Who fucking cares? I daily a lightly modded ISF. 50k miles in under 2 years, it’s loud, fast, comfortable, but only seen autox and the drag strip once(12.7@112) and some car meets/shows. Should I take it to the track every weekend to appease you too?

If new rates are 0%, or even under 2%, why would you put anything down? Get GAP, and invest the rest. Sure the monthly is higher, but the cash saved can be put into your business or savings and make money for you.

For one thing, the prices are nearly the same, with dealer experiences vastly different. A fully loaded GT is about $47-50k, while the Q50RS used to base at $47k and is now $50k, though fully loaded with more tech than the Kia it can get up to $62k or so. For another, the Q50 is tried and proven, they did have minor

Nope, they’re exactly right. I had number of G35 and G37's but the Q50 Hybrid and SS and RS are are severely dated by the 7AT. My ISF is a joy to drive, the RS feels like a fast rental car with useless tech, and is slower. It’s a great value to buy 2 years old used for $35k though..add a tune and DP and it’ll run

Looks good but also looks like a 13 refreshed Taurus. In any case, should be easy to spot in the rear view :) 

Just wait till the sea levels rise :) 

Other than the Evo, the Wrangler and Land cruiser keep their prices sky high, are very practical and snow friendly, and a newer Wrangler is nicer inside and out than any Impreza with a wing and turbo.

Kia Stinger GT AWD. High 12 second awd car, 10 year warranty. Very nice interior. $38-48k easy. Depreciation is relative, it will lose less in 5 years than a comparable Audi A7, Q50RS, S4 etc.

Coming from a  BMW to a Subaru WRX/STI is like going from a high rise condo in Miami to a shack with wireless in Cambodia.

I have about $15k saved/invested and more in the business and in car parts. I have no doubt that with kids lifestyle will change and my car hobby will take a big bite. Our home costs are split currently and I hold myself to a $3k/mo budget or so and save the rest.

Our 3 bed 2 bath with a yard would list at $250k estimated and 10min from Annapolis. Looking in Bethesda MD(within the beltway and nice and safe) same size townhouse as mine lists for $650k-1.3m. Even closer to DC even higher.

Just to give you an example, I’m in late 20's and about to get married. Combined we will still make under $100k annually until my business expands. We rent a decent townhouse in a safe neighborhood 40 min from DC in MD for $1600, will buy something for $200-260k within the next year or two once we decide on an area.

I thought Lindsey Lohan..

Good luck! Let me know how a test drive of an 11+ compares to your M3. Pro tips: In 2010 they added a real LSD, 2011 added better wheels, headlights, interior changes, and much much improved the handling/ride quality. I’ve driven a few M3 DCT and manual, and prefer the torque and interior of the F, but the steering

Good thing they’re down around $20k easy now. According to Jalops(Jalopnikians?) its a 4 door vette best thing this side of the Nile River. Just saying, other sedan options exist. Good luck finding a manual SS that listed for $55k 

It’s worth a test drive my friend! Just make sure to turn on sport mode, changes it from an ES350 to a pony car in a tux. Also, the 08-10 had harsher suspension, but most upgrade to coils anyways. The 2011+ were much improved if you can find one. Sadly total in the states are about 5,500 or so, so it may be a

Much appreciated! It’s a Borla catback, with the mufflers straight piped, so basically just bigger piping all the way down. I had regular Borla all last year(video also on my channel) but decided to go louder this year, interestingly enough with less drone. The wheels are Rays Gram Lights 57CR. I went down from 19's

Now playing

The 8 speed is actually rather good. You may have heard the early reviews since it was one of the first cars to come out with more than 6 speeds, Jeremy Clarkson as I recall hated that part about it. Same story for the “fake tips” which are now on everything lol. But now nearly everything has 8+ speeds, and it offers

They should be even faster tbh, reviews always put it in mid to high 12's, always within a few ticks of the AMG/M3. I will admit the german offerings were much cooler, but the ISF is a great daily and much cheaper to own. I’ve put 44k in just over 20 months so far on mine, zero issues.

Not really. The V is a monster both stock and especially modified. The ISF has little aftermarket and other than FI, is limited to 350-420whp(stock/fully FBO+tune). The reason I brought up the ISF is because it’s also a low number sedan that sold poorly, but is an overall nice car in the used market. The 8 speed
