This is a terrible take.

This. I voted NP because it is actually. But any owner had better be prepared to spend another $4500 on anything else that will need maintenance. I also have a huge soft spot for the E38 because it just so damn gorgeous. So NP - as long as the future owner knows what they’re getting into.

You don’t have to have it set aside, you just have to be able to afford it if it happens. Listen, you can buy a $4.5k subaru and should be able to afford a $2-3k head gasket job if it pops up. This is basic stuff, it doesn’t make it a CP. You just need to know it. 

So I’m going NP but this is the type of car you don’t go into without:

That’s NP.

He’s never been wrong in his life, just ask him. Ignore the fact that he has said this would all go away in a few weeks 19 times. That’s not hyperbole, the Washington Post counted.

I came here to say exactly this.  He’s Tech-Bro-Trump.  That’s it.  

It’s hilarious when you read all of the posts saying that this is “only worth $2k.” It’s like they haven’t’ shopped for used cars in two decades.

$4k !?!? That’s at least half the price I see for any similar ones going for. Total NP even with the future clutch replacement. Ad is gone already, not surprisingly.

and the worst part isn’t the “hey, we’re rich, can you give us more money please?”

Now that you mention it... ;)

I love the absolutely tonedeaf flex of;

not even close. pandemic keeps me in. then i see this crap.

first: they are all wearing shoes in the house. that’s disgusting. f@ck them for that alone.

I want to see the deed before I even believe they own it. Based on the decorations, I bet it is a rental, just like the cars out front.

Sure, these kids are leaving a childish dream. But the constant requests for money and the shallow nature of it all really disturbs me. Whatever, maybe it’s just jealousy. I’m sure the economic system is running fine. 

Look, we don’t go to Fox Sports and complain about conservatives talking about football.  If you don’t like the lefty car blog writing about racism in Nascar, then fuck off, because you’re on the wrong site.

Here’s a free pro tip: everything is political. So are your calls for no discussion of politics.

Be honest, you’re not mad that there’s “politics” on Jalopnik, you’re mad because there’s politics you don’t agree with on Jalopnik.

It’s a hybrid, so yes, it will definitely be automatic.
