Oh... yes! 100% agree those lines are better than the Fastback we grew accustomed to see.

Old Sammy boy made a nice little profit on his investment. I don't really like the color, but I sure wouldn't pass it up. Beige is best suited to couches, and drapes, don't get me wrong, it's better than that bright yellow I've seen Ferrari's wear, but I think the LaFerrari would look amazing in a nice midnight blue, with just a suggestion of really small metal flake.

Why some Mechanics are leaving the business. And/or, why some .. independent mechanics are going out of business:

I think I've seen this at a couple of shops I've used. One is an independent in town. ALWAYS has 6-8 cars on the left side of his lot. Another one is a Monro off of a heavily trafficked secondary road. It also ALWAYS has 6-8 cars at the rear of the lot, filling-in to the right edge.

I can't think of a single independent shop, that I don't see a few "extra" cars hanging around. Of course you never really know why those 4 or 5 cars parked in the lot, but with a full lot, and full bays, you have to figure some of the cars are done and waiting to be picked up.

A lot of people buy their car at credit while not being able to pay the maintenance plus everything in modern cars is all electronic and computerized, you don't have a carburettor or key ignition switch like on older cars, you don't have door locks anymore. Maintening a collectible from the 60's -70's costs even more money but it is easier to repair. Having done some repairs on my uncles mopars and my uncles older cadillacs from the late 60's early 70's it has nothing to do with modern engine ebay. Nothing sounds more amazing like a big block engine revving.Even my distant unce from Switzerland keeps his Mercdes 560 SEL as his main car and he never wanted any modern Mercedes.
Possible changes to the automotive industry:

Here are some more specific proposals:
- Repealing the emission standards that, in effect, can only be met through selling electric vehicles.
- Freezing Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards for \"at least a decade.\"
- Prohibiting California from following a separate set of emission standards from the rest of the nation.
Easily a 150000$ car especially if it has the Marti Auto Report and build sheet
The electric vehicles aren't so popular in the USA , many people like gasoline powered cars. Old timers and people liking performance prefer v8 big block engines. An electric car is much expensive to repair than a 440 Mopar cubic inches v8 or than a 455 cubic inches Olds or Pontiac V8 or than a 460 cubic inches Lincoln/Mercury V8 or than a 454 cubic inches Chevy V8. You can always find spare parts to boost them in horsepower and make them using unleaded gasoline.Very hardly the case with the electric cars.

I found a good mechanic that I have been using. I only want him to touch my truck from now on. I want to extend the life of my 2014 GMC Sierra SLT Z71 that has less than 60,000 miles on it. Great truck that gets very acceptable gas mileage with a 355 hp engine. My fat ass has nicely broken in the leather captain's chairs too. I only wish I had a better entertainment system.
