Audi Q8

EXACTLY

How bout that Camaro rear end?

No .

The newer domestic muscle cars are really taking a nose dive style-wise imo. I'm not really a fan of the new Camaros either. At least Dodge holding the line with the Challenger and not caving to some ty redesign. I have a '13 GT and I feel that was the last good looking Mustang they made. I'll probably pay it off and supercharge it. For an additional 10-15k I can have a car that looks good and can outrun that new Vette.

Not willing to risk a ticket and hiked insurance premiums over some thrill-seeking "fun". You've got to be crazy.

Gas fill compartment on the right (wrong) side of the car. That's a dealbreaker for me. I'm not about to pull up to some gas station and give some darky a chance to rob me while I'm filling my tank.

Is there anything you aren't afraid of Andrew?

That's what I was thinking of doing. I have an 11' Vette and I was looking into either dropping a Whipple blower in it or just trading it in for a C7 Z06 when the C8 drops.

you just know he’s that guy who crosses the street every time he sees a black guy walking on the same side he’s on

Its only acceptable as a man in Texas to get a truck. this cute vehicle is for ur wife.

nah, if true I'd rather move up north or out west to be in a much less toxic "masculine" culture, where I'm not expected to have a truck, love dogs or drink whisky to fit in, tbh.

If it's a stranger (especially one with a chain and tats), yep. But I do find black friends at work, we mostly talk football and basketball. I only trust black males that are educated.

How big of a pussy do you have to be that you base car purchase decisions on whether or not you have to walk around the vehicle to pump gas, because somebody might mug you? I guess when you're 5'5" and 120 lbs you make an easy mark. Just keep some pepper spray in your purse, Andrew. Either that or grow a pair of balls.

his logic is flawed either way because if you're that big of a pussy a potential mugger won't be deterred by the fact you can more easily access the gas pump

VMP has some sick ing blowers out now for the Coyote. Their Gen 3 runs about 8k, but it's all that will ever be needed as its adjustable down to the 600's or up pushing 1000. There's a guy that has one that has put some vids up on Youtube of him breaking 10 seconds in the quarter.

I'd like to settle in between 700 and 800hp. Still daily driveable but I can also take to the track and toss some drag radials on it and have a little fun.

Nice ing ride. I have a 14' Escalade I just finished paying off and might get a new SUV. Speaking of rides, what do you all think about the new Vettes?

the new vette reminded me of this

but its not that bad to me. its going to sell like crazy, my only gripe is the interior. that dashboard is u-g-l-y

Have you looked at the Jag SUV? I like it a lot.

nah ill check it out. you thinking of buying?

Andrew is right, tbf. Cars are a depreciating asset and money pits. I've put close to 10k into my GTI already and still have a bigger turbo, clutch upgrade, accompanying tune, and probably a LSD to go (another 8k+). I'm sure I'll find more stuff for it to splurge on too.

[FkLA]

I paid 60k for it as a 2 year old car w/ 22k miles on it.

A 2 year old Ferrari costs a load more than 60k

Holy that's a load of money for a car brah. I want to upgrade to Audi eventually but I'll probably settle for an S4.

It was a stupid purchase, no doubt, I kinda got lucky when it got totaled.

Any S series Audi is going to be really nice so you’d be doing just fine imo.

I was - looked at the Audi, Jag and RR, but decided to go with the Jeep Grand Cherokee. Got a model I liked with some upgrades and I go camping a lot etc with the wife and friends so thought it would be better for that. Happy with it but really liked the other cars too.

While cars are not investments in any way, and should be classified as a toy beyond a certain point, it's all about about ratios. It isn't for me to say that a billionare can't drive a certain vehicle because it's "unnecessary". And it isn't Andrew's job to critique other people's vehicle purchases just because his BB&B wage only gets him so much.
