I like the Hellcat. Was a huge fan of the Shelby GT350 at Barrett-Jackson this year, and I got in the Z06 while I was there (instant boner?). But, however much I like them, I want something more conceivable as a daily driver at the moment. I know I will never put all of those horses to use unless I get on a track, so it just doesn't make sense at the moment (granted, not a whole lot tends to make sense about an $80k car to begin with).

If you can't afford to fix it, you can't afford to own it


I completely agree. The point is, I don't want to have to fix it lol. Even if I had millions laying around, I don't want to pay some ridiculous repair bill. Example: T-Pain and the Veyron - radiator problem on the Veyron, repair was $90,000. So, he said fuck that, then sold it. (Granted that is on a whole different scale of what I'm talking about, but same idea).

I like the idea of 'if something breaks, you fix it', so for now on, my daily driver will always be on warranty. I will swap up before manufacturer warranty expires. I got tired of fixing my old Jeep every two weeks, so I bought the car I have now (the jeep is still a toy, but not something I have to rely on). If it is a classic that I can fix myself, that's a different story. But I don't have the equipment or knowledge to deal with all of the computer stuff in newer vehicles.

I really like the idea of a tesla but i think the lowest is 80 some thing + Options, and the lower models actually have shorter range, supercharge stations aren't common enough near me for them to make sense.

Not that i could buy a Tesla anyhow ahaha.


Hmm, I didn't even consider a Tesla. There are charge stations all over the place in the Phoenix area.

Why do you ask rhodes? Your glass business booming?


It is. If all goes well, I hope to clear 6 figures this year. Just have to see how the rest of the year goes. I don't really plan on buying a higher end car for a while, but I'm looking around (I want a house or townhome first - don't want a nice vehicle without a garage of my own to put it in). Once I get everything else squared away, I will probably get a decent truck to pull a boat (hard to believe, but there are big lakes in the desert all around Phoenix lol)

Real pussy magnet


I do like the look of it, but don't know much about it. I have yet to see on in person.

Go with something refined imo, like a used mercedes, porsche, jaguar, or maserati. For the price range I might be pushing my luck here, but hopefully find something still under factory warranty and no aftermarket garbage.
