Not me.

The cars I've owned:

1965 Mustang Fastback

1972 Nova SS

1994 RX-7

1988 RX-7

2005 Grand Cherokee (for those keeping score this was my first car with cupholders)

2010 Mazda3

2004 F250

1990 Miata

First car was an '89 RX-7. Bought it in '01 with 63k miles. Loved it, until some redneck in a Ram 1500 turned right out of a left turn lane and drove over the front of it. :(

I will some day own another FC RX-7.

My first was a '90 GXL.  Bought it from some Grandma with 27,000 miles in 2004.  I was the greatest thing.  I miss it so much.  I'm trying to find another one with a 5 spd.  I'd love to be able to find a turbo II that needs to be rebuilt for super cheap.  They don't pop up on Craigslist like they used to.

yeah, mine was an auto, but I had already lined up a TII/5-speed swap as well as full suspension... then it was wrecked :(  oh, to be young, have no real expenses and a bright red RX-7... that car was pretty much the only reason I worked at that point in my life haha

 

I recently saw a black 89 TII with rebuilt seals on CL for $7000... drooled over it for a few days before the listing finally dropped off

Mine was too. Having an auto really sucked in that car.  The only reason I got rid of it was because I was having a kid.  Sure at that point it needed to be painted and It had its fair share of electronic gremlins.  Still got 3 grand for it and the chick who bought it ended up blowing the motor about 4000 miles later.  Saw it for sale on a forum about a year ago but it already sold...

    • I think you misunderstand what I mean by "significantly better than Bryce Young." That gets you entry into the top 30 NFL starting QB's. Not sure if you have seen that group recently, but it's not a strong one the further down that list you go. Murray is a Tier 3 if not Tier 4 QB in my book.
    • Here is where you are… for purely the sake of arguing with me you are willing to suggest the 2025 Saints RBs might not be better than the 2025 Panthers RBs lol Saints have the 28th ranked rush attack.  We are top 10.   The Saints haven’t had a 100 yard rusher the entire season.  We have seen franchise best performances in a franchise known for running the rock. and see above for what our OL is also clearly better than the Saints.  Hell, Canales being forced into some mashups has often made it even stronger at times 
    • I am not saying there isn't truth to that but the economics and reality of the NFL are producing that. It's very hard to justify taking a guy in the 1st round, shelving him for years, having to make a contract extension and THEN hoping it all turns out okay. Not to mention, imagine that scenario after what we traded for Bryce. One thing is for certain, the QB desperation has led to bad 1st round QB picks for 15+ years now. That ain't new.  I think we need to decide on Bryce's future this offseason and we will have to. In my eyes, picking up the 5th year option is the "all-in" move for a two year period. That means you are committed to him in the medium term. Not the move I would personally make.  No matter what the decision is, I have been vocal about needing to bring in multiple QB's to improve that QB room for when Bryce falters again. How about just overall improving your team depth so that when it doesn't pan out, you at least have options on the roster? I don't feel like that is too much to ask and it's a valid bet hedge.
