EDIT: Ayn Rand was most definitely NOT a commie!

She was born in Russia and immigrated to the US as communism and Stalin was taking hold, in the 1920's (if my history memory is correct). That's why I called her jokingly a commie.
Offroad35, quit trying to stir the pot, and stop making me laugh.

my father loves cars... and I do too.
and back home in Singapore... all import cars have 300% tax on it... He thinks cars are cheaper here... (true!)
example: Ferrari 360 Modena is close to USD$500k in Singapore... not worth it right? You can get a used Murcielago here.

oh yeah, I asked about the rear bumper, they said it was easy, simple replacement, but make sure u get a good after market parts, so it should fit easier.
they said the front was more trickier.

College student, and YES my dad bought the car for me, I appreciate it but I am shy since I am driving a car that's actually a gift... So, work hard! study hard! and continue my family business back in my country, wish me luck guys so I can afford luxury cars from my own pockets...

Then there's the person on eBay who ripped me off by selling me a supposedly factory CD changer. Got a broken nonfactory unit. I'm starting to feel like driving a TT and living in a nice house is akin to putting a sign on my back saying "please steal from me". At this point, although I've only been ripped off twice in my life (both times within about 2 mos), I trust no one. I pay by VISA, or I don't buy it...
