Buying a Pontiac Solstice: brag or beat?

[redCashion]

I'm cashing out most of my poker bankroll (close to 10k) and putting in another 12k or so to pay for this in cash. I'm getting a good deal on the 2007 GXP.



Brag: it looks like hot [censored]
Beat: it has about 2 square feet of storage and will be my only car
Variance: need to learn how to drive stick

My friend has one.. they are ok if u like that kind of thing, not very practical due to 2 seats though.

Why not a different car?

I think the front wheel is crooked.

[redCashion]

Hmm.. not sure about the wheel, here is another pic:



As for practicality I just figure I'll work around it for now, and later in life when I have a family or I need to be more practical I'll either sell it or buy a second car.

Now the back wheel is crooked. I hope you walk with a limp.

Man, those things ripped, blew me away the first time I saw one on the autox course, thing ripped through the cones beautifully, was the talk of the day for sure.

they are alright I guess? But if youre gonna spend 22k on a not so practical rwd car, and you like pontiacs, get a used GTO. You can get them in the high teens to low twenties with pretty low mileage. Crazy bargain for a 400+ hp car.



vrooooom.
