My own property before car

I dunno if that will happen lol

But don't worry I won't make bad choices. Its just if the Acura ends up dying I want to be able to give the Corolla back to my dad. My parents don't make that much money and they probably don't want the burden of a new car. So we'll see what happens. I'll be smart for my investments though hopefully.

Plus Sacramento is cheap, I can probably get a condo there at some point and then just rent it out, especially if I end up coming down here. Lets just see the burden of my loans though. Thats gonna be the big problem.

Not to speak for him, but Rick Hendrick doesn't sell "exotics" as far as I know.

Okay...well, let me level my question. More along the lines of Vipers and Corvettes, maybe?

And a Ford GT...?

Me too! I love Porsche

But some people don't compare them to Ferrari and Lamborghini since they have models starting in the $50k range

I was told that all AMGs from now on are going to be 4MATIC. Big thing was handling all that torque, plus it helps with the handling on the bigger sedans I'd bet.

It definitely gets better traction from a dig. It's pretty fucking quick.
