Once Russia collapses? If that happens, screw gas prices. We may find ourselves in the midst of WWIII! Once Russia gets desperate enough, they start invading their neighbors! It's a very delicate situation. But yes, all this under the assumption gas prices were to remain cheap for 6-12 months. Get a gas guzzling car for a few months, have fun with it, and flip it for an f80. Not sure why that is so difficult to imagine. |

Unfortunately, Not until March. The dealer knows what I want because the order guide was released but no allocations have been given out yet. At least not to my local dealer.

I had a chance to drive one. Buddy got a challenger and we swapped for 2 days. First day, I drove half throttle off every light. That was fun. Then I realized I was soon going to get arrested. Once I had the girlfriend in the car going to dinner, different story. Had to take it easy, hold a conversation, make a phone call for reservations. Running errands and around town is a totally different story. It was very apparent at that point it was still a $20k vehicle with a $30k motor.
Although it was fun, the whole car is more of a novelty. When you try to drive it around town, commute to work, the refinement just isnt there. A base 3 series would be light years above this thing in terms of tech, steering feel, nav speed, phone clarity. etc.

Bummer. Was really looking forward to it. Maybe I can find it as a rental at one of those exotic car rental places? |

Get a CPO one. With the new Panamera coming, you can get a decent deal on old one once the new one come out probably in 2016 as MY 2017.

Some other options.
CTS-V wagon. Nothing says cool like snubbing your nose at the SUV obsession and driving a real wagon, a real mean arsed wagon at that. Try the Commodore (Chevy SS) with the 'Vette engine in it. |

6.2L of German fury. 507 horsepower. An ECU tune will provide even more power/torque for less than $1k. Then, if you add headers and an exhaust, you'll be making enough power to reverse the Earth's rotation. Loud? Check. Your neighbors will love you.

I like the new Hellcats and if you like it definitely go for it.
I don't think current gas prices should affect your decision that much. Yes, right now gas prices are pretty good, but within 3-5 years, I think they'll return to what we've had before. |
