Which one?  What are you getting to replace?
Don't fight it.  The sooner you get it the better.

Every time I back the Highlander out now, I see the Miata asking "when, when, when??"

Actually it's saying: "Please move to Vancouver".  Just tell it you'd have to sell it to afford housing.  That'll shut it up.
And some cretins think I hate cars.

... just a not really funny bad joke!? ...  chain of thought ... awesome chassis, could put any engine in it to make a great race car! What is the most unsports car ? Corolla!! So a High Out Version of the Corolla Engine will still make it an awesome racer.

I must be getting old

Considering 1/2 that price gets you a 1980 Westie with a trillion kms and rust and lots of problems, that's actually not a bad price.

Took my neighbour's '14 Vette for a rip today.  I'm a Porsche guy and I told him I felt like a hooligan driving his car, but I certainly enjoyed it.  I'll take a Z51 2LT  7mt in Shark Grey with black wheels.   That drive will end up costing me $80k.

Not really a car but I have been getting a bit of an eyebrow twitch for this.



Various mags have the Polestar flashed car at 5.0 compared to ~5.5 for the vanilla car. Such a time would be quite similar to my old CLK. Plus that little blue square would look pretty neat against the grey paint.
