Lol, alright man. I'm not gonna further derail this thread in a vain attempt to prove someone unconversant over the internet as you are so inclined to try. I've already stated my qualms with the P71.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

well then I will just go ahead and tell you.. A brake job on a BMW Starts at $500.00 per axel

But you are gonna say.. No WAY... for Pads??? And I am going to say ..You can't just replace the pads on a BMW and you're gonna say ,,, Bullshit man I Know that they're just pads .. and I will say No because the  pads eat through the discs so the discs wear out before the pads and then you say Bullshit man those discs are steel and..

 

Here you go... Repairing a BMW is Expensive

REPAIRING A HONDA Is Just as EXPENSIVE...

AMERICAN CARS ARE NOT THAT EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR... You can get 95% at a recycle yard at 10 cent on the dollar.

As far as the parts wearing out faster on American cars that's just horsecrap.

 

Then check out your insurance payment.. More value

 

That p71 is twice the car at Half the price.

lol dude, think of it this way. You are the grease money who gets to fix it when it breaks, I'm the guy on the computer designing it from scratch.

I'm going shopping, have a good Sunday :)

Hah..no. I have not seen any indication of that being true at all.

 

Either way, back to the car. Ford Panther platform cars have quite a following themselves and the respect among car enthusiasts. Outfit a P71 with some Mercury Marauder parts, and you have a pretty beast car.

There is a reason why Honda and Toyota hold their values more. 

A used Civic from 2006 costs around 4 grand here in Vancouver, even with the tanking Canadian Dollar.

Don't. Just don't. Do yourself a favor and NOT get a police interceptor. there are a lot better cars for money. hell if it were me, i'd get a 2002 audi a4, or even s4 and basically keep it and upgrade it once in a while. you can do so much with a B5 S4. i've seen B5 S4s go for around 7 grand, A4s even less. and i'd recommend you go manual with these.

see @TheGeeker i found an s4 for under 4 grand. http://mendocino.craigslist.org/cto/5482385605.html it just needs a little TLC (and like a little bit, like fixing door damage and installing new steering rack). and you can do whatever you want with the money you didn't spend buying the car, including upgrading the car.

Man you are brutal...

Twin turbos and a rack and pinion that needs to be replaced...

He's had the part but he was to lazy to replace it...

Makes you wonder when the last time he changed the oil in it..

It was his daily driver

Well at least it isn't one of those that took off by themselves...
