Since you said you aren’t following the Terminator Cobra market, this is actually an extremely well priced Cobra. They are rarely under 20k.

I guess I’m getting old. I was 23 when this thing came out and as the owner of a modded Fox 5.0 at the time, I was smitten over these things. They were sooo fast at the time, even in stock form. Rated at 390 HP but dynoing around 360-370, so underrated from the start. A tune, CAI, cat back and pulley would get you

I thought the mods would make this a No Dice, but it is actually priced much lower than most of the other drop top Cobras built after the midcycle refresh. The 2003 and 2004 Terminator models in particular are selling for a premium above anything from 1999-2002.

If they could make high risk Dick Cheney survive five goddamn heart attacks, they make Trump survive Covid no matter how high risk he is.

Plus the best of whatever treatment is available. But if he suffers for a while and it shuts his fucking mouth for a few weeks, I’m satisfied. 

Our company made parts for this engine and it was so violent it kept breaking the thermostat, went through about 22 design iterations before it somewhat worked. Majority of the design changes were on the fly but the program but we had a blast working on it. Fun times!

That’s a pretty impactful cleaning house on day 1 for a new CEO. All of those people knew what was coming and given the chance to leave by saving face.

He said 2.0T and FWD. None of those are FWD. Just 2.0T ain’t always bad, see Koenigsegg 2.0T TFG. Nothing good is ever FWD though.

I guess that’s fair, and to each their own. To me, it doesn’t seem sporty enough to run with the sporty german cars, it’s too much money to be an appliance car, and doesn’t seem luxurious enough to compete on the high end. Even Camrys can be hand with this level of luxury. I guess to me it fits a market segment that

The new 3 series looks pretty good. The 4 series isn’t but that’s a different story. And meh, the whole unreliability thing is overblown for the newer gen. Both my F30s have been entirely trouble free for 5-6 years now. I rather take the faster option and reliability be damned.

goddamn!

This. Also the Shelby GT350, which is only slightly more expensive than a loaded Supra yet has a manual gearbox and That Engine.

Because they know they could still buy the new Z in 10 years after they’re done with the Supra.

Perhaps they want a car some time in the next two years?

At least Mercedes said the right thing:

Particularly weird assumption since Bubba’s the Wallace who drove the BLM car.

Nah, but it’s useful ammunition in our many attempts at getting shit done.

Things change. Imagine you had made a countercyclical investment and bought auto and tire stock in April. Then you would be confused and rich now. The best kind of confused.
