and the best part, it's not black!

you won't do it

 

[Bio248]

not yet i won't.

it will probably be AFTER the baby comes. i don't want to be mid road trip to pick up a car only to get a call from the wife about going into labor.

Ats is not the same platform as the regal. Ones fwd and the ats is rwd. But I was just giving you an option lol. Didn't look at what the used prices were for them.

Just looked and lowest ats manual with turbo I could find was 27k. So you could probably get them to lower it more to the 24 range. But like you said, you would really have to love it.

just did a quick quote on car insurance and it looks like my policy might go up just under $200 every six months. i think i'm okay with that right now since my policy is dumb amounts of cheap at like $23x every six months...

200 every six months? i would kill for that man, i pay 105 a month for 11 months lol

If you buy a CTSV, what will you drive in the winter time?

 

[Bio248]

a CTS-V.

The Audi will feel the smoothest and ride the best out of all of them, but the maintenance will kill you.

I just had to sink 2k into mine.

a CTS-V.

Best of luck.

 

[Bio248]

Best of luck.

so people can drive beamers, mustangs, all of those big body dodges, lexus', etc...but a cts-v would just be too much?

people drove in the snow in RWD cars since the beginning of time. i'll be fine.

I think what people get into there minds is that "OMG IT'S A 400HP CAR, HOW IN THE WORLD WILL IT EVER MOVE IN SNOW EEEEEEEEEMMMMMRRRRRRRGEEEEEEEEERRRRRDD".

C'mon people think with your noodle, it's a caddy, it's heavy, likely has traction control and stability control and the car is planted and will move without an issue with decent tires. It's not you're going everywhere at full throttle and actually using all the cars power.

 

[Bio248]

or WILL i....

The 300c r/t is awd with 425 hp. Should do fine in the snow.

 

[Bio248]

i don't want a dodge.

 

[02NavyBlue]

Haha I'm with you, it was just an example though. There are awd caddys I'm sure. Not really into them much

Has a 535xi manual been mentioned? Not sure if you can get those in the states for under $20K? N54 is a bit of a potential nightmare though... What about an 07 rs4? They go for $30K CDN, not sure about US.

 

[Bio248]

the RS4's are still expensive here and i don't really want to deal with the maintenance of an audi or a beamer.
