What’s 79 years old and has almost 250 horsepower? My grandmother, who this past weekend got a deal on this 18 ' Buick .
This broadsided me because: I didn’t think my grandma had money away like that seeing as she’s retired,and I didn’t think she would want something like this. I knew she wanted a car, but damn
I usually go visit her on Sundays to see if she needs a ride to church. I get there and this is sitting at the curb. Of course I’m thinking damn that’s nice. So I go inside and ask my mom did she see that nice Buick wagon sitting outside. She says “Oh she didn’t tell you?” I go “Who didn’t tell me what?” She was granny got it yesterday. I almost said what the fuck out loud but I don’t curse in front of my mother so I go to her room to find my grandmother with the owner’s manual open, reading it. Without looking up she asks me “ Are Regal brakes good”? I didn’t know what to say but us of course. So I asked her did she really buy that and she looked at me like I was crazy and said yes.
She then went into how she got a deal on it and that she asked for a senior discount and the sales manager gave her 4 grand off because apparently this had been there for a little while and said “Hows that for a discount?” And I’m just still blown away by this whole thing. I’ll post a video soon of her driving it soon while I’m still left scratching my head over this.

So when is Granny signing up for Oppo?
Also you should get her an Oppo sticker as a gift.

My Grandma just got a Cts-v wagon, but get this... It’s a manual! Steal of the century too. I got this shot of her today, pretty nice right?

My grandmother was looking to replaced her ‘04 Regal a few years ago. She was looking at ES Hybrids and such. Then one day I sent her an ATS turbo with the performance pack (paddle shifters, Bre mbos, etc). She bought it the next day. To this day, she tells me it the first car she’s owned in her 80 year life that she actually looks forward to driving.

Is your Grandma looking to adopt a grandson?

I’d forgotten that the FP shared that gem of a lie. Good stuff.

I have driven one
and that’s not a lie
. So are you telling me the car is a lie or your Grandma is a lie?

This Buick is a Vauxhall, so it’s an Opel. That’s how the world works now.

Someone made an outrageous claim a while ago.

It’s copy paste of this , where I only changed like 2 words.

My grandpa did a similar thing. Bought a new buick because he “always wanted a buick”. I feel like there is a bit of a difference between the buicks he had in mind:
But he’s not a jalop.

It was a reference to something else.

T BH your Buick Regal story was more believable than a CTS V Wagon buying Granny story.

I never saw this post. If I did, I never gave it any creedence.
Not trying to brag myself. It’s just a two year old lacrosse. Floor demo model though, It’s got all kinds of stupid gizmos that my grand
parents don’t know how to use.

That was sort of why I posted it. I also posted it verbatim and only changed “600 horsepower” to “250 horsepower” “13' CTS-V” to “18' Buick” “Caddy Wagon” to “Buick Wagon” “Brembo” to Buick”and the title, or course.

I honestly chuckled out loud when I got to the brakes question. Nicely updated.
