Cars We Drive!

[flipstah]

As a "car guy" I'm not sure whether to be embarrassed or proud of the fact that I have no idea who makes this SUV . In all seriousness it's really sharp and I love the color!

Sleep soundly knowing that the next owner gets the benefit of your attention to detail/maintenance schedules (and coilovers)!! Some dude's going to test drive it and say, "Wow, this S3 handles WAY better than I thought it would!"

Haha it's a 2017 Lexus RX350!

Why thanks she was my baby but time for another chapter to begin.

Yeah the EV9 is way too big for SB but I have been giving the same advice to people - get whatever EV in the class you want is leasing best.

There are phenomenal leasing opps for EVs right now so I would start with the best deals and then figure out whether you care enough to spend more for a "better" EV in the class.

Kia Nero for $199 a month sounds pretty good to me, but there are lots of other opportunities out there (leasehackr shows a bunch).

Is this site only for SoCal?

Dragged my wife and daughter to the last Cars & Coffee of the season at the Lars Anderson Auto Museum this morning. Lots of cool stuff both old and new. I hadn't seen/heard a Huracán Sterrato before. Also of note was a 1969 Porsche 912 with the little 1.6L 4 cylinder. The owner had a laminated copy of the original window sticker, priced at $5900.

In a sea of M3/M4's this Misano blue M2 CS with the gold forged wheels has to be peak modern BMW. I'm sure there are M cars that perform better but this was a nice evolution of that first gen M2.

"While Zuckerberg was at it, he had the shop customize a manual GT3 Touring in the same slate gray, making a his and hers driving duo."

Even Zuck, one of the wealthiest men in the world had to buy a Cayenne before getting an allocation for a GT3.

Why would Zuck, a man who can afford the highest quality projects, commission West Coast Customs to build a hack job that his whole family would be driving around in??

Why does his family need to drive anywhere -- why don't they all meet in the Metaverse with their legless avatars?

Is this what the kids refer to as a flex?

A real flex would be a Porsche 911 ST. A GT3 Touring is so 2023.

Edit- of course he gets one of the most blandest colors possible. Some random shade of cement.

Incorrect. It is not hyperbole to say Porsche peaked at 991.2 GT.

991.2 GT3 Touring or a 991.2 911R

Zuckerberg continues to demonstrate that regardless of the money, power, and influence he amasses, he will always be a corny, try-hard dork.

Actors in motorsports is nothing new. Steve McQueen, Paul Newman, Patrick Dempsey, Fassbender, etc.

Now we can add John Wick to that list!
