Any guesses what the coveted 99 silver 996 on bat is going to bring today? Based on the chatter here, I’m guessing 35k. I do love the seats.

Silver/black is a little uninspired, but sport seats are good 35 might be on the high end IMO

Default Buy American

I go out of my way to buy American made. I don’t shop at Walmart. I’ll pay up to maybe 20 percent more for made in the USA, hard to do with clothes . I don’t buy crap made in China.

I'm glad I work in manufacturing - making every day things people use in America

Plus life is too short to shop at Wal-Mart

That is a great plan, but unfortunately so much manufacturing has been shipped overseas.
I am not aware of any Rubber Vulcanizing Facilities left in the USA.

It's difficult to remember, and almost impossible to believe today, but Walmart was heavily focused on selling American made products when it started out.

We had a cabin in northern MI years back, sadly had to sell but I acquired the "home" toolbox that my grandparents had up there. No joke, have a tape measure that says "Made In America For Walmart". Boy has that ship long since sailed. Sad.

With BaT fee you are right on the money! “Silver” and with no early-build I think that was all the money right now. Heck two years ago that was a $19K car.
