What’s the thought on adding a kid to a high-limit, low-usage card and then never actually giving it to them so it’s on the report, but not a spending risk? I was added to my parents store account as a kid (with a tiny <$1000 limit) and it did help my credit, but I can’t help but wonder if being on the “Big Ticket Item…

Sorry, I must be fascist because I support private property rights.

I do it 2x a year on my newer vehicle and only 1x a year on my older car. If i go to sell a car i will pay someone to really clean it and detail it. I have a large dog that sheds a lot so my home vac and whatnot isnt getting eveyr last bit of pet hair out of the vehicle. 

My response was purposely over the top, you didn’t catch that? Also, I always thought the midlife crisis mobile was the 2-seater wannabe Corvette with less power and worse handling rather than an understated 4 -door that can lap Streets of Willow Springs in 1:25. Huh. But, seriously go check lap times and you’ll see…

Same, had one for a few years, earlier this decade, and loved every second of it, driving, and just getting out & looking back while walking the parking lot to the grocery store.

I can’t comment on the 370Z with any authority because I haven’t driven one yet, though I have always thought the styling was cool. Not completely disagreeing with you but $15k will also get you a decent 2011-2014 Mustang GT, which I think is a pretty damn good car and performance value. 

Agree 100% I love my 2010 370z

For the money, what you want is a C5 Vette.

The 370z has an amazingly short wheel base. It’s actually an inch shorter than the BRZ, 8" shorter than a Mustang. The only car I could find with a shorter wheelbase was the regular Mini Cooper.

I don’t think you’re in the minority as several others here commented they like them a lot. I don’t know why it didn’t work for me exactly. Didn’t feel like a 300+ hp sports car. It wasn’t a bad car, but I found the STI, the Civic SI, a WRX, Mustang GT, even my old 5g Prelude more engaging. A 370z felt like maybe a…

Man, once the 370z is gone for a few years, people will lust after those late model year cars. It’ll be a recent car that feels old school. All the things that make the Z seem dated now will make it timeless in the future. No infotainment? Good! No turbos? Great! Manual trans? Freaking fantastic!

Right next to my 4th gen firebird (formula)!

That’s what we call anecdotal evidence. Lungs spontaneously collapse in some people all the time (seriously), and it’s usually due to a mechanical defect. Actually, I just read the article, and that’s exactly what the problem was with this kid. He had a defect in his lung, which was discovered when his lung…

I have no strong feelings about you.

A legal (and appealing) product is bad for you? Quick, call the press!

I hate to break it to you and Kristin, but all street racing is not dumb or bad... I take it that you guys aren't big fans of 1320video? Roll racing on the interstate at 4 in the morning isn't dangerous to any motorists or pedestrians... only dangerous to the consenting parties involved, which goes for legal racing as…

This was huge news in the US the entire time. I haven’t heard a single thing about an American being on board until you said something. 

All of this was set in motion when the turks conquered constantinople in the 15th century

Gotta love it! The dealer was probably upside down on a trade in to get someone in a new SUV or something. Used Car Manager probably took it in the pants and figured they’d either sell it to a sucker or send it off to auction.

If the Iranians had not murdered a contractor, if they did not attack the Saudi oil facility, if they were not involved with the embassy breach, if they were not involved in numerous other incidents, none of this would either have happened.
