There's a super low mileage miata that was reasonably priced near me that I almost purchased but dealer insisted on adding thousands extra in bs fees so I had to walk.
Have you checked out BAT ? There are lots of good deals there. Besides this forum, its become a regular website I check out

BTW, an easy way to post pics is to post in the "Go Advanced" section and use the paperclip icon. You don't need a minimum of posts to attach a pic, if I remember right.

Thank you for the attaching pic tip, much appreciated!

Yesssss that's the model I have! Try and get a newer one, the plastic trim on the back side is deteriorating on mine. I have found the best fix for that is non other than the Gel we've all been using thru the pandemic. Somehow it neutralizes the gooeyness and makes the surface smooth and non sticky. I used it for my older zoom camera where that plastic trim was all gooey. Saved me $ thousands from having to buy a new zoom camera!

Since my siblings, kids, and wife all have I phones and share family and trip pics with air play. I struck a deal with my wife to buy her 3 year old iPhone so I can use it unlocked to take family pics and share them too ( ironically I take more pics than all of them )
She will be getting the latest I phone - they don't come with a simple card drawer anymore. The new technology is " E Sim " from the chosen carrier

I sure hope we can keep up with this technology for the next 20-30 years

I'm a diehard blackberry guy - LOL

I’m actually quite impressed with it, which is surprising! Easy to set up, although I need to keep an eye on the number of pool lengths it counts, as I have a feeling it missed two yesterday.

Yep ! before the EV transition, Ive always wanted a fast project. I own a audi avant boosted, n55 f serie, n52 e serie, but nothing that can make over 350-400bhp...

Found this gem, low mileage, 98% fully loaded ( lombar missing so far), but ; excutive, comfort, sport, navi, m (retrofit) and 6mt .

Wife was like : no no no, you have enough ! and without saying anything , 2 min after, she txt back : OK , buy it, but I want my kitchen !

She knows how to negociate, but that was easy

can't wait to spring to start modding it.

If you care to check out a youtube channel called Itchy Boots, it features a Dutch woman who treks solo on a motorbike over massive klms. Her latest adventure has her travelling from Equador to the tip of Alaska on that very bike, a Honda CRF300 Rally.

Ended up getting the OSTER 4207 Electric Cordless Wine Bottle Opener. Works like a charm. Supposed to be able to open 30 bottles on a charge. Comes with foil cutter. Cheers!

I'm already retired and have my savings. Have been for a few years now. I can afford an inexpensive toy for myself.

I’m 37, no debt (undergrad, grad or CC), saved $50k this year (not including the Roth 401Ks), with an F82 and E92 (both paid off) to with an objective to retire very early, so need to stop spending on material stuff and focus on the real prize.

You're still young, got a ways to go. Okay to have some fun. But yeah, gotta be ready.

I'm sure you'll be fine.
