Here’s a not so secret secret, insurance companies don’t want to cover anyone. That’s how they make money, by taking your money and giving you nothing in return, then when they do HAVE TO do something, they fight you for every penny hoping you give up. Then the next year they raise your rates because you dared to use… Read more

Just yesterday I bought a manual Integra, to replace my ‘22 Civic Si which got totaled (by having a Mercedes T-bone it), and it’s fantastic. I loved the Si, and the Integra is basically a very fancy Si. It’s a good upgrade. Read more

Same here. Saw a blue one and a red Corolla GR around Rancho Cucamonga/Ontario in the same day. SoCal in general is great for carspotting, whether it’s sports/super cars or quirky classics. Read more

This is a seriously valid point. A lot of people have less than 7,500 tax liability after all other credits and deductions are taken into account. It should be point of sale credit so that every individual can take advantage of the credit, and have a lower car payment.   Read more

Any time I get a chance to call out and shame a local dealer, I jump on it. Here’s a white 400Z with the sport package or whatever. This local dealer is selling it used with 123 miles for $68,250, down from a previously listed $70k. The upper management took this thing for a joyride, dealer owner bought and registered… Read more

This right here, I went with the Stinger because of the hatch and leg room, that made it possible to own something that can haul family and some stuff without without going the SUV route. Read more

I’m in this boat. I’ve got a Hummer 3X reservation (which was supposed originally slated for Fall ‘22 but my most recent email says early ‘24 at the earliest and I just missed ED1 reservations by a couple minutes so it’s an early 3X slot). Some people got emails saying late ‘25, which would mean almost 5 years from… Read more

I just rented a 2017 base model Giulia through Turo last weekend and it was an absolute joy. It’s so driver focused it really puts other cars to shame. I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I’m not a big BMW or Audi guy, so I didn’t feel like it had a lot to prove, but the tight steering, quick acceleration, and how… Read more

Friend got one a couple years ago - CPO with all wheel drive and performance package that includes the limited slip diff. Paid around $26K for it (good luck finding that price now) with around 20K on the odo. He got a MOPAR extended warrantee for up to 100K and has been loving it since. If you buy right, like you… Read more

How long does it take to become irredeemably addicted to Alpha Romeos? (I come out in hives after driving anything even vaguely 21st century, I had a Guila Quadrifolgio for week, now I keep an eye on the market price for internal organs, I would sell my sisters kidney for one of those)

The secret with this one is to buy it off lease with like 20k miles for less than $30k though. You get pretty much the same thing you are in now. Read more

I’m in the UK, so my new Grenadier is on the drive. 1,125 miles todate and no regrets. It is a massive upgrade on my old LR110CSW, but at the price it really had to be.

That’s the kind of thinking that the car makers want you to have. Don’t be one of the suckers born every minute. Read more

Not a lot of people do have that kind of cash. Thus we get into crazy debt for a depreciating asset, or we don’t get one. Catering to a rather small market is part of the problem with these companies’ business models. Read more
