Well we don't have much choice, but at the same time nothing seems affordable now and I am not even considering buying a new car anytime soon, and I feel like my wife and I do all right. How much is this 'Vette, probably $150k+ right?

This car isn't remotely practical. Almost 0 trunk. Tight squeeze getting in. I quickly looked at a regular C8 and said, no way.

Since I’m not blessed with limitless means, I’ve migrated to older cars that I can mod without fear of the EPA knocking at my door. Or the insurance company taking my first born.

I just got a call from a BMW dealer in Georgia this morning. He said that they had allocations for the M3 at $25K over.

I laughed, he didn't. Told him to take me off his list. Not going to buy anything at this point.

Not to mention they look like match box cars in person. Almost like a kit car cant stand the new design its just a wannabe Ferrari smh.

He just called me back and offered the order at MSRP. I guess that they're not getting any takers? I said no again. Holding steady for the foreseeable future.

I remember stories about workers going up on the roof at the Beretta - Corsica plant in Delaware and smoking angel dust on their breaks.
Some would put washers and screws into different places for the forever rattle if they were pissed off.
