Good news USED RL owners

Just watching CNBC and they had a quick clip of some guy over at Manheim Auctions sayin how used car prices have jumped since the beginning of the year and plan on staying that way for probably the next year or two (obv cuz it's a recession and peoples spending habits changing)

Anyway... a while back I made a post about how my RL actually gained value and this reaffirms my discovery.

I'm sure having a nice USED Acura RL with SH-AWD is a GREAT investment (for a car) during these tough times.. which is one of the MAIN reasons I bought the car. I wanted a car that would BARELY lose value and it has done exactly that, even gain a little value... Man, I feel so good especially after getting a great deal from the greedy car salesman haha.

bottom line: used RLs FTW come selling time, if that ever happens! such a nice car!

hell my 03 TL depreciation has suddenly halted for about 2 months now.. sweet!

Bad news for someone like me who is loosely considering getting into a cheap, used 2005 to use as my winter car, though.....

Ahem,,,,

You traded a well cared for, uniquely modded 06 RL for the CTS-V so you could go back and buy an 05 RL as a second (third) vehicle and likely pay more for the 05 used RL than what you traded your 06 RL for?

Have you been wearing your lead vest when radiation is present? Try this...shake your head back and forth. Now, do you hear something diminutive rattling around in there?

The holidays are approaching. No need to further empower the wifey with her already accurate assessment of your reward system.

Well, I did say loosely!

Yeah that is true....

Between you, your brother Darryl and your other brother Darryl you might have half a brain.

crap....I was not fast enough.

Bob killed off his other brother Darrly before my post accepted.

Someone call the cops. Tell them to look in the trunk of the CTS-V.
