Now you tell a customer a new 220 HP MKVII GTI is $34900 @ 1.9% and they react "OMG11!!!1!!1 Your interest is so HIGH and carz so expense!1!1!!!!1"
My old '03 GLI VR6 is still the best car I've ever had. I miss it almost every day.

On the note of price, I have an 05 cavalier I bought to flip. Has the original window sticker with it. This car has no options. Manual windows, manual locks, no A/C, $17995 + tax and delivery when it was new. That surprised me.
