In his first post, he said dropped $5K in downpayment in order to lease the car. Maybe that's why he is so mad.

Damn, I missed out on the funnies

Hmmm... I didn't think the thread was going to take a turn like it did a few pages back.

Best show on the net right now

Drive (and Chris in particular) is probably one of the best things for auto enthusiasts, ever.

It's one of the best automotive shows since I first found Top Gear 10 years ago IMHO.

Really, where does it come on? I may have to check it out.

It's on YouTube. The Smoking Tire and Chris's show are the ones I like particular.

Do a search for Drive on YouTube.

I didnt read the whole thing, but it was something along the lines of $5K down and $299 a month, which is like $15K for 3 years on a base model. I guess I would be mad too if I got shafted like that.

He went over a hill and the rear end got loose - this isnt an uncommon thing. Furthermore, he's on base wheels/tires which arent TOO particularly sticky.

The only thing he's trying to show off is that the Boxster and BRZ's driving dynamics are exceptional compared to the 370's which is still relatively good.
