Just because I'm home sick today, doesn't mean I can't car shop

!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is almost identical to mine apart from one small detail:

For almost 40k, would you buy this low mileage example with a DCT or would you find one with more miles where you could row your own?

Here, go direct your energies at finding me a low-miles 2002-2004 Grand Cherokee Overland with gray (not black & gray) seats and no navigation.

Thanks.

Yes but also I hate silver cars.

Also I found that dealership and am baffled as to why a random dealer on Lawn Guyland has so many low mileage old Jeeps.

Must really like them or something.

Pass on the DCT, I’ll happily take double the miles and 50% more pedals.

1. An E90M with a custom exhaust pulled out in front of me today, and floored it. My windows were down and wasn’t even slightly mad.

2. I’m guessing tomorrow is a no?

1. Need to get one of those.

2. Looking that way, still feel pretty terrible.

It looks like it’s going to be raining anyway, so you likely won’t miss too much.

Dude. My dad had one of those. Looked just like this one, but he decided he didn’t need an Mk4 GTI, Grand Cherokee, Mazda Tribute and my mom’s VW beetle at the same time, and sold the GC and bought a Ford Windstar (Had it for 3 months and ran screaming).

If it’s going to be an automatic, I’d rather have a C63 or RS4.

E90M3 > FTTOHG Has Moved to https://opposite-lock.com 12/01/2017 at 19:43

That’s fair enough, although I think the RS4 was manual only. RS5, on the other hand, is auto only.

The RS4 was manual only. I was thinking RS5 sorry. Too many airplanes not enough sleep etc etc. FWIW if we go down in power a little I think the B8 S4 is a truly under appreciated car. I’ve driven one and the supercharged motor is fantastic.

Never driven one, but I could see that. I’ve just heard conflicting things about their reliability.

Oh their reliability is bad. Probably the worst of the Germans. But I think once you’re into a high/end German Sport sedan reliability becomes a relative thing. Any of them could gift you a $5k+ repair at any time. The S4 I drove was a CPO bought by one of my clients. He had been driving an old Caravan and Altima for years saving for his son to go to college and once he finally had it all put away he decided to get a nice car. Then 6 months in he got hit with “surprise you’ve worn out the tires and that’s gonna be $1500.” He’s now on the fence about owning it past the warranty. I was like welcome to the world of used German car ownership. (I also let him know there were plenty of decent tires in his size for more like $200 a corner on sale at TireRack.)

Interesting find with a highly optimistic price tag. Clean, but pretty basic on the options list. I would say it is a 30K car, not almost 40K.
