@Piloter: Ha! I live in Portland, and I was going to say my biggest mistake was buying the 2001 1.8t automatic jetta I have now and can't afford to replace.

@Brian: Is that common in Z8's or something?

You are aware that the only reason Lexus is doing the deal like that is to prevent dealers from tacking on tens of thousands of dollars to the cost of what will be a rare and hard to get car, right?

Meh. A, very successful, orthopedic surgeon friend of my family's once bought a big S Class merc. He pulled 5 million a year, easy.

@Scandinavian Flick: Yep. I'll wait another year or so until this game comes out, and then start looking for a sale on PS3's. Until then, I can pick up a used copy of Forza 3 on the cheap and go to town.

@maximum-F450: Yes we did. No more Si drivetrain, no more potential customers.

Yeah, but if you can't use heel to toe who cares?

How about, for less than 45k, I buy a used GTO, drop a supercharger and suspension on it, maybe some other toys, get close to that much HP, take my lady out for a nice steak dinner, save some and spend the rest on hookers and blow.
