Just put a deposit on a US model Oscar. Car is on the lot so the only thing stopping me from having it when I get to LA in a week is paperwork. Maybe insurance. Maybe a California drivers license.

The man wears leopard print thongs, he's obviously into cats, not horses.

The headlights are the car version of a white person imitating an asian persons eyes. Which is ironic.

Nice colour!

np, and the edit was for me. I find women more attractive this way.

Edit

Shoot, did you modify your first post before or after my post?

For some reason I was expecting like a Corvette, or a Lotus, or something else that wasn't grey.

Tuna's like Game of Thrones, a show that got a lot of it's buzz for subverting one's expectations, but then took it too far and subversion became the ends without any meaning.

jk. Unlike Game of Thrones, if you followed Tuna's character arc, he actually remains consistent. He's been wanting a Fiesta ST for forever.

I'm still bitter.

F the King's Guard. F the city. F the king. And F Season 8.

Shame you couldn't find a green one with the molten orange interior like you originally wanted.

Pretty sure he found one of the last ones on the continent still on a dealer lot. He was struggling with dealers all across Canada. There was a point he was considering trying to find one in Mexico.

Nice spec, Magnetic with the black wheels and no sunroof. Almost identical to the one I tried to order.

I’ve been keeping tabs on used ones locally, prices haven’t changed much in the last 1-2 years.

Same. There was a used one (not listed) in Edmonton going for a reasonable price. May have sold privately. SSS put me on to it.

Car is tentatively named "Oscar" until another name manifests itself.

Consider a double entendre of the name as Ozcar, me being Australian and all that. Plus, I'm a grouch who's dead on the inside (ask my wife).

But you don't live in a garbage can.

I mean you have a relatively happy outlook on life.
