    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I think if you purchase an altima at any point in its life cycle for over 6.8% apr you should be followed by police at all times. Because even if you're not a criminal you're still stupid enough to become one

    Bigger question is, how'd they get the ankle bracelet off to go buy said Altima?

    Watched one casually drive through an entire red intersection. Windows were so tinted I couldn’t see in but I'm sure they did it while looking down at a phone.
    Or maybe Altima’s have become sentient.

    welp Molly's prey drive was strong enough for her to sniff out a mouse and almost catch it. But it got away and she ended up chasing it in here with me :annoyed:

    I mean yes and no. That's $50k. For a Corolla... I can't get on board with that. Don't get me wrong, the Corolla hatch is an awesome car, and it felt like good value when I leased a manual one for $200/mo. But a GR would cost 4x that....

    $50k gets you into a 997.2 911 or even a 996 Turbo....

    997s have been coming down into some reasonable numbers.

    $50k is crazy for a Corolla. That's a weird part of the market.
    Clubman JCW is super fun with 301hp stock and $10K ish less. (Not everyones taste, I know.)

    Been awhile but I remember working up lease numbers on an M4 and it was just about $700-800/mo or so which wasn't bad at all considering it had the competition package

    Welp, checked out a 1st gen V60 to scratch the itch, just not wagony enough for me, but the interior was great. Moving along.

    I might look for a Subaru Loyale. Apparently the EA82 engine is so light that you can lift it out by hand and reseal it on a work bench.

    Yeah the used prices arent scary either, as long as you know what youre getting into.
    I'm sure you saw all sorts of craziness come across your desk.
