I love your work and I’mma let you finish but–

I have 2 of them, take your pick.

You’re gonna have a hard time explaining how buying a Lexus makes you “gullible.”

I have a 2011 v-8 Genesis and I do enjoy owning and driving it. It’s comfortable, has good power and acceleration when needed and as a low mileage preowned car it’s turned out to be both economical and dependable. I understand people’s turning their noses up at it’s mishmash design elements, But it’s never bothered

I’m working on it with my own. Getting closer to the 6 digit mark on my 04 Viper. Have just under 92k now. Bought it with 43,000 3 years ago.

Dammit. Me too. I was 15 when the IROC-Z came out. My cousin had one. Not a car that I cared for after I was about 20. Now... Yeah I’d go find a good one and save it.

Here’s what you’re missing - the Vantage GT is barebones by Aston standards, and as such there aren’t a lot of deals to be had. Whereas at the top end, there’s so much competition, Aston has to bend over to move them off lots. I paid $180k for a new V12S Roadster with a sticker of $243k. And I fucking love this car.

Remember, you’re basically only paying for depreciation with a lease. GM is saying, this car should be worth approximately $45000 after 3 years, which correlates to very good residual value in that segment. If you bought the car and tried to sell it three years later, I’d wager it would be worth less than $45000 even

“plasticky interior” has turned into meaningless drivel. It’s just code for “I don’t like the interior but I can’t/am too intellectually lazy to articulate why.”

That’s the one thing that Caddy has going for it, the V-series cars do transcend badge snobbery for some folks.

Have you gone back to watch some of the early Jon Stewart shows though? He was equally raw and almost painful to watch. There were a lot of people clamoring for Craig Kilborn to be brought back.

A similarly kitted out Charger Hellcat does not exist.

Speak for yourself. I’m partial to, and already have, the Hellcat Charger but I would buy this in a heartbeat over an R8.

This sounds like an old person complaining about cordless phones because they keep forgetting where they put it last. If you’re too old, or too stupid, for new technology that’s not the technology’s fault.

Then just take out the physical key that’s inside the fob. And I’ve dropped mine probably 20 times, they’re not made of glass.

Toy? Pffft

Arrrrrrgggghhhhhh. Look, Lotus. If I wanted something fatter and less attractive than it used to be, I'd look in the mirror. You can come out with all the other new travesties you like as long as they keep the Elise afloat, but messin' with the Elise (...in a bad way)? Ohhhh no you don't.
