Then again, if it comes down to choosing between turf or surf...I'll always choose surf. Seafood FTW.

I would eat surf MORE than turf too. However, I have to meat a beef quota or I don't feel right. If I go four or five days without any beef I start craving it.

Game meats you just can't do roasts or steaks of IMO. But they are perfect to be ground up and mixed with things. So...tacos...chili...etc.

So, Taco...I'm probably going to hell for this...but, the bad-voice in me tells me the inferno in FM was started by the oil companies to find an excuse to drive up the price of gas and stop production...?




I'm going to hell, aren't I...?

Actually I dont think you're too far off. If anything, I feel they were slow to react to the Wild fire in the first place. And part of me keeps thinking that was on purpose.

There was big layoffs in that town. Economy was suffering. People had mortgages they couldn't pay. What do you? Burn it all down. Insurance covers the losses. Rebuilding stimulates the local economy. People aren't losing homes they can't pay for. Hmmmm...

I mean, I rarely buy into conspiracy theories...but, the moment I saw the inferno break out and in that area...I can't help but think what I thought.

Feels too...convenient.

There's an Imola Orange 2005 NSX with the imola orange leather interior for sale on NSXprime right now. Original owner, low mileage, last Imola to come out of the factory. He wants 109,000 US for the car. That's more than it went for new. It's obviously been on sale for awhile and clearly no one is biting.

I have a feeling that nsx prices are peaking out. It seems there are plenty of high priced NSXs available but people aren't really going for them anymore. Hopefully prices come down a bit!!

Maybe it's just me, but I'd rather list such a car for 80-85k and sell it in a few weeks, rather than hold on to it for another year as it continues to take up garage space, hoping to even get 100k for it.

There was a time when you could get a gently used NSX (albeit circa 1990s generation) for $50K-$65K CAD. Talk about inflation.

Yes I agree. He also admits that he bought the car brand new in 2006- that means he likely got it for much cheaper as acura was probably trying to liquidate any remaining stock of NSXs. Ridiculous.

Mind you, if I was BoostedJack-rich, that NSX would be mine. Even if it's a few bucks overpriced.
