Why buy

The car does not deserve that which is why you should buy a SVT Focus with the tough love built-in.

If his job is make the organization look good he’s done a really fuckig shitty job the last few years

So because it’s inevitable the shelters don’t need the money? Cards pony up $100k and they get the cat. Done.

I agree they should sell the cat to the highest qualified bidder

If your ex is there this is a valid complaint

Didn’t know you were an Astoria ex-pat, Dave. I’ve been there the better part of a decade. It is good, though they recently hemmed the perimeter of the Steinway Mansion with warehouses so it’s almost totally landlocked and invisible from the street. A real shame. I’m guessing you have some good billiards stories.

“me and my brother in law are way above average baseball players and couldn’t hit one out of a spring training park.” is that what you’re saying?

if a 12 year old kid hit one out of camden yards they were using aluminum or composite bats, which is not a remotely similar comparison. i could hit one out with a metal bat and i suck.

1-0 isn’t a sufficient sample size

So compare that to the number of major city men’s basketball teams and the share of guys who could dunk. This is not a remotely persuasive argument.

How deep was the field?

There’s absolutely no way it’s homer. I know people who played minor league ball and they have all said unless you played in college you have zero chance of hitting the ball more than about 175' with a wooden bat. Or, more eloquently, you could maybe crank one out of a little league field if you hit it straight at the…

That’s true, sex tapes usually settle in the $140 million range

I’m not sure I would call it a tradition, but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it for at least 15 years.

I totally disagree with this. The tennis tournaments bill themselves as competitions between the best in the world. If she served her suspension, WC her to the qualifiers and make her play her way in. If she deserves to be in the draw after the layoff, she should have no issue in the qualifiers. The only reason to…

This Marauder is statistically irrelevant because there’s absolutely nothing to compare it to. There is no established “market” for 66 mile, 15 year old cars, therefore by definition there can be no “market value.” It’s an outlier regardless of sale price. If you’re lumping it into the “used Marauder” market there is…

i had an ignition switch cylinder fail and hotwired my own car. first place i drove it was radio shack to buy some switches, which i installed in the parking lot.

cars as investments is a universally terrible idea, i’m just breaking down what i think the calculus will be. if they are in no rush to get it sold (which, seems reasonable all things considered) there is someone out there who will want it, and not to put it on the road. i don’t see it being worth less as time…

i bet they get close. 30's. 40 is a little bit of a stretch, but keep in mind, whoever buys it at this price is banking on it being a $100k museum piece in 20 years when we’re all driving single-piston 2 strokes that get 400mpg.
