Any car can be an unreliable pain in the ass if not maintained and ill-treated.

Convince your wife to buy it.

That Audi is... polarizing. I think it looks absolutely hideous at first glance but knowing that the design cues came from the old Auto Union streamliners, it’s kind of cool in that way. That Bentley is definitely the better looking of the two though.

It’s not exactly a secret that Italian cars are unreliable pains in the ass.

You have never owned an Italian car, yet you somehow know all about owning them? 

Pretty sure those are douches, dude.

Giugiaro was at his very best when he penned this car. The copper paint somehow makes it even better.

During the last recession my dad snapped up a fully loaded C6 Z51 package for 50K and 0% interest with no money down. I would pull the same hat trick on a new C8, if it weren’t for the two kids and substantially less income...

This is why I drive old stuff, you can tell what it is.

Fuck me. I really like how this looks.

It looks like yet another grey crossover thing. Throw anyone’s badge on it and nobody would know the difference.

Because it works and nobody is making them change it.

It is really nice with mild hybrids, but I got that off in my diesel. plug in the cable and 2 minutes of work and it does not turn on automatically

That’s a Fiber Optic Termination Hub. Wayne’s local telco/ISP will soon be advertising ‘fiber to the home’, if they’re not already.

I didn’t say you’d never have to fix them. I said they are rewarding to own. They won’t be as reliable as a Camry but they will also never be as mundane as a Camry. There is a give and take. What I am saying is if you follow routine maintenance to a tee (ex: 7500mi oil change means drive MAX 7500mi, not: start

He was talking about poop. 

Damn, I love The Untouchables. It’s basically a simple good-vs-evil morality play with Costner as the whiter-than-white G-Man facing off against De Niro’s hell-spat-this-guy-back-out gangster, but is prevented from becoming too sentimental and hokey with the kind of absurd graphic violence that only the 1980s could

Yada yada yada . . . something something “cheap German cars” something something. To which I say: Nice Price!
