A soft top? Bold move
Yup. Soft Top.

But my first read through that, I thought it said you had NOTHING ELSE on order....then you went on to state you had a RAV4 Prime on order. True CCBA style.

- A co-worker of ours has been thinking of a GV80 for close to a year now. A couple weeks ago, he and his wife decide to go out looking...he ends up buying a nice GV80 Advanced + that was available on the lot. And based on our shopping, there are definitely GV80's available. Maybe not every color and option package, but they are available.
- Acura Integras may not be plentiful, but I could go buy one today if I decided Gray or Black was acceptable...and my color of choice in White is available to reserve for delivery within the next few weeks in my preferred White, with my choice of interior color.
- M2s seem to be coming down just a bit. My local BMW dealership had a 2020 with reasonable miles for low-$60k's that sat on the lot for a couple weeks. Not great pricing, but at least below original MSRP. I've also seen some OG M2's start to dip below $50k.
All just anecdotal, but I am hopeful. And for all the current demand for enthusiast cars, I think that segment will be hit the soonest, much like how I picked up my Supra in the middle of the pandemic.2024 Audi Q8 e-tron - 2024 Corvette - 2024 BMW X5 - 2023 Tesla Model Y

And I do know of two other Hyundai/Genesis shops that are at MSRP in the area.

Made an appointment to demo one after work. Summary...I haven't quite stricken it from consideration, but it makes Rivian's first offering that much more impressive. Quick thoughts:
- Styling is subjective of course, but I prefer Rivian's bolder look to the iX's, though I have to admit, it is pretty cool and futuristic.
- The BMW operates smoother and quieter than the Rivian. Letting up on the throttle is less abrupt, but I also found myself using the brake pedal more often in the BMW than I would have to in the Rivian (or the Polestar).
- I appreciate BMW's iDrive system in the iX - Rivian went with the Tesla approach...functions are almost entirely through the touchscreen menus. BMW's heads up display was pretty great too...Rivian doesn't offer one at all.
- Acceleration was more than fine in the BMW, but at the same price point, you're comparing Rivian's 800 hp quad-motor setup to the iX xDrive 50's "mere" 516 hp. The M60i version would cost quite a bit more.
- I've always loved the split tailgate of the X5...funny to me the iX ditches that but the Rivian has it.
Was told a current order of an iX would likely be delivered Q2 2023. Rivian is estimating second half of 2023. With the iX almost certainly losing the EV credit, it'll be interesting to see if wait times go down with order holders canceling.2024 Audi Q8 e-tron - 2024 Corvette - 2024 BMW X5 - 2023 Tesla Model Y

So in the realm of nothing is ever easy…
Just got an update on the RAM. They were getting ready to put it on the trailer and during PDI they noticed a crack in the windshield. The new one won’t be received until 8/18. Then they have to replace it and get it on a truck to me.
I just requested the paperwork to be all re-done. It has the lease starting on 8/3. By the time I receive the truck I’ll almost be a month in. I said they could date it for the day the windshield is replaced.
Now I need to scramble and get the S60 grounded as I was going to do that at a dealer local to where I am picking up the truck.

I do not use the phone while I'm driving. No texting, no picture taking, nothing. I make no calls, and usually won't even answer incoming calls on bluetooth. Unless it's an incoming call from the person I'm driving to meet, or a close relative or ...
Last night, in the pouring rain, I wouldn't have answered a phone call from anyone.

There has been a big discussion about this particular car on the Prelude FB groups. First sold on BAT in October 2019 for $13,500 (https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2001-honda-prelude-21/), then again in June of 2022 for $36,001 (https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2001-honda-prelude-54/) by the dealer that is now trying to make a tidy profit. You all know how much I love and adore my Prelude. No way I would even consider spending close to double it's original MSRP on one. Not even if it was pulled from the secret Honda garage with less than 1,000 miles and the technicians from the factory replaced replaced every seal, hose, and gasket.

Rare manual, though. Makes it worth a premium.
@nyccarguy $13,500 seems reasonable. The $36k does not. I think Elliott Alvis sold his Hellcat on Cars & Bids and it ended up going to a dealer in California hoping to sell it for a premium to the auction price.
Biggest single car purchase in our lives... both physically and financially biggest

Bigger financially than the TRX, or aren’t you counting that one?

I thought a little about leasing the sprinter today only because there is $1500 lease cash. BUT, then occurred to me that it would be way tougher to get rid of if need be. So just paying for it and getting title in hand.
Whether the Wagoneer will replace it remains to be seen. All depends on how we like living with it.

The X1 had the “secure vehicle when parked” error code repaired last week. That entailed replacing the shifter mechanism and it had a cold start issue fixed. Even at an indy, I don’t want to tell you what that cost.
I was out of town for a night last week and came home to find the kids 328 in the garage with plastic wrap on the back passenger window. Seems it has come off its track. I can hear the motor spin so hopefully its not that. Based on mileage and history, its also due for a belt replacement.
This morning I get into the Jeep to head to the lake and get a CEL. Tried cycling it a few times and reseating the gas cap but nothing worked.
Sigh…

The low steering wheel was a problem for me when using the clutch. And it’s a S2K, so that’s basically all of the time. It’s too bad because I’m a fan.
