Also, re: your ‘slow as shit comment’. horsepower is the easiest thing in the world to add. You can’t add engineering into a car. The E46 is handily ‘out-engineered’ by both the S2K and FRS.

Dude, I literally just told you in this thread I picked the FRS over the E46 M3. I know the car well, my old man had one when they were brand new. I drove it extensively.

‘Have to rip at 5k’ - that’s how I know you’re a ‘fauxthusiast’.

Looked at an E46 M3 and an S2000 before I purchased an FRS. The S2000 felt significantly quicker at just about any speed than the E46, even though they’re roughly on equal terms re: straight-line performance.

My life and general state of being have greatly improved since deleting facebook from my life 6 yrs ago. Haven’t missed it a single day.

Go work for the IRS hard guy. Or just STFU and try to focus on the fact that this beauty is daily driving an F40.

Your grapes are so sour.

You hate it cause you aint it.

Come again? The Ford Focus comes with a Dual Clutch Transmission?

Oh no I totally agree with your last point, that’s kinda what I was (unclearly) insinuating - I used the words ‘bargaining agreement’ but yes, a strike is absolutely required to formally transfer the wealth from old to young.

Fair enough but that doesn’t address my first (and main) point that the owners are figuring out that paying for past performance and a depreciating asset is a dumb investment.

That’s kinda my point - if 100 FAs aren’t getting signed, there’s likely a good reason. A transition to younger players makes sense. EXACT same thing is happening in NHL, except now they’re starting to pay those younger players (McDavid, Matthews). They’re simply a few years ahead of the MLB in terms of the…

Meh, you’re talking about inflation. To me that has little to no bearing on multi-million dollar player contracts. If an owner has emptied his pockets for an unsuccessful post-season run, it makes sense they would want to cool their jets shortly thereafter.

Admittedly, I’m not a big baseball guy, so I don’t know much about the true ‘value’ of certain baseball players.

Do what they should have done in the first place - replace the flat 4 with the Supercharged 1.8L from the Elise. Add some sticky tires (Mich Super Sport 4S) and voila, GT86-R.

Or, he’d risk losing his client by insisting his client sit when it’s his client’s openly stated intentions that he wants to play.

Ya it’s crazy that the team he’s contractually obligated to play for is playing him. It’s especially crazy when you consider that AD’s number one priority right now is ‘just to play basketball’, regardless of location.
