The parts bin interior is a major turn off, and if you don’t have a dealer that’s been in business since the car was released they’re extremely difficult to service. And parts availability especially for electronics is touchy. But they are stunning to look at.

Yeah I know the car world has changed a lot in the last year, but manual volantes seem to still be in the 45k range (I debated going to look at one for 35k last year, but couldn’t stomach the champagne paint). The manual coupes used to be in the 40’s too, but I haven’t seen one for sale in probably 9 months so once…

No, it’s this pervasive attitude of “poor people don’t deserve things” that someone else pointed out, and then piously lecturing everyone about how right and rich you are. Especially given that he’s read exactly one article on a fucking video game site about it.

totally agree so if we’re going apples to apples here and if you can’t afford unsocialized medicine (like vet care) then you shouldn’t have kids. Right? get off your high horse. the dog could be a rescue. You don’t know shit about this situation and you don’t know shit about his family

I bet you couldn’t afford kids without socialized medicine so I’m sure you don’t have any, otherwise kindly shut the fuck up

Not to mention that most high power sportbikes have, you know, windshields, and anyone going over 100 with any frequency is in full armor.

Hey man I’m not a McLaren engineer

I loved when they asked the McLaren engineers about how the elva would deal with an acorn that bounced off the tarmac and they basically said it would kill you. Some things just don’t need to exist.

rolls royce got paid $28m and couldn’t find a few hundred to buy a fucking steadicam for these pan shots? honestly this looks like it was shot by a monkey who figured out how to use an iphone.

When I drove 4000 miles a year, no not really (RX-8, which has its own “features” for additional running costs)

Let’s slow down. “IF” you didn’t spring for the option package that included the nav. Given those packages are usually like $5k, your average leasee is better off paying the $850/yr, especially because Audi will probably include it anyways as an incentive. Hell, if you’re gonna own the car for 5 years you’re probably…

“Have you purchased a car from one of these posts? If so, I want to know.”

this just happened to me. i bought an A3 that had been sitting for 4-5 months in september for a great price, it got totaled in december, and by january when they had to comp it out i managed to walk away with my deductible and over $2k in cash. now i have an s3, so everyone wins (including my insurance with their…

Which C&C? I’m in the area. 

Easy way to get them to stop shooting at you

If that’s the first car you can afford, it’s also the only car you can afford on there at the moment. They had like a 2013 A4 the other week. It’s really enjoyable to see the one or two random “we’ll throw....... this one in for your daughter if you buy the CCX”

Seriously, they have a MC12 sandwiched between two different 8c’s on their website right now.

This must be at Miller Motorcars. The used car section on their website is hilarious. They keep Cullinans in the back lot. “Oh the 812? Yeah we got some new inventory in. Move that to the garage, we’ll put the Huyara in the side lot so we can put the DB4 Zagato in front”

I work tangentially to the insurance business (not auto, but still) and it bothers me immensely that mitigating the carrier’s risk too often is the responsibility of the insured. In some cases it makes sense (i.e. if you have a huge hole in your roof, you can’t just say you want a settlement before you put a tarp over…
