"So much bang for the buck". Um, no, you can't really say that about a car with a $140k price tag.

The $33k (or whatever I paid for mine) is - IMO - where that phrase can come in at. FYI - the odometer on mine is about to turn 115,000 miles. That is 30 thousand miles over the 2+ years I have had it (27 months or so). LOVE IT.

Considering it isn't crumpled, I assume that was the point.

As art, it works on a couple of different levels:
Drive it too fast and the rear end will swing you into a ditch ... ... and, the two walls sort of look like the steel plates of a crusher, ready to flatten the car into a crumpled box - which is probably the most appropriate state this overrated, over-valued and now, over-ripe, old death-trap of a car belongs. As an aside, if you've never driven one of these, they drive and feel like shit. |
