Just finished reading about this cute, little thing. Let us know when you get it and what you think
of it. It may put the M5 to shame.

OK, you can call me a 'dumb ass' one time.

As soon as I saw it in Road and Track, I thought of you. It is a beautiful car.

Naw, no interest in that. Although I can appreciate their quality and
engineering, I got over my attraction with BMW's and Porsche after
having them for a while. High maintenance and service centers are not
always local to you. Better off with a simple Ford or Chevy that can
be repaired by just about anyone.

The new Ford F-150 engine is impressive. Tiny little 2.7L V-6 that
develops 325 hp and 375 lb-ft of torque. Here's a video where they
tested it towing 7,000 lbs up a 6 degree grade against a Dodge Ram with
the eco diesel and a Silverado with a 5.3L V-8 towing the same load.

Personally I prefer a Toyota or Honda that rarely needs to be repaired
by anyone.

I've owned one Honda, bought new in '89. In almost 50k miles I had more trouble with it than the Explorer that came after it had in nearly 80k miles. Plus, the dealer told me that in order to keep up the warranty, I needed to follow the strict "bring it in every 75oo miles" service schedule in the warranty book. Even while the issues it had, including a clutch replacement brought on by a rear main seal leak, were all covered under warranty I spent plenty on "maintenance".

No, the current Audi won't be inexpensive to maintain. But it's a much better car than anything in the Honda or Acura lineup.

I've not had any problems with my 2009 Silverado, until now. I'm getting a check engine light for
that glow plug. Haven't fixed it yet. Will put in a new glow plug and see what happens.

Impressive, especially for only 2.7L. Glad it didn't outrun my diesel. Then I'd really feel bad.

If Ford had made a decent diesel when I was buying mine, I'd be driving a Ford.
