Daily driver is a 1996 Tacoma 4-banger. The small version. Bought it brand new off the lot and driven ever since. 315,000 miles so far. Oldest in the fleet is a 1949 Plymouth SuperDeluxe with a flat 6. Last one is a 1955 Mercury Monterey 4 door sedan.

52-year-old VW 181 “Thing” - occassional driver only, due to insurance restrictions, but still a “driver.” Doing some minor “wrenching” on it now to get it back on the road.  It probably has over 300K miles and has gone thru three engines and one transmission rebuild since it became part of the family, 11/13/73.

My Focus ST 136 months old, or just over 11 years old. Still love it. 

My car is a ‘93 Honda, my wife dailies a ‘96 Toyota, and we keep an ‘03 Ford Focus around in case the other two have issues. But only the Ford ever breaks, of course.

Winner, winner, pancake dinner.

I could’ve spent less and had an easier trip back if I got it in silver, but why would I do that when this yellow was an option?

Seriously, what the fuck are y’all trying to do to me? Between this and the $20K Bentley in Vegas earlier this week (not a NP/ND car), I mean you’re telling me I can have a total of 22 combined all luxury cylinders for $35K all-in? $1,600 a cylinder? 1002 combined horsepower? For $35K? I mean, shit, I can use one to…

Is a badging delete an option on the rear lid of the 2008 Cayman? Or is there something else sketchy going on?

I’ve never owned a Porsche, and thought maybe I should do a year with one, and at first glance maybe this one. Then you see the miles, and the Home Depot headliner fix and think maybe this seller is... not my kind of seller.

Oh yeah, getting a ticket is bad. Getting a ticket from a cop in a Dodge Neon is salt in a wound.

“Beautifully milled piece of ash” has a bit of a similar smug air as, “rich corinthian leather”.

I wonder if you could talk him down in price with some carefully chosen insults about Jane Fonda?

Agreed, voted ND because the owner is cringe. These cars aren’t rare and this isn’t a special price. You can get a base Cayman for 15-20k all day from someone who isn’t an annoying boomer

“a beautiful milled piece of ash”

The Fairfax area in Northern Virginia had some really weird undercover cars for a while.

Honestly this is is a borderline case in my eyes, but it tips ND due to the smoldering assholery of the seller’s text. I know the Borla doesn’t add “significant” power, the fake carbon fiber crap isn’t tasteful, and sticking a piece of wood on the headliner isn’t a fix.

Try saying “beautiful milled piece of ash” in Sean Connery’s voice.

Agreed. I want to like it, but too many red flags, including “beautifully milled piece of ash” to fix the headliner. I don’t want to find out what else he decided to “fix” with wood. Or interact with this guy at all. ND.

Those carbon fiber side vents look absolutely terrible.
