I need to go to find a new ride. But paddock just posted a used 05 gto with only 27 grand on the clock for 15999. ---

Kinda dissapointed. Biggest surprise was the interior of the new Volvo V70, gorgeous matte finish on the wood. I was like “I need this quality in my life, wish it was in a BMW” It was light years better than the interior of the Jaguar XF. I’m sorry, a Jaguar should not have silver painted plastic inside. Either make it all real aluminum, or just go back to wood. Or CF. Camaro is gorgeous, but I saw an ad in the paper today for 2010 Camaro’s $500 over invoice. New Taurus is shockingly good looking. Did not expect that at all VW Tiguan looks like an excellent value, sticker on that is less than I thought it would be Mitsu Evo has a much better interior, good looking car in person. My wife loves the new Forester, so that will be her next car in 3-4 years. Loved the white Boxster with white wheels and grey stripes. New Mazda 6 is very nice. ---

Toronto is huge compared to Buffalo. The reason I’m not going is because I want to hit some collector car shows instead. ---

Yes there was a CTS-V there which was hot The ZR1 was amazing, but what I didn’t get was why people were allowed to put their hands all over it, scratching it with their rings,etc and the camaro was all blocked off. WTF is wrong with people? Do you need to touch to see if you like it? Liked the 370Z, G8, Challengers, TL and TSX, XR8…Evo was nice, but 42k? ---

Forgot how it came up but my dad was asking why the range rover was 96k.
