Sure those are the worst but if you can afford one - do you care? I mean a Lambo! Who cares if it only gets 9 miles to the gallon , it would be a blast.

craig lieberman has a lamborghini diablo. i talked with him a little bit at the D1 drift show and he said it was cool at first but now he's bored with it. he's going to sell it cheap if anyone is interested. $180,000 i think. the car is really clean. oh, but he says stuff breaks all the time, and there is absolutely no warranty on the car for anything. he's dumped thousands of dollars into the car on things that shouldn't have broken in the first place. i was a little bummed to hear that.

craig is the original owner of the supra on the fast and the furious as well as the R34 skyline GT-R that was popular on the show circuit the last few years.

Scion was mentioned on MSNBC a few weeks ago:

Use the bottom link, the top one no longer has the xB photograph or link to the main article.

why do that when you can get one from motorex for just $80,000 or less?

the surgery to remove the ******** will probably cost almost that much anyway. and don't even think of doing it yourself. it hurts like a mother. trust me on that one.
