My wife knows when I've arrived to pick her up from work. She's on the fifth floor of a high rise 😳 🤣

What really defines insurance risk is their actuarial tables. Their bible.

Calling it a Probe sealed it's fate.

Compliments, deserved or not, just make us feel good. So does a thank you in return. We were sitting outside a cafe in Rome one evening and this quite spectacular middle aged Roman woman, dressed to the nines, walking past said "che bellissima" while looking at us. I knew for sure it wasn't me...

I'll reserve judgement until final paintwork. generally I'm not a fan of extreme aero on street cars. It looks a bit try hard. And also a lot of "look at me, Officer".

I give it a pat, and the lights wink at me😘

OK, it might be the rarity factor here, but mine gets plenty of wows.

I don't know much about Dragy and V Box, but I did read that both refresh at a very high rate to keep acceleration data accurate.

One thing I'll add, and it's not just Mustangs, the raised bonnets (hoods) for pedestrian protection spoil the lines a bit on modern cars.

Apart from BMW nostrils.

Thank you. Completely forgot wheelspin.👍

This is the thing. It's not really about colour, it's more about attitude and entitlement. It also doesn't help that we are becoming evermore divided on racial lines, driven by, as usual, politicians. This is a very different country now to the one I was born and grew up in. Which is a crying shame.

They do even better in Italy and Dubai. Lamborghini Huracans, Urus Performante, Gallardo, etc.

They call a friend.

It has to remain distinctively American. Some of these examples look great, but not much different to many Euro and Japanese designs. I think Ford nailed it with the S650 inside and out. I was not interested in the previous models for various reasons. That's speaking as someone new to the...

It used to be that women and the elderly attracted lower premiums. Better accident rates. There doesn't seem to be much of a difference now, my wife pays about the same for her car. There is still a preference for older drivers though. And living in small towns.

It would not surprise me if it were an unmentioned thing here. Our Maori population have an atrocious driving history in general. If an Insurance co saw a Maori name there may be a subtle increase in premiums. On the other hand, an awful lot of people here, of all ethnicities don't bother to...

Same here. Pristine driving record for both of us, both over 50, in my case a lot, no at fault claims for 18 years, and the bloody premiums keep going up. But here's thing, 2025 GT 5.0 $93,000, premium $1280pa. 2023 Skoda Kamiq $40,000, premium $1250pa. And a mates 2022 Suzuki Jimney $23,000...

Yeah Yeah way, GT 5.0 = $NZ93,000, DH = $NZ114,000. Stingray $NZ208,000.
