    There are precious few new cars I'd spend my money on. $35K will buy a lot of nice used car.

    I would not buy any 35k car new and in a year it's only worth 25 k. Someone else can take that hit.

    Can't borrow much money on the average 8 year old car.No different then a then new R-53 @ $28,000 and a years later only worth $15,000 and now maybe $10,000. It's all relative to how much can you afford to spend on a new car. They all go down in value to start with. You eventually have to be willing to spend more money or be willing to buy a used 8 year old car with 30,000-50,000 miles already on it or more. Which intern means you need to have more cash on hand as you can't borrow but so much money on the average 8 year old car.

    The best way to buy a new car is when they really want to sell one. End of the month, end of the quarter, end of the fiscal year, end of the year, end of a model.

    We got my wife's Focus ST new for what 1 year old used ones were selling for.

    The best deal I ever negotiated was 45% off sticker on the end of the model. It was a 1st gen Probe GT for my mom. The last one they had with 2nd gens on the lot. Mom loved that car.

    Smart. Only I'd put wheelie bars on it so it can be flipped on it's back.

    Why tie up the server with a new thread, when the game is already set in one?

    The cars will get better, tomorrow will be a little jump foreword.

    We do we modify our daily drivers to personalize them and they are still street legal and drivable more than a 1/4 mile and they turn and don't even get me started on the whole stupid STANCE thing.

    Yeah but evidently people are too good to want to see what the average person who buys a MINI could have.
    So whats the point...
    So the snobs can derail the game because they dont want to think about driving anything other than a $200K+ supercar?

    Honda Civic Si Coupe.
    For me it was a tough decision between the Veloster and the Civic. I like the Veloster because it is different but I think the Civic will have more aftermarket parts support and I like to modify my cars.
