lol awesome. And yes, you can buy an LFA. Those were the terms at first but you can buy it. Only thing is that you cannot just stick it in a museum and the dealer that you purchased it has to be the first make an offer if you want to sell it. The dealer I worked at ordered 3 and I helped PDI one of them with my shop foreman

I wonder is that question was obligatory, but I'm going to answer it anyway. The question didn't state that I had to insure any vehicle, and I didn't even say if the cars should be driven on the road, for all I know, I could own a racetrack, where I store my cars.

In the last 15 (I think more) years, Lexus has been either #1 or #2 in quality according to JD Power. For 2013, Lexus beat number 2 Mercedes by a very significant margin. That doesn't mean random issues can't happen. But when it comes to the best quality cars according to JD Power and Associates, Lexus is number 1. Of course, if I were make a post about this, all I'll get is beige this, and fancy Corolla that. If it had been Audi that won number #1, we'd get posts and re-posts all day and the phrase "German Engineering" will get severely over used lol.

4k over budget, but when you have 300k to spend on a car, 4k is nothing.

Around 50 grand for a used Camaro ZL1 Convertible for the wife, pay off all my debts (around another 50 grand) sell my 3 current cars (240sx - 2k, Fiat 500 Sport - 12k, Mazda3 Hatch - 18k) Leaving me 232 grand or so for what I'd like...
2009 Bentley Brooklands Coupe
And the remaining 40k would be enough to buy my house from my aunt/uncle/parents, then instead of a caretaker I'd own the place. Nice. Probably have 10k left over for a service on the Brooklands.

I would get a new 2013 Z06, take it to the best mechanic possible, and have the LS7 completely worked over to handle 40psi from the turbos that I'm going to put in it. I may have to make the body a little wider to handle bigger rubber. That should be close to 300k.

Haha. No the name is a running joke with my old buddies from high school. Back then, I liked the San Francisco 49ers while all of them, since we lived in Texas, loved the Cowboys. Therefore, whenever the 49ers lost, they would give me hell, especially my life long friend Danny. Anyway, one day Danny was teasing me as usual after a 49ers' loss and asked "Hey Nate. How'd your California coalminers do last night?". After that, the name kind of just stuck and is used whenever my other friends want to joke with me.
