NP. Quick check online reveals two surprises: there are a lot of these for sale out there and this one would be among the lowest priced and lowest mileage examples. The real surprise? That so many commenters don’t realize Ferraris are expensive mistresses. Just because you can’t afford it doesn’t mean it’s crack pipe.

lol

I used to think so too until I got in the mood to listen to it a bit ago. Teenage me thought it was a masterpiece. There’s a ton of still good tracks on the album, but there’s also a ton of floaters especially as you get towards the end of the 2nd disc. Listening to it now, it comes across as extremely self indulgent. 

Finally, a video that belongs on Deadspin.

...that expansion came from the moon!

He would have been just fine with a turbo-4 under the hood as would most prospective Vette buyers.  I guess people don’t realize how much performance you get for the money even with the non Z06 Stingrays.

I can say that my father’s cousin spent five years talking about buying a Corvette and wound up pulling the trigger on a Z06 shortly after the C7 came out. He traded it in for a Bolt before I even had a chance to see or drive the car. He never admitted why but I suspect the Z06 was way too much car for a 65 year old…

Seriously. I want my car to punch me in the spleen, so that when it doesn’t, I have conquered a mighty feat.

People have performance envelopes, the same way cars have performance envelopes. Some people just know theirs. Besides not wanting to be the old dude in the Corvette, I have gotten my last half a dozen cars based on my diminishing performance envelope, probably the same as this phantom buyer. There are plenty of old…

The three electric motors give you the ability to drive about 16 miles on the battery alone, using just the front axle. They can allegedly get the car up to speeds of 84 mph and you can only reverse in electric mode.

Yep, and they can be surprisingly fast. 

I call b.s.

I’ve seen them race before, so yeah.

If it doesn’t depreciate by 40% in the first three years, and replacement parts don’t cost three times the price of normal parts, then it’s not a luxury car.

I’ll actually be in town for this, so please come and chat about the 4,500 cat photos on my phone

1) The 15% loss is an extremely antiquated assumption. Modern drive trains are much more efficient.
