I bought a new car (the "I wanna be like Gugs" thread)...

[MFJ]

i'm a happy guy. my boss is letting me finance his 2006 Saab 9-3 Aero (Turbo Wagon). 59,000 miles... he's only charging me $13,000 with no interest! been driving around all day. great fucking car. so if anyone near CT wants to buy a focus in great shape, let me know.

Jaysus that's a good deal

now that ride sounds like you ...

 

[MFJ]

yeah i'm pretty happy. the $850 sales tax is not really my style, but oh well. that's life i guess

I bought an extended warranty with the XC90. It's the first time I've ever done so. I figured it was a good idea. Kind of a complex vehicle

 

[lurch70]

i still don't believe it's real

I can't stand Lamborghinis.

 

[lurch70]

since my bud bought the Aston I went to a few of these exotic hangout events. its really weird being part of those circles. Ferraris are like Toyotas in the exotic world. everyone seems to have one.
Lambos are typically owned by the biggest douches (probably why I covet one)

the classic exotic car owners are typically the coolest cats.

this dude and his chick are awesome ... he just picked up the first Lamborghini Aventador in NY tonight.

I think you can see his facebook page as it seems "public" http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000404968006

Thanopsypsm ... do you see this kind of madness in Japan?

Never but maybe that's because I live in a fairly small town. The craziest shit I see around here would be people buying fake fur, grass, etc and putting it on their dashboard. They then often put a fucking army of little stuffed animals and/or anime figurines on that, all staring out the windshield. Also, old people have to put special stickers on their cars. They changed the design recently but up until last year the only thing they could buy looked like a tear drop and was colored like dying leaves. Old people hated it so some would buy four or more of them to arrange them into some little design.

Not exactly too crazy around these parts.

hahahahha ... this dude is nuts. video just made

he is sitting with his chick in the Aventador getting towed home from the dealer where he picked up his new ride.
people with money

 

[dorian gray]

haha did he call his gf "concubine"?

also, why is it being towed?

 

[lurch70]

that's what he calls her. I met this dude at one of these events. he owns a very successful divorce law firm.
there are some funny ass pics all over his account with his chick.

he just got the car yesterday in from the dealer. he was getting it towed to Long Island to a place that does all that protective film shit for these cars' fronts/hoods against the rocks and bugs.

the guy is definitely living "the life"

always loved that car ...

 

[dorian gray]

IMO, the best car ever made. Except for the 959, of course, but considering that was never allowed in the US, I have to remove it from contention.
