Back in 1999, my great-grandmother, at the age of 99, decided it was time to move out of her English bungalow style house near the north end of Green Lake, as the stairs were getting to be risky for her (the houses on her street were raised a little, one had to go up several steps to the front door, and it had a basement). My great-grandparents had bought the house around 1950, as their empty-nest house with my grandpa having his own young family. I don't think they paid more than 10K or so for it. A small house, but on a decent lot with a detached Model T garage. It sold for shy of 300K, which we thought was pretty good given that it had barely been touched in ~50 years, and needed some heavy updates, including plumbing - but it had lots of charm with tile work, french doors, built-ins, etc. Today the zestimate is well over 3x the sales price 18 years ago - and the market was considered hot then too, at the end of the 90s tech bubble.
I was 22 in 1999, still a student, and couldn't have came close to that mortgage even if I did it like so many I know, and had the bank of mommy and daddy to put up some funds. My sister and cousin had a then-crazy idea that the house should stay in the family, and they would rent it. I kind of wish they had. I don't know how people fresh to the market here do it, some of them must be stretched insanely thin by the costs, and if the market ever lost the wacky tax deduction subsidy, I don't know how people would react.
I was in a similar situation in 1983. Dad and I were living together in the family home after Mom died, and he wanted to sell the place. At that point I had been working 3 years and was making about $23K a year. He offered me the house for $73,000. If I didn't want it he was going to list it for $83K. He was in real estate and also offered to help me get a mortgage. When he told me it would cost about $750-800/month plus taxes and utilities I threw up my hands and said there was no way I could afford that. So I got an apartment and he sold the house.
That house today is about $500K. Not buying it was the worst move I ever made.
Both cite unexpected expenses that are leading them to sell so quickly - more likely is that they got caught up in the excitement of the Type R and it just doesn't fit their needs and/or financial situation.

All these natural disaster issues make moving back up to Saratoga area look notcso bad. Just some NYS tax and government nonsense to deal with, and some snow, but not excessive amounts of that or cold. But no hurricanes, floods, tornados or earthquakes to worry about!
Sorry to inform you but the Saratoga area has had all those in the last decade. And it's not the snow, it's the salt that comes with it that will make a car owner cry.
Little baby stuff doesn't count. For salt, if I go, I'm leasing a cheap truck of some kind, and getting a toy to keep in garage. In theory.
Yeah - and I like how one of them made it a big point to describe how much he paid for it, and how he'd still be taking a $4k loss at his stated price. He's basically asking about the same as he paid, just not counting sales tax.
So, you'd be losing the tax you paid and a little depreciation? Poor you!
If you chose to pay the exorbitant ADM and forced accessories, that's your choice to have had the car right away. But you can't expect the second buyer to do the same.
Honestly, these guys could probably sell their Type Rs if they come down to MSRP - there aren't any available in Colorado as far as I know. And selling a used car for original sticker would be pretty fortunate in my book.
Well, the championship White one does seem like it is owned by an adult.
While the Black one has been driven like a "grampa" for the past 3200 miles and not "been over the speed limit," one wonders how it's owner still knows it is a "sick car.". If this guy thinks "pregnancy isn't cheap," wait until his girlfriend, significant other, or baby momma actually gives birth. That's when the real financial fun starts. I do applaud him for not being willing to "trade for a Pilot Touring AWD."

Well, last weekend we got our son completely moved in to his apartment in Charlotte NC. He drove up to KY and we loaded up his car and a rental RAM 2500 cargo van and drove down late Friday. Saturday we unloaded things and then drove back home later that day. It would have been more of a fun drive in my ti or 2er but the RAM wasn't all that taxing to drive. The kid he's sharing the apartment with bought a 4K LED TV so my son wanted to buy a soundbar. I steered him to a Klipsch RSB-11 and of course also had the honor of mounting it on the wall and setting it up.I felt kind of stupid because I had to get up to speed on how HDMI ARC worked but aside from that it was an easy install. He did call later and tell me that when streaming Netflix the soundbar didn't work, but luckily it just took a couple of changes in the settings to get things working.
HDMI ARC??? What does the ARC stand for, and more importantly, what does it do?
ACR...Audio Return Channel.
If you switch your audio/video sources through a pre/processor, A/V Receiver, sound bar, etc, it allows you to use any combination of sources to funnel sound through your selected sound source.
For example, your TV offers some sort of WEB based services like YouTube, Netflix, HuLu, etc. and you use a sound bar for audio, instead of switching to your TV speakers to utilize the TV's WEB services, you can have audio funneled through the sound bar like the rest of your sources.
This isn't an issue if you funnel your WEB based streaming through a BluRay player that has HDMI ARC for audio that has access to the streaming services like Netflix. But, if you have an AMAZON Prime dongle for their services, as an example, there is no way to funnel audio from the dongle to your sound bar.
HDMI ARC is bi-directional, in addition to being capable of carrying 4K video signals, it can also carry high resolution audio, in both directions....from your sources to your TV, and from your TV to your audio sources (like the sound bar, or A/V receiver).
We have the Sonos soundbar at one of our TVs and like it quite a bit. I used to be all into the full home theater setup, but now prefer the simplicity of a good soundbar if it accommodates the needs.
We lost power Sunday afternoon and by Monday noon, knew we had to get out. Wife got a place on Miami Beach. Only issue, bridges closed and no one allowed on beach. Called a Choice hotel reservations line and found us a hotel in Miami by airport, a Cambria Suites. Great place, only had a handicap room left that someone canceled,it was perfect. Just got home this afternoon to start cleaning up the damage to the foundation, window and wet carpeting. We have a mess!! Luckily, the tree will grow back. Living with no power sucks and pray they get everyone online very soon! This is it for me, told the wife we gotta move by next year as I've had enough after 48 years! This time, i'm quite serious!!

