used 2011+ mustang 5.0


C6 Vette is you want to go a few years older.

BRZ

I'm not a Miata Fan, I consider them to be older people cars or 16 Year old first cars (older Models) Just not my cup of Tea. Not Going to Dog them and say they are shit. I just think 16, 45+ or Gay when I see someone driving it.

It could very well be better than the BRZ in everything, but I don't care lol. Not buying a Miata.

I have a C5 and Love it, but I didn't want to pay the difference for a C5 to a C6 (was around 8gs)

I like the 2011+ Mustang GTs as well. Thought about getting a 2013 GT a few weeks back to pair in the garage, but the wife wants a New Bathroom instead.


As for AZN, I love the C7, but not a Fan saying Money=Better than Me. Its the Shit that makes me Say My Gun=Better than your Dead ass. I deal with with people who were Givin money from Family, and don't know shit, but they think there better than me because Daddy had a Bank account when he died. They don't know how to run a business, show up to work, get a job or pay bills. But its ok, because they are wealthy from mommy/daddy. You talking about money does make you look ignorant.

Fair enough, less the "my gun = better than your dead ass." Now that comment is just ignorant. The moment you lose your cool and resort to violence, you've just lost the logical argument.

As for "financial success," I'm self made. I will say yes, I'm fortunate that my hard work was fruitful, but to say I have money because of mommy/daddy is inaccurate. Both my parents immigrated to this country with nothing and worked hard to provide me with as many opportunities as possible. When I see people who most likely were born with more opportunities and/or didn't work as hard, yet try to claim "equal" footing as me, that irks me because it discredits my hard work. Kind of silly, but here's a comparable. If you studied your ass off for weeks on end to get an A a test and the teacher decides to curve all the scores (giving everyone else an A too) it is kind of unfair to you. Those students do not have the right to say they "did an equally good job."

In my opinion, all it takes to qualify someone as a car guy is if they like the cars they own. A guy who buys 100 cars, but never drives any of them is not really a car guy. But a guy who owns an older JDM is as much of a car guy who owns an R8; assuming they both enjoy the fuck out of their car.

Now whether that enjoyment comes from building a car from scratch, driving it hard on spring mountain, taking it the track, etc, its all the same difference.

I think people that compare themselves to others have giant character flaws regardless of their position on the totem pole.

I disagree. Comparing yourselves to others is a great way to gauge where you stand. It allows those who are motivated enough to set goals for continual improvement.

Truth is, people are not equal and society naturally will reward those who are "better." Whether it be better looking (easier to find a mate), better physical genetics (good at sports), better brain (successful in career), etc... Of course you should still treat others with respect, but just because you treat the janitor with as much respect as you treat the CEO, doesn't mean they're on equal footing (if that janitor ever steps out of line, the CEO will still fire him).

problem is that 99% of us are financially insignificant to 1% of us. unless you have 8 digits of net worth you are just another ant at the bottom.

yeah then the janitor murders him in the parking garage and wins the race. nothing anyone ever does will trump the fact they can get murdered and lose it all.

Yay lose argument. Gets angry. Resort to violence. Much typical! Very educated.

Lots of murder talk lately on jsp people. Seems like entire forum is filled with immature kids or people who havr nothing to lose

Get a C6 Corvette. They are dime a dozen and may be the perfect disposable sports car.
