i'll get it if YOU give me the money for it!…

The gas bill is probably the same as the monthly payments.

Should have been born rich. It is an incredible machine.

the funny thing is, he was working on the jaguar 2 years ago already as i first lived there...now the jaguar is done and there he has his next project, the lotus! great guy...gonna ride the lotus during the weekend...i hope

[Simon]

Nice (British) motors, the guys got taste. The 'Jag' looks like a Daimler from your photo?

[Finn666]

[Giles]

Haraki pimps his plate…...

[Seul]

He's such a child - I love it…

Oooh, the Louis Vuitton edition Dodge has finally dropped!  May have to divert this year's IH budget for this beaut!

[tatmantall]

… We may finally disagree on something.... Unless that's sarcasm MCL

[mclaincausey]

That was ABSOLUTELY sarcasm haha. This is just some rig someone defaced with false LV graphics

I should have taken a picture of the side, it may have been worse.

[tatmantall]

Jeez…

[tigerpac]

Yikes…

[mclaincausey]

Ok to make up for that…

It was possible to buy a Burberry Smart in Holland a few years back. Not my photo, but this is what they looked like.

Makes the Louis Vuitton edition look almost tasteful.

shudder. Should have at least made the outside khaki and maybe the interior Burberry plaid. Though on a car that is also heinous.

So I'm gonna be getting a 2000 Jeep Cherokee this week. Has a new engine with less than 1000 miles on it, new radiator, new water pump, for $3500. Less than 1/3 of what I budgeted for a new car. Wondering how I can pimp this thing without looking like a 17 year old driving around town…

There was also a limited edition Gucci Fiat 500….. Barf. One Christmas in Peoria I saw a late 90s Stratus that someone had spray painted purple and then airbrushed on fake LV graphics. Classy!

There's only so many things you can do to make a Stratus look even worse, but that sure as fuck is one of 'm…

Bags, just rock it for what it is.  Other than getting tires and/or wheels, just keep it as stock as long as you can stand it.  You'll probably never see a dime of what you put into it if you sell it later on.  Trust me…

The sensible response - take care of any rust/safety issues and bank the rest for maintenance, etc. Clint is spot on.

Or spend the rest of the cash on a motorcycle.