You could buy a pretty nice home for about $300k in the Tampa area....just an occasional hurricane once in awhile.
Have to balance that against the PNW volcano eruptions and the risk of an earthquake causing the entire coastline to tumble into the sea.

I just heard that BMW is planning on doing away with keys altogether in favor of a smart phone app. Guess they don't want to sell to dinosaurs like me.
Then again with modern keys costing hundreds of dollars, a smart phone might be cheaper.

I see a future where autonomous cars create gridlock as owners send them off after getting to their destination. Someone just popping in to the store for a few minutes (or more) just sends their car circling around the block until they get done. Someone drives to work downtown sends their car home only to have it come back in the afternoon to pick them up because it's cheaper than paying for downtown parking. And other deal like that.

Just don't let your cell phone die, or forget it someplace. I can see it now, thousands of BMW owners become zombie chow in the zombie apocalypse because their cell phone batteries died and they couldn't get into their cars.

BMW already has an app-BMW Connected-that allows you to check the status of your car, send destinations to the navigation system, and lock or unlock it- and it allows you to schedule preconditioning on the i and iPerformance vehicles. I suspect that more features will be added to BMW Connected but the key will be retained; the key fob contains a mechanical key and als stores vehicle data that th Service Advisor reads when a vehicle is brought in.

Don't forget the Display Key that has an LED Screen on it that reads out vehicle info as well. That display key is a waste of technology, in my opinion. It is wirelessly charged in the console.

So, all the Californian who are moving north toward Seattle are just getting an early start instead of waiting for geology, plate tectonic, and the every-shifting crust to take them there. LOL

Chevy and Buick have that as well. On my Volt it also shows whether it's charging and the charge level. Nice if I'm charging while at dinner or shopping. I see that as a model for the future. Fewer stand alone gas stations you go to for one purpose and more charge spots in malls and parking lots where you "fill up" while doing other things.

The Connected app has that feature on my wife's i3. It also projects the time when the car will be fully charged. The Connected app and the ChargePoint app both can let you know when charging is completed.

I have the "myCadillac" app, which from their blurb:
"With the new myCadillacTM mobile app, you can unlock your vehicle's full potential right from your smartphone. The new myCadillac mobile app builds off the best features of the previous version of the myCadillac app, along with the OnStar RemoteLink® mobile app, so you have one tool to manage your entire vehicle ownership experience. With the myCadillac app, you are always in the driver's seat, even when you're nowhere near it.
With the available OnStar® Basic Plan or any paid OnStar service plan, you can remotely start or shut off your vehicle's engine, lock or unlock the doors or activate the horn and lights, all from your smartphone if your Cadillac is properly equipped. You can also enjoy real-time diagnostic information on certain key vehicle systems, 24/7. Plus, Guidance Plan Subscribers can search for destinations - even a nearby dealer service centre - and, if equipped with the available Navigation system, have those directions sent right to your vehicle."

There are some really good soundbars out there. Sonos is one. BOSE, believe it or not, have some that aren't bad. I heard an ATMOS demonstration using an LG sound bar that I was impressed with.
That said, tough to get away from my full blown surround sound A/V set up. Hell, I just added a 15" sub to my 18" sub. I will put my system up against anything you hear in a theater. You want to get the "in theater" movie experience without putting up with the people who have their cell phones wringing, infants screaming, person behind talking the whole time, I'll stick to my own home theater.

When I bought my new TV for my bedroom wall, I also bought a sound bar made by Vizio. The sound adds to the surround sound and is easy to use. I think I paid $200 for the speakers.

"With the new myCadillacTM mobile app, you can unlock your vehicle's full potential right from your smartphone.

With the myCadillac app, you are always in the driver's seat, even when you're nowhere near it.
With the available OnStar® Basic Plan or any paid OnStar service plan, you can remotely start or shut off your vehicle's engine, lock or unlock the doors or activate the horn and lights, all from your smartphone if your Cadillac is properly equipped. You can also enjoy real-time diagnostic information on certain key vehicle systems, 24/7. Plus, Guidance Plan Subscribers can search for destinations - even a nearby dealer service centre - and, if equipped with the available Navigation system, have those directions sent right to your vehicle."
