Her tires are $333 a pop ? :impressive:
I'm sure she's getting over-charged or being tricked into paying for unnecessary stuff with the tires, but that's what she claims.. drives some older hybrid Lexus CUV thing.
Probably got a nitrogen fill up.

Nice.

Talked to friend.. She definitely paid a female driver tax. So she picked up screws in two tires, each at different times over the last month. Both times she went to get the tire replaced, the shop convinced her that she had to replace both fronts at the same time, or both rears at the same time wherever the screw was. First time she paid $600 for two of the "best" tires they had, second time she didn't want to spend as much so she paid $400 for a pair of the "second best".. Poor womenz.

Good looking car. You guys have parking lines for parallel spots? :impressive: it's a free for all up here now that they took the meters out and have pay kiosks instead.

Man I'd love a 300 for the city. Torquey NA V8 with no overheating bs, smooth transmission, and smooth suspension. They're just yuuuuuge.

Down here there are only lines for parallel spots if there are meters. If it's a normal free for all street there are no lines.

Honestly... and this is coming from someone who is a bit of a power whore... but the V6 is fine. The car feels very balanced.

The only time I truly "miss" power is from 1400-1900rpm on the freeway, it doesn't have "that" much low end. And the transmission is geared towards low rpm.

It runs on donkey piss and I averaged 25mpg on it... However this engine sounds like garbage which is the biggest downside of this car, something like a blend of 200k mile Uhaul + wheesy minivan.

Also, lines are everywhere... because spots are all paid.

I honestly think that a Challenger Hellcat is the perfect car.

Blazing fast. Comfortable over garbage roads. Nice interior. I legit want a :manuel:

It's just an embarrassing badge. Which will probably knock it out of contention here. You can get a Merc for the same price. You're an idiot not to.

Challys with cloth interior are :disgust: AF but I love this chassis A LOT... Outside of the steering rack ratio they are the perfect barges for DD use.
