Do you see what I'm saying, though? You are not the consumer that I have an issue with Tavarish offering advice to. It's the consumers more ignorant than you. You were being a bit of a dick initially but please believe me when I say that I'm really happy that you discovered you could afford a Porsche and now you have

An equally bad idea haha under the pretence that it’s the type of buyer who ONLY has money for the car and no regard to maintenance.

Nice car, but for that money you could have had a 2006 Bentley Continental with 200,000 miles and believe it or not the maintenance isn’t that bad!

Oh hell yeah. You’ve piqued my interest.

I really resonated with this comment up till the end. If they are of a class of women specifically attracted to a type of car, I think I’d hold out for a different class personally.

That's a good thing, you do you, I'm just of the divided minority that is sick of these types of articles. You're a good writer and I miss your write ups about wrenching on weird cars that everybody wishes that they could.

I appreciate your response and I want you to know that I’m not pointlessly trolling you, I just think you used to write really interesting articles about topics that Jalop-brand enthusiasts cared about and your weekly features have devolved into this drivel encouraging shitty purchases for people with (barely) more

Edit: this is the most divisive thing I’ve ever posted, and people suddenly seem to think that I’m an idiot. I’m glad that this is encouraging discussion, honestly. Tavarish, I have nothing against you personally I just think this “cheap luxury car” thing has spiraled wildly from when you bought a W220 and fixed some

You're right, out of context that does sound goofy, but he used to write really interesting articles I just happened to reference two about Toyotas. I'm actually not a supra fanboy haha.

But that is NOT the pathos of the ad. That's a lovely way to market someone else's toy, but that's not what Tavarish does. That's all I'm saying.

Who the fuck would actually think this is a good idea. This is essentially predatory advertising. Some poor idiot is going to see this and think this is a better idea than the 2010 S-Class he was looking at. Anyone with enough money to afford both the car and the maintenance probably has enough sense to not purchase

Brief opinion:

Some say... that his credit score... is negative.

Holy shit this is the best day ever!!!!! Thanks man!! That actually just massively improved my day.

Lol @ “two VR4 engines,” thanks for that one.

I’ll apply for additional lines of credit with you if we can share it.

תודה רבה brother!

You don’t think the R8 has fanboys?

If I was a Camry owner I’d think about drive-by shooting the Toyota dealership on a regular basis.

I saw a 2CV on the road for the first time in my life yesterday in downtown Austin. It was a whirlwind of emotion.
