2021 Jeep Wrangler Sahara 4xe Granite Crystal over Saddle

2017 BMW X1 Jet Black over Mocha
BMW made a color back in the mid - late ‘90s called Montreal Blue that was stunning.
I never new how much I needed a pickup until I leased one. Did I get it because I like the way it looks (fake hood scoop & all)? Yes. Did I get it because it was an insanely good deal? Yes. Do I love having a pickup? Absolutely. It’s also been a life saver at work.

I guess in a world where a 200K house is now 500K, a $500 hooptie is now $2000, and a 55K salary is now 60K (see what I did there), this makes sense.

Project for today. My BIL has a near-mint 2005 G35 coupe with 137k miles. Looks and drives like it has 1/4 the mileage. Earlier in the week threw CEL and VDC lights and was cranking terribly. Plugged in my OBD reader and it turns out camshaft position sensor for bank 2 (driver’s side) was kaput. YouTube said it was fairly straightforward to replace and it was!
Removed the air box, intake tubing, MAF, and throttle body. Swapped out the sensor, put it all back together, and cleared the codes. Done in under an hour for $65 in parts. As lead “mechanic” I of course took it out for a proper rom-I mean- test drive. These VQ engines are wonderful.
My wife and SIL were quite impressed with us.
My BIL suggested we should get a lift. I suspect that’s the threshold at which we do more harm than good…
Excellent job!

Yes, there's a ding on the Carfax, but my SA friend can inspect the car for me. There can't be many F32 M Sport cars with three pedals and the THP- xDrive or otherwise. I absolutely love the interior, and I'm hoping one of those magic Ceramic paint coatings could help keep the Black Sapphire Metallic paint looking decent. The only other thing I see is that the rear bumper needs a bit of TLC and one wheel needs a touch up. It has a Bavarian ponycar vibe to it-reminding me of my father's 1965 Mustang that boasted a black over red color scheme.

Took delivery of the Polestar yesterday. All the paperwork was completed ahead of time, so it all went smoothly. They don’t have their credit card system set up yet, so they didn’t even collect the first lease payment - the sales manager said she’d call me when they are set up.
Since it was the first order - plus I let them know this was my 10th purchase form their dealership network - their general manager was there to say hi and congratulate me. They had a bottle of champagne and a couple of gift cards to a local massage spa for us. Fun experience.
I let the salesperson go through all the features and tech, which took about an hour. It was helpful, plus he wanted to go through it with me since it was his first delivery too.
Few obligatory pics - love this Thunder Gray color. Sort of a pale gray in some lights, but has a strong blue hue in others. I love the look of the frameless side view mirrors - the entire mirror body is what adjusts, as opposed to just the mirror insert. The interior is pretty plain looking - very Scandinavian - but the materials are actually quite interesting. I like the feel of the vegan seat material. The Android Automotive system is slick and very quick to operate. But I still look forward to Apple CarPlay which is still to come in a software update.

Replaced the cabin air filter in my dad’s wagon this afternoon. Whoever decided that 30k miles is the correct interval for that should be beaten. I had to vacuum out driver and passenger sides just to see where everything went back together there was so much debris.
One of the youtube videos that I watched, looking for information on removing the smell of cigarettes, the videographer showed a cabin air filter that was about as filthy as any filter I have ever seen. I would have been reluctant to get inside the car after seeing that cabin air filter.
He hasn’t had the car for more than 10k. I’m guessing someone just reset the light.
But there is absolutely no world where a 1990's Cavalier is worth their asking price. Maybe move the decimal one place to the left and it would be worth considering. Maybe.

If you like old Cavaliers there are some around that are cheaper but still not cheap.

Speaking of low mileage oldies, a lot more money, but a lot more car - this actually isn't seriously insane, in that it isn't 3x real value anyway.

ON EDIT: I think it would make a lot more sense to just buy a new Mustang GT.
@breld - congrats on the polestar! I’ll echo the others’ compliments on Thunder Grey. Beautiful! Looking forward to hearing your experiences with it!

This is something that I'm pretty excited about and that hasn't happened to me since the week before I bought the Golf. I think I could let it go for the right Bolt model at the right price. Think I've come a long way here!

If I pass the urine test tomorrow and they in fact let me start on Saturday, think I'll give it a whirl. I just want to see how it goes and if it's everything I hoped it would be. And if not or if the hours get to be too much, I can always see about a reduction in those or leave altogether. I just hate to give up an opportunity on something I've wanted for a long time before I've actually done it for a few days. Personally, I think I'm going to really like it and those couple of afternoons right now, I do nothing to speak of except rest, watch t v or surf the web. It's really wasted hours so making a few extra bucks doing something I love to do might be worth it. My wife has already gone over the pros and cons with me and on paper at least, the pros outweigh the cons. She agrees with me to just give it a shot as I'll always be wondering about it if I say no before I even start. And really, I totally agree here. Just give it a shot and see where I land. But I think I'm going to like it fine. And if not, I'll just stop. But I have to at least try...I've got to do at least that!
