Soviet EV chronicles + future ponderings about sports cars

[Desertbreh]

I don't really like any of these options. (AZN voice) PRICE TOO HIGH!

Truthfully I haven’t been looking at the links you’ve posted, so not sure how these San Diego offerings stack up against them. But if you find something here that’s decent it’s a quick flight and easy trek back home.

SD is in fact in my search radius... but I haven’t seen anything decent down there yet. There was a forum bro down there ... but it wasn’t the best dildo. Appreciate the look out.


The one you linked is a 2wd bromobile that’s priced about 8k too high.

Yeah I missed the 2WD posted. Whoops.

I mostly just want you to come down here so we can rebuild the German-Russian relations.

A 2 Door 2020 is around 28.3k... which is nearly what an FJ runs with 80k miles... UGH.

Does anyone know if the Wrangler has Keyless entry at least standard? :aincare: about the rest. I can't deal with using a KEY to do shit.

It appears to have push button start in that pic? SO I would assume so... when you say keyless entry do you mean like an unlock button on a fob or the walk up to it shit?

Button on fob I know the other shit costs $495 and I don’t care about that either

Just go buy a 4R.

I have no interest in them as I mentioned several times. They are also not cheaper or better in any way

So... Mini looks like it lost 8k since I purchased it... I haven't learned my lesson.

Issues:
My drivers seat squeaks like a sun of a bitch... looks like I'll have to dick with that to see what may be causing it.

Alignment is still off, after 2 trips to the the steering wheel is still cocked to the left a bit when i go straight.

Yep. This is what happens when you get the car you WANT BRO. My all in was 25k for the car + 2.5k in cali rape tax... 27.5k... Private party is listed as 19k according to KBB and 17.5k trade in... so could be as much as 10k mini lost me an entire RANGE ROVER

Crickets out here!

Also I noticed that mini gets significantly better MPG if driven in the "Green err Greta" mode. I did it for a tank and averaged nearly 29mpg... which is I'll do a sport only tank as well.

I'm getting 13.5 because I'm a bitch who needs my seat and pre warmed up twice a day

Remote start + winter blend fuel kills the average. It's 18 avg during the summer.

I parked next to a JCW today that was truly a clowncar. Red with gold stripes and the union jack roof. Worst color combo I've seen.

Mine is still sitting at 18 average.

Y'all got that cheap cheap gas we got a lot better, we're in the "mid 3s" for premium... for no reason whatsoever. Which is much easier to swallow than closer to $5 where we were not long ago.

So I am officially scheduled to travel to Europe 2/9>2/21 so it seems that a move is unlikely on my end until then. Mr I KNOW WHAT I HAVE BRO here has had his car listed for a month now... If it doesn't sell by the time I am back I will make him an offer he will likely refuse once again. I think my upper limit is 28/29... which seems far off his price still.

I run 90 ethanol free in it's almost $3 it runs better. 93 crept upto 3.30 with that whole Iran ordeal now back down to 3.03-3.09 where it was all last year.

$23.5k for this. I'll bring it back with me in March.

Sport+ = base mode in the Mini, the green mode is like the mid mode in the BMW. The throttle mapping in the non M cars is

Yep. no way around it.

Also looks like I drove the mini 5000 miles already... wow.. in 3 1/2 months. And I don't even feel like I drive it that much.
