I shall be going to get reacquainted with a place I'm too familiar with, a Medallion upgrade on a Delta MD-88, going to Chicago to see my parents and collect the S4. The plan is to drive back and detour to the Cherohala Skyway.

See you all on Tuesday!

Audi S4?

Unfortunately, yes. As much as a Lancia would be greatly desired, that's just not going to happen.

There are many, many better choices than a $385K *Lancia*...

I agree, but it is a Delta S4 Stradale, and why the **s?

You'll probably drive right past me on your way back.

Emphasis... if I'm going to spend $385K on a car, it's not going to have a Lancia badge on it, even if it is a Delta S4.

Oh. What badge would it have than?

I'd be tempted by the Aston Martin Vanquish, and their bespoke design service.

Then what about the remaining $75,000?

If I was to be classless, bespoke options for the Aston (Luggage made out of the seat leather and that kind of thing)

Otherwise, the $75K would be very nice in paying for the gas, maintenance, and insurance for a couple of years. (You have to consider these things you know)

Yes, but that $385,000 is only the cost of the Delta S4, not any of those.

Another reason not to buy the Lancia.

Unless you want me to use the Clarkson reason:

Kinja'd!!!

Lancia after being outside for more than a second in rain or snow.

I thought that was a photo of my parents 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan that they recently junked.

Not an exaggeration: before we got rid of it, it was literally held together with insulation foam and packing tape. If it got a flat tire, that was the end, because the frame was so rusted a jack would simply punch right through it.
