Exactly one year ago today was my first post here on Oppositelock. I discovered Oppo through cross posts to Jalopnik and joined so I could write a review of a Citroën rental car. Little did I know I would discover the coolest community of car enthusiasts on the entire internet. Thank you all for making Oppo such an awesome place. I’ve never done an AMA before, so ask me (almost) anything.

(In case anyone cares, here’s a link to my first ever post:)

I know rule #1 is to not talk about ability to post....but how did you get the ability to make posts? What was the process? Just curious...I wish to one day share my shenanigans.

I asked a mod, but the best way is to search “Club Openings” and comment on one of those posts, asking for authorship.

What is your favorite Mercury?

About as much as the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow

I don’t like thinking about it since it left some pretty deep emotional scars. Thanks man for bringing it up. ):

Thanks. I read something along those lines on a search, but I haven’t seen one of those posts in a while...I must have missed it.

You can’t slay those demons if you keep them locked up.

First or second gen.

Well I assumed they would be easier to slay if you kept them all in a confined space.

Second gen is one of the best vehicles ever made in my opinion.

hmmm I assumed demons would be locked in a solid panel box/cage...like the gimp.

Which would mean letting the demon out to slay it in a magnificent battle...

Think of it like sport fishing. It’s done in the ocean/lake, not in a bathtub.

wow, just checked your previous post and clicked through to the investengine site...

what strange prices on the cars... totally different than what we are seeing here in the US.

128k euro for a 328? a bit high compared to what we’re seeing

109k euro for a 550? a bargain! especially compared to...

2.5 million euro for an f430?!?!?!? jeebus that’s way high compared to what they are asking here.

I guess it's called InvestEngine for a reason. Also, most of those cars are still for sale over a year after I saw them, which may be because of the prices.
