.  F30s aren’t Acura’s, but they aren’t automatically the money pit nightmare that the internet likes to rant about either. 

Counterpoint:

That sure sounds like a team that can find it’s own ass with two hands and a flashlight, alright.

I still think it’s really fucked up that it’s actually MORE difficult to purchase a less expensive used vehicle versus a new one.

Poor fit and finish? Check.

It probably needed a transmission repair or replacement that cost as much as it was worth.  If it didn’t at the time, It most likely would have soon. 

Frankly I won’t get a fucking nickel out of any of this and I am A-OK with that.
