Pops came over today. Trying to dial down on what classic we want... I think we are leaning on a swb c-10 because al the things you can do to it.
Told him about the scat, he gave me this like wtf are you kidding look. He made me realize I would probably be throwing away an somewhere near 5k a year buy owning one.
I'm sure the thing takes premium gas which is like .50-$1.00 more a gallon over here in Fuckmeintheass California.
I'll fill up more often because I'll be going from a 24/36 mpg car to a 15/20, but knowing damn well it would be more like 13/20, because I don't drive highway anymore and I'll be getting loose on the streets.
Car insurance goes up by $80 a month. I called my insurance and asked for a quote.
Car payment would probably go up $100-$200 a month.
Can I afford it and still live, yea. Is it financially responsible, probably not. Would it be bad ass to have one, hell yes. It's not fully off the table, but it's something I'm not going to jump into. If something comes along and the numbers check out then I would work something out. I said the same about the Explorer

I mean.. a scat pack is basically what the bumblebee package was right?
Just get a gently used 2nd gen SRT for a fraction of the cost.
What would you get.. a chally or charger?
I think the chally is the better looker, but the new charger is great looking.
Plus utility for the kiddos.. Charger.
I mean if you just want the engine, brembos, and basic shit.. a superbee 392 especiale goes for low 20s..
https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/d...2434/overview/ (basic bitch)
https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/d...8815/overview/ (optioned out bitch)
Otherwise a gently used scat pack is 10k more.. I like this teeflii bitch

I love the Charger. The Challenger has always been nice, but the previous iterations of the Charger were brutal. The front and back of the Charger these days remind me of a storm trooper helmet. I love it.

Flip gun sell d'Accord and pick up a 1996 Ford Explorer.

would you rather have one 50K car? Or a fleet of used cars to fuck around with?
Team Owner
I think I'd go with the fleet, myself. I don't think I can settle on just one car to do everything. No such car exists. Some get close, but still.
The only caveat with the fleet is I wouldn't want one I'm always repairing. Minor modding? Sure. Maintenance? Sure. Occasional repairs? Sure. But chasing one thing after another gets annoying, really quick for me.

I totally agree, man...I think if I still had my stellar garage and oodles of free time I wouldn't mind. Life right now doesn't lend itself to that either though.
Fleet for sure. Experience a bunch of different cars!

Plus one of your whips is a 50k car.

It kills me to drive an auto, but at least it comes with a PDK. I'm sure I can live with that. Used Turbo for 82k? Hmmm.... :ponders:
Team Owner
I hate SUVs/CUVs. But at least this thing is sport based. I don't need a lot of room. I could use the higher ride height (driving through construction sites in the Nismo... )... Good power, Good handling, Room for Tobey.. I dunno... I like it. It is pricey to maintain and mod... probably wouldn't mod at all. Just stack dollars for when repairs come

Just sit in garage drive once a year.
Team Owner
What else would you consider in the category of the Macan? Besides the RDX Elite. That's too rich for my blood.
Team Owner
Honestly, it would be my daily, with the nismo being for fun. My daily would be way faster than my fun car.
Might end up selling the Nismo then. But I'd have to replace it with something. The problem is... what? If anything, I'd go cheaper than the Nismo. I'd maybe shoot in the 30-35k CAN range.

You'd be a fool to pay more for the Turbo version..
Taco goes and buys the Turbo version.
