If the owner has multiple offers of course they are gonna wanna take the highest offer. So if you bid lets say 185,000 on the place but then someone comes in at 188,000, of course you are screwed. OR they could deny ALL offers and just keep it on the market hoping for a better price. I hope Im explaining it right. Bucket will be better able to explain Im sure

I'd say it is almost as screwed as my ZL1 order :shakes head:

Fire 05-25-2012 08:30 PM

OK so it is almost like a silent auction with a reserve. I understand that.

Yet booze and TOBACCO are legal. Ill tell you what, I do way dumber sh1t when Im drunk than when Im stoned. They wanna blame weed, call it a gateway drug. You know what?? I bet just about everyone can attest to trying either alcohol OR tobacco before marijuana. What really confuses me is why its not legal yet. The money made off taxes alone would be astronomical, literally. PLUS, hemp is an amazing resource. Paper, clothes, you name it.

On the same topic I found a product called HEMP HEARTS in the food store not long ago. Its actual shelled hemp seeds that you eat! They taste like a mix between sunflower seeds and walnuts. Was amazed a product like that was available.

I've never smoked. I do have the occasional alcholic beverage though.

I'll tell you this, I'd rather hang out with people that are high on weed, than extremely drunk people.

I'd guess one reason the herb isn't legal yet, is because of the people jailed with herb related offenses. That's a can of worms no politician wants to open.

Actually Mythbusters has tested drunk driving, driving while high and extremely sleepy drivers and high drivers did very well. Sleepy and drunk where about the same, terrible. NY has discussed making it legal.

Bucketlist2012 05-25-2012 08:41 PM

Damn, I left for a minute and I missed everything..

I get first shot at it because I know people, so before it hits the MLS, I will have an offer in, and I will write in that I can have first crack at beating any offer by 1000 Dollars.

Short sales are not the best way to go, REO's are because they are already reading to go and you only deal with the bank.

But I have a way off pulling off the impossible..

If it is meant to be, it will happen.

GM is supposed to fill the remaining 2012 ZL1 orders with 2013 models. Also, the plant is not producing for the first two weeks in July...

Fire 05-25-2012 08:51 PM

I've heard that June 10th is the first day of production on the 2013's.

I burned for many years. Haven't in years, but I agree it is the lesser of all evils..

But you have to grow your own..Buying it is very bad financially, just too expensive.

I did grow my own chronic once..Six seven footers, and one eight footer.. Cola's the size of Baseball Bats..Several pounds that lasted me eight or nine years...

But that was back in the day..

Just look at the Nuremberg Ring time and what cars it was faster than. I'd say that track really shows everything with how long it is and the ability to achieve top speed of the cars.

Me too, I forget that we talk about cars.

Plus, my Wife's 370Z sits more than it goes, I don't do mods on it, what else am I going to talk about ?

Genuinely good people and no haters.. Very hard to find on the haternet..:tup::tiphat:

From autoblog.com

How quickly do you think the Porsche 911 Turbo S can make its way around the Nürburgring? How about the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640, or the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG? The Ferrari 430 Scuderia? Would you believe all those amazing machines have been timed at around seven minutes, forty seconds around the famous German race track.

And so has the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1.

Driven by GM test driver Aaron Link, using a production-spec car with no performance modifications, the 580-horsepower (and 556 pound-feet of torque) ZL1 proved 40 seconds faster than the regular-grade Camaro SS, says the automaker. It's also a bit quicker than the 7:59 recorded by GM for the Cadillac CTS-V, though not quite as blistering as the Corvette Z06 and ZR1.
