2019 Mercedes-Benz A250 Hatchback

Welcome back to another installment of “This is how you get your car crushed.” This is a 2019 Mercedes-Benz A250 … hatchback up for sale in Bellingham, Washington. If you live in the US and are wondering why you’ve never seen these zipping around, it is because we were never blessed with him. You can see how having one of these for sale in the state of Washington could be a problem. This is very clearly a Canadian-market car that made its way down to Washington where it sits today at this dealership with a really bizarre logo that doesn’t give off any kind of Parteiadler vibes. Nope, nothing strange about that.

1990 Porsche 944 S2 Cabriolet

Porsche didn’t really have a lot going on in the early 1990s. For the 1990 model year, they had the 911, the aging 928, and the 944. I suppose you could count the 959 as well, but production “officially” ended in 1988 with a handful per year being made up until 1993. That means your options were quite limited if you wanted a Porsche but thankfully there was the 944 S2 Cabriolet if you coveted a convertible but didn’t have 911 money. Truth be told, I think the 944 S2 looks great considering what it is and the improvements that were made over the years along with an adequate inline-four that came in with slightly over 200 horsepower. After these became “old” cars, prices have stayed low enough that anyone on a small budget could swing one as long as they had a Porsche specialist in the general area that didn’t hate working on them.

Today we have a 1990 up for sale in Texas that seems to be up to date in service but isn’t exactly matching the asking price when it comes to the cosmetics of the car.

2021 Mercedes-Benz E450 All-Terrain

Who said cars were dead? In one of the more surprising moves I’ve seen recently, Mercedes-Benz decided to launch an “all-terrain” version of the E-Class literally called the E450 All-Terrain. It is the standard E-Class wagon with some bizarre black body cladding along with a 29mm higher ride height thanks to the Air Body Control air suspension and standard 4MATIC all-wheel drive. Why did Mercedes bring this to the US? Well, to cut into Audi A6 Allroad and Volvo V90 Cross Country sales, of course.

If you are looking for pure utility without buying an SUV or crossover, here you go.

2023 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS

Who knew it would be so hard to spend several hundred thousand dollars on a very niche car? In the latest episode of “Buying a new car is a miserable experience” we have the drama surrounding the new Porsche GT cars and people getting their feelings hurt over it. The short of it is select loyal customers are given allocations to new GT3 and GT4 RS cars only for them to be offered up on the used market for tens of thousands of dollars over what they paid after they took a few laps around the cul-de-sac. This leads to the salesman down at the dealership that sold the car to the owner texting threatening messages to the owner stating their relationship is over in the same style as 15-year-olds do when a member of the opposite sex is spending a little bit too much time at another person’s locker in between classes at the junior high school. I wish I was joking.

Today, we have a 2023 GT4 RS up for sale in California with actually a fair amount of miles on the odometer, a whole 717, for around $100,000 over what the sticker price was. Worth it to not deal with a dealer?

2022 Porsche Boxster 25 Years

Last year we saw the surprise unveiling of the Porsche Boxster 25 Years which was pretty self-explanatory in terms of what it was all about. It was a 718 Boxster with some special touches to celebrate the original Boxster that debuted in 1997 and most importantly, drive more hype for the brand. Just 1,250 examples were produced and thankfully used the 4.0-liter from the 718 GTS. Just three colors, GT Silver Metallic, Jet Black, or Carrara White, and standard gold wheels. Inside, Bordeaux Red or black leather. The rest of the options were up to you but most were equipped with a handful of nice stuff that pushed the sticker price well over $100,000. I know it sounds crazy to spend that kind of money on a Boxster, but think of this more as a GTS that is individually numbered and has a bunch of equipment only offered on 1,250 cars. Doesn’t seem so crazy anymore.

This example is one of the GT Silver Metallic cars with a Bordeaux Red top and matching interior that I favor given it is closest to the actual concept car. Even better? This is a 6-speed example.
