Georgia freshman LB cited for going 88 in 55 mph zone

Dude, it was a joke. I also said I hate him. Did you think that was serious too? The generous part was sarcastically suggesting he give me his car. Nothing in my comment you referenced was meant to be serious.

I didn’t say he was or wasn’t being serious … I get that it was a joke … however people who are not car fans and don’t have tons of money to blow on one don’t know of these options. I merely stated you can do a lot or as much with half the budget. I’m not the one who needs to relax.

 

[Orangezoo]

He spoke about feeling generous the point I made was you can have that same or better experience at half the price. As I said for half the cost you could bury a car someone paid $70K for .. I wasn’t being snobby … now if I said I spent $140K on a vehicle to bury a hellcat that could be seen as snobby or pretentious… saying there is a more affordable way makes me snobby .., so be it.

Nah- you spend 140k all I'd care is to get a chance to check out the ride. Not snobby at all.

 

[wfschrec]

So saying there is a cheaper way to have the same thrill is? I guess it’s a bold new world we live in.

Now you're back tracking. Don't act as if you were trying to educate people that don't know cars. You were engaging a couple of car guys and basically saying the cars they like were overpriced and overhyped. That's cool if you think that. It's just a weird place to have the discussion and it's kinda weird making those statements while ignoring the cost of a brand new BMW. I'm not a Bimmer guy and you are. They're good cars. I'm glad you like yours.

Incidentally, the platform of the Challengers and Chargers are actually closely related to a german platform that was shared with Mercedes back when they owned Chrysler.

Saying it? Nah. Going on about conquests over a more expensive car including the one being discussed? Yeah.

E class I believe.

Oh right you bought for the crash test ratings … damn.

 

[Orangezoo]

I will say if saving that 40k for a beamer is to find a way to make sure Lequint can play them I'm all in. That's a good reason

Actually I have no idea what either of you know. Especially since I had this same exact convo three weeks ago with someone who wanted to buy a GT500 and couldn’t afford it.

 

[FasterCuse]

Is LeQuint in the next fast and furious xixxx? Oh whoops wrong thread.

No I actually chose to prevent a friend from going homeless but continue to pretend to know me.

 

[Orangezoo]

The lines and design - only modern car that is close to the original muscle era versions plus the engine and that unmistakable Hemi purr. The engine and power is part of that too yes.

Good lord. Was just a general comment not about you. That's awesome you did that. Your friend is blessed to have you.

So you know a lot of folks that randomly save $40K on cars and choose philanthropy? Give me a list and I'll point them to charities. I mean you must if you are able to make such a "general" comment. Whatever, it is what it is. #letlequintplay

If you say so. The info you dropped in the first reply would've likely gone over the head of someone that doesn't know cars. Then, when I tried to diplomatically point out that both modding and buying new are great options for different people with different reasons, you didn't want to hear it. Have a good night. Back to Lequint.

Why do you think I included a source article with a buildout? Because I don't know your knowledge base. Man you need a hug or something?

FYI. You are talking to someone who grew up dirt poor and has worked with and for non profit agencies including philanthropy work and program management for 20 years.

My comment was in jest about having 40k to help towards making sure Lequint gets to play would be a damn good reason to go for a cheaper car for anyone.

This is nuts. Let's just get this young man reinstated where he belongs.

I agree with your last sentence.

I prefer Itallian

JK for real though I still get kind of jelly when I pull up next to a Challenger.

Haha well can't go wrong there. Give me an AR ( not the gun to not get folks excited) when it comes to Italian cars.

Alfas are legit. Too small for me though..

And yet another UGA player gets arrested for super-speeding... no suspension.

football above all else in the south. That's why SU will never beat them. We suspend players for far less
