Its funny, its 22 pounds lighter and has dual exhaust!

they could have said, "Its 50 pounds lighter!!" and left off the unnecessary extra pipe / cat / muffler / oxygen sensor / wiring.

Unless its a fakie dual exhaust with a dual outlet muffler. I'd bet thats what it is.

Lots of these cars that were serious status cars are now affordable. Things work out that way.

Instead of a new normal car, check out a Porsche 911. All of those "old" cars are maintained and treated WAY better than a 1 year old "mainstream" car.

It's smarter. Get something cheap and reliable for $500, then make your monthly payment on a 1980s Ferrari or something.
