i was hoping covid would have killed a few of my older relatives so I could inherit these 3 sub 10k mile vehicles:

1993 Supra Turbo
2012 Lexus LFA
2006 LX 470

Regardless of how much God or China tried, these way past their expiration date AARP members just dont seem to want to leave the Earth

I told my wife, I am done with being nice to older relatives, and I need some Novichok to make my automotive dreams a reality
LFA… what the flying f**k..

I got taken for a few hot laps around Eastern Creek racecourse in an LFA a few years back, was a mind melting experience. They replaced the brake discs and pads after that track day, for a measly $40k AUD.

I want to inherit it, not maintain it.

sad it doesnt have a 3rd pedal and also sad its front engine since I have had mid engines all my life

If it sits in my garage appreciating, like my nsx, elise, and mr2, my younger relatives will wish for my death and I will take enjoyment in not giving them my cars….

But I suspect yours will have 100s of thousands of miles on them and more than a few battle scars when the kids finally do inherit.

Just re-read and saw that you've got a few collecting dust and appreciating the garage. Not your 200 series though.
 
Sub 10k MKIV Supra would change my life :o :o :o
 
My wife hates the G.
You are not alone. The other day my wife said to me - all Mercedes are really beautiful and cool, except for that one boxy ugly-f... model that I do not know the name. When I told her how much it cost, her brain shorted for a second. I guess we are just lucky. My wife is a happy camper in her PRO 4Runner.
 
I have been camping in some backwoods places where I would not want to be driving such an obvious symbol of wealth as the G-wagon.
So have I, but I’m always packing and idc. Also in my experience people are more deferential if you pull up in G as long as you’re a man

Lucky??!!!! NO NO!!

I want my wife to like the G, so I can sell her 200 Heritage, and just get a proper G.
 
I have a feeling there is gonna be a lot of burnt heavy metal coming out of the palisades but maybe some lightly singed rebuildable cars too. Just wait a few months for the insurance auctions to hit…

some of the looters already got good stuff for sure.

Some very nice P car and M car parts have hit the sites locally...

However, Nazi cars aren't for me.
 
Why do you think I have been shopping Novichok for 5 years?

I offered him my 3,600 mile NA2 NSX as an even trade a while back, and he told me "I don't drive underpowered Hondas"

LOL
Truth be told brotha... that is one of the main reasons I never picked up an NSX. It was difficult to look past the 270hp when a Supra made 500hp with a few bolt ons 🫤

Careful with any bolt ons. They sure are fun for a while, but ultimately the wrong choices can burn you.

Absolutely, the modifications always need to be done thoughtfully. Luckly I've learned a thing or two after nearly 25 years around these cars.
