Sorry you didn’t get to share your SAAB stories...

I worked two summers at a Ford dealership and we had three different instances of this happening. It’s not a super uncommon thing.

Well done nerd.

Wait, these things were over $110k new?? Great googly moogly...in that same year Ford had the GT stickered at something like $150k. (And yes, I’m sure you had to fight dealer markup in some cases.)

Phew....didn’t know the camera specifics....yeah, that’s some pretty serious cash...

Not to mention, that’s a DJI Inspire which is a couple of grand...not totally unreachable by any stretch, but that’s still a lot of cash for an amature.

I understand the gist of what the suit is going for, but there are certainly “a breed” of Vette owners that still would’ve put down the 6 figures...

I think you’re talking about the Cien (bottom picture). The Ciel is the giant convertible up there.

I actually do like those a lot. But. I feel like the Caddy is more old school, drop top luxo barge where the S63 is still a Mercedes convertible.

I think the Ciel is one of my favorite GM products ever. Especially if they’d do a V version with an LS9...

As others have noted, yes it was a 3 year run. The reason for the change (coming direct from a Ford marketing employee) is that the next gen Focus is getting ready to drop. It just took them a little too long to get the car out there in the first place.

*Used to.*

Torch! Get in here! You’re gonna wanna see this!

My first car was a ‘92 T-Bird that saw its fair share of dirt road, e-brake on the floor drifting.

?? He was shouting about his rights (politics) and then stabbed 3 people (pretty damn violent)...what more are you looking for??

Good grief...that looks like every race I’ve ever had on Forza...except he actually did it.

I feel like you guys look for a reason to bring this video back up about once a year. And I have NO PROBLEM AT ALL with that.

My dealership had 3 pre-orders come through and now has 4 just sitting on the lot. There are also at least 3 in town.

I guess I don’t follow then. Because in that situation, you end up with a car that’s less “special” because there are few of them but still no normal person can afford one.
