LOL, I see no fun in waxing, but look forward to drive it again.
I'm going to do the exhaust thing with my 3 year old niece sounds like high value parenting advice.

it may even devalue so much and be used as carry trade like the almight yen, LMAO.

jest aside, i know your point as well as Rad's.
it's not going to drop too much 4.0 value that is., if at all.
maybe it wont be 10MM in the future.
but it's kind of fun driving the thing and put some wax on it every so often.

what's priceless is i tell max to stand behind the exhaust, look into it, i fire it out at wot. scare him sh*tless watching him jump up in fear then tells me the car is not good, it's too loud. mommy's odyssey is so much quieter...... ugh... i need a new son.
LOL you crack me up!!

It's just Max's payback for the exhaust thing.

My son has issues too. He will take my Boss 302 over the RS any day of the week. He really dislikes the Porsche. Don't know if it's the wing or what. Go figure.

Okay, this is getting both personal and really funny now. So Nicholas, my 6 year-old, sits in my orange 4.0 the other day, then looks across the garage at all of the black cars and says to me "daddy, these cars aren't cool, why don't you have any blue ones"? Little ****er.

that's my kind of girl, I would be perfectly happy being able to justify why I pushed the guy in front for half a mile with his brakes lock up.

Price is always based on supply and demand....

And in the future you can be 100% confident that there will be a short supply with a high demand therefore the prices will remain high.

It's pretty simple......to me.....
