These are very, very common in the middle east, specifically Kuwait and Dubai.

I can't say that I've ever noticed one of those on the road. Not that the average G37 sedan gets massive attention, but they can't have sold very many of the G25's.
At least here in the SouthEast, they are selling like hotcakes in the upper-middle and lower-upper class suburbs, and a guy I know who is a Sales Manager at an MB dealer says the ar buyers are about 80% women. He says that Benz's target audience was the spurned 40-year old divorced woman with a healthy (but not…
As a BMW driver and fan myself, I came here to post this. Specifically, automatic early ('07-'09) E92 and E93 328i. You can find clean, used examples all day long for the mid to high teens - about what you'd pay for a similar V6 Accord or Camry.
You can still get a used three-pedal wagon cheap...from Sweden. They didn't make a lot of V70R's or turbo six 9-3 Aero's with manual transmissions, but the ones that are out there can be had for a pretty reasonable sum. I am keenly aware that a 300 HP AWD stick shift Volvo is NOT in the same league as a CTS-V…
It got worse, but it was ALWAYS Fail-Wheel-Drive. Nothing FWD is "great".
I like the Crosstour and it's clear and obvious predecessor - the Pontiac Aztek. Both are hideous and amazingly undervalued on the used market.
Speed Triple! Bonus points for the fact that you have absolutely zero weather protection on that bike.
I got caught riding in a snowstorm once on a Harley. Once. F**k that. I actually enjoy riding in the rain if I'm not in a hurry, but snow is another matter altogether.
Black 1979 Corvette with a ZZ4 crate circle track motor, giant lopey cam, Nash five speed, and ankle-burners on it over two Cleveland winters. My buddies called it "the War Vette".
Like others before me, please allow me to thank you for the awesome work and the killer write up. I'd like to add that I wish I had been the one buying this from you, because that's a solid deal on a clean E46 M3, if I was in the market for such a vehicle.
According to http://www.bmwarchive.org/vin/bmw-vin-de…, my car has the M-Sport package - that, along with the different fenders and little "m" logo on the wheel, door sills, and shift knob were good enough to convince me. It's an E90 (sedan) that was originally ordered Overseas Military sales if that matters.
Louisiana used to be no-reciprocity and used heavily for title washing, but they allegedly corrected that issue. What state can you use now?
I've owned salvage title cars (3) and motorcycles (2), and driven them on the street for years in Ohio and South Carolina. If you wrench on cars yourself, pay cash, and take minimum liability insurance only - it's a great way to save thousands. However, keep writing stories like this to keep the difference as big as…
THIS. How many failed "modern morph mash-ups" of cruisers have to come out before they give up? I'm reminded of the Ducati Diavel, the Victory Vision, etc, etc.
No, Indians are way more reliable - and Guzzi has been making bikes nearly continuously instead of going through five different owners and iterations.
Then you are not even close to comparing comparable machines; please consider looking at the MSRP on websites. Those things are posted on-line by the manufacturer, you know. Apples-for-apples, H-D has had to play in the same league as heavyweight cruisers and touring bikes (Japanese, German, and Domestic) as far…
Except Triumph is only successful in the retro market under 1000 cc's. Moreover, if you think a Guzzi is going to be more reliable than a Harley (particularly when you consider the dealer networks for both), you've never owned one.
Jealousy is an ugly thing, Bubs.
The difference is the riding style and the number of miles expected out of both. Do you know how few R1's or top end Ducati's are ridden 50 or 100K miles? I'll add that my Road King was FAR more reliable than my old Yamaha Royal Star - not to mention more comfortable with better torque - but I know you're just going…
