Correction:

Dude. Tell me more.

Yea I never got that. Bentley’s have huge drops. A 10 yea old Flying Spur will be 50 grand. A 12 year old Phantom will still be 100.

I’ve been working on the courage to put together a video series showing the V12 e38 is really not any worse than the V8 but I partially like the “internet” thinking they’re disasters because it keeps them cheap and extra special in enthusiasts eyes. I also don’t really have accesses to a similar V8 version to compare

Yea that’s dumb. Alot of those buy here pay here places push luxury cars with high payments on people that wanna ball on a budget. One of the worst dealerships near me, Reposses Auto sales always has does.

A Flying Spur for “new 5-Series” money is pretty tempting.

If you go older, into the Corniche and Eight era, you can pick up one for less than $20k all day long in perfectly good order. Simpler to work on too. Big DIY community. If I ever “make it” to afford a toy car more expensive than a used Miata, a Bently Eight is high on my list.

Do you really have to ask?

When Volkswagen introduced their very first water-cooled, front-engine/front-drive car, the K70 (formerly an NSU) in 1970, they celebrated by taking their press photos in an alternate dimension where the skies as well as the land was composed of rich gray gravel.

Is your first point in reference to the 325e Patrick owns? Cos the 325e is a six cylinder. Iirc, it’s a 2.7 liter version of the M20 with a different head and a much lower redline.

Moar stars!

I hear you, since I have studied economics. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people are incredibly ignorant and are convulsed with fear that something will be “unfair”. This majority is perfectly happy for all the gas to have been sold and no more be available, as long as the last gallon was sold for about $2.18.

This is the truth. It’s not “gouging” when the demand curve moves to the right in the short run and the supply curve doesn’t move.

This, exactly.

Love it.

Bullshit. You got this from a never-went-to-production 70s cop buddy show called “High And Mighty” and this was their ad poster.
