A: Oh, hell no. I'm with you that $500K is house money, not car money. Maybe if I magically become a billionaire or something I'll change my mind. I got a copy of the window sticker of a Carrera GT today from the one that the local dealship sold. It reads $448,000. In case you were wondering, that is fully loaded.

Q: So what car would you buy/build for $200K then?

Great minds think alike! We should probably hold back around $10K for a week of driving school if we are going to have a beast like that.

Incidentally, I read some military guy talking about how the concussion from a bomb blast can kill a person and leave it looking fairly untouched.

A: The whole corpse thing is strange, but apparently we have to prove he's gone to everyone. I'd say the pic is getting the message across.

Q: Have you ever tracked your car?

A: No. But I used to disable the odometer cable on my parents dodge so I could drive wherever I wanted as a teenager. They never caught on. Took 15 years for me to tell them.

Q: Have you ever had a long distance love affair?

A: Yes, but none of them lasted very long.

Q: Will you put a gps device on your kids' car so that you can track them from home?

A: No, there has to be a certain level of trust. I don't parent that way. The kids need to learn how to be adults and make the proper choices. Where does that begin? Any consiquences will be the burden of the kids. I won't equip the kids with a very fast car though. Maybe some big old Detroit steel?

Q: What do you do when you want something so BAD, but you know that it wouldn't be good for you?
