Do the math at 30 months you are more than 46000 into an 80000 car. Pcars are buys, their CPO program is pretty nice as well. 2 additional years and 100k total vehicle miles. This belongs on the worst leases thread.
Aside from a dead battery now and then, are there any other considerations about picking up something like this if it would only get driven one week a month?
My understanding is that it’s more likely to go in a car that has low miles. If you pick one up with high mileage that hasn’t had an IMS bearing replacement, the likelihood of needing to replace it in the future is much lower.
You can have an independent shop do one for under $5K!
haha! doing it right. What you got for racecars? I’m intrigued. Also that’s a nice 997, Porsche is always ahead of its time in terms of performane. Drove a 993 gt2 and a 996 turbo, awesome bulletproof cars down the track, wish I could lease a 992 turbo but $2k+ a month =
I will have to get on that train once drag racing wears on me, not having to deal with brakes and tranny flush is absolutely a steal on my current budget, not that I can’t per say but that I don’t want to.
Maybe a shelby cobra coming soon to that collection? lol just kidding, but thats honestly my favorite car of the 60s, going back to the 30s 40s and 50s is cool but just a tad bit on the slow side of bat sh*t crazy fast cars for me. Recently saw that bonnie and clyde move on netflix and damn did ford make some sexy cars back then, and v8s to boot, sounded amazing too bad they couldn’t beat a Prius driven by an old lady in a race nowadays.
Saw a model t on the road next to me, had a good conversation with the guy and his buddy in a 50s Cadillac convertible at the stop light, both complimented me on the cat which surprised me, guess they were coming back from a car show.
Enjoy the rides and my novel in a landfill near you!
