Agree that this is a special case, but where’s the seller getting that 14k figure from? 

How hard would it be to swap in lighter springs?

Yup. KBB says $3500 for private party sale. That might not reflect the current insanity of the used market, but the asking price is still too high. 

Love the E38, although my preferred version would be the 740i. The parallel spoke wheels are one of the best-looking OEM wheels ever imho. God knows what gremlins may be hibernating in that engine or electronics, and based on KBB’s $3,500 private sale value, I gotta vote ND. I know the used market is insane right now,…

Office staff assembling cars?

Atsa big chunk of change to pay for a car with unproven reliability and questionable build quality. (never mind mfr support) But, I guess it’s about being first for the intended buyer.

One of my friends had a GPz 750 turbo after high school. (30 something years ago) The boost was the best part of that scooter. 

Which will naturally double as a side stand!

Maybe that’s where Castellano fucked up - he shoulda stashed his ill-gained cash in a mattress. 

While these aren’t tire-smokers, they look like a fun weekend car. I’d be looking for a wrecked Charger R/T to donate its 5.7 to the cause after purchase though. Or, if you need more boogie than that:

And pull the seat off the post.

This is bullshit. It’s his kind of idiocy that makes all of us general aviation pilots look bad to the non-flying public. A one-year suspension isn’t a strong enough message imho - it should’ve been a revocation. Now I’m curious to see what other legal issues come of this for this twat. 

Right, those two lunatics from Red Bull. As a pilot I’m curious about the technical aspect of it, but as a human I’m fascinated at the potential idiocy.

That shifter looks like it came from one of those 12V electric cars for kids. 

If only the Vette had more organic curves like the 296 instead of looking like the angular mess it is.

Ferrari Is Always The Answer.

Last year some high school twat made a snide comment at the supermarket about my wife wearing a mask. Her mother doubled down, saying people wearing masks were idiots. Had I been there I’m sure I would have launched into a foul-mouthed tirade at the both of them. Mind your own damn business, indeed. 

While it technically wasn’t a bailout, Ford did get a $5.9B loan from the DoE under the AVTM program in Sept 2009. 

Curious to know if you got the usual But mah 1st Amendment bullshit from that guy, not understanding that the 1st doesn’t protect you from consequences. 

I’ve heard of blood diamonds, but are blood emeralds a thing?
