p.s.
Miami Beach without the attitude? when do I book my flight!

As for Al Zarkawi the sheep fuc@ker, what comes around goes around. Too bad it took this long. But its true, one sheep fuc@ker taken down only results in 20 more waiting to take his pathetic place.

$1670 USD with todays exchange rate. Keep in mind the car cost about $80,000 USD here (and it is not the S model) due to importantion taxes so I consider it cheap. My driving recond here is clean. 50,000 pesos is about $20 and I got 1/2 a tank for that so I guess the price of gass is close. Al Zarkawi is enjoying is 70 virgins in hell.

wow its not much cheaper over there than it is here in the NYC area, That's hard to believe. At least tell me you can buy a nice house for less than $500,000!

RN,
You don't want to drive in the hills in any South American coutry. That's where the communist lunatic Rebels like to kidnap unsuspecting Americans like us.
We had to work with a K & R firm once to negotiate the return of this businessman who went nature hiking in heart of a battle zone of guerillas shooting at goverment troops and then some mercenary para military dudes waiting to shoot up what was left. The people there seem allot like the Isrealis I have worked with, danger all around and they're asking where the party is??!

Stay in the urban cities is what we were told. Same goes for Brazil, big kidnapping problem over there too.

Oh come on, this is a joke? There are "some" bad areas here but most of the place is perfectly safe. You just got to know where to go and where not to go. Ya, hiking in the hot zone would be dumb but there are other areas that are just as safe as anywhere in the US.

Would you tell someone not to go to NYC due to the terrorists attacks? Watch out for people like Timothy McVeigh before coming to the US? And lets all remember not to drive down I90 due to the snipers.

Man on Fire with Denzel Washington was more accurate. I know people who worked on that film. Nowadays they have this "express kidnapping" where ordinary people are kidnapped for as little as $500 and returned the next day. All carried out by low level street gangs. Very dangerous.

Cartagena, will you be taking your Boxster for drives in the hills?

as for NYC, its no joke but we are no more prepared for a terrorsit attack than we were 5 years ago. I still don't see bomb snfiffing dogs in the subways, no special x ray machines anywhere, barely a few military personnel (not 30 on a single block like you), air port procedureds still suck here at JFK and NEwark, I don't even see special see through garbage cans in the subways. Believe me its on the back of everyones minds. NYC is a very "tense" town in the areas where large numbers of people have to occupy the same space like Penn Station, Grand Central, The Port Authority, etc. not at all "friendly".

I have been in Bogota, Medellin, Barranquilla, Cartagena, Bucaramanga, Santa Marta, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Fortaleza, Buenos Aries, Caracas and probably a two dozen other South American cities.

But there was NOTHING as scary as the night I made a wrong turn in Detroit.

When I lived in Toronto I was quoted $9000 per year for a Dodge Stealth. My driving record in Canada is less than impressive with convictions for careless driving and no insurance. Back when I was in university I got caught with no insurance, that was like 14 years ago, but they keep that on the record (or at least they had it still in the computer 5 years ago). I think getting caught with no insurance is the worse thing in Canada since it is like slapping them in the face. I never owned a car in Canada in my name after that. On another interesting note they never collected the $500 fine either. Because it is not a criminal conviction they cannot issue a warrant, and because it is not a driving conviction they cannot suspend the licence (at least not 14 years ago!). Even to this day they collection agency in Brampton sends letters to my parents house asking for the $500. I tell them that if they ever call to come down to Colombia to collect it.

Still waiting to drive it!!!!!

Alot of you guys pay nothing for insurance. It is $4,000 a year for me to drive my Boxster since Im 18. I do not have a single ticket and I did this program to get a 10% reduction in my insurance and its still $4,000 a year and its a 99! Damn AAA!
Typically how old do you have to be driving for insurance rates to drop?

I think I see your "assistants" a$$ print on the rear fender!

Her a$$ is so small that if she sat on it there would be no print.

It's a crime that she is allowed to sit on that thing!!

Hey Cartagena, are you sure your assistant isn't from Jamaica?

Yes, I am sure since she did not steal the car when she had the keys.

Youch, you guys are paying a lot for insurance! I pay $1200 a year for the Box, a Lincoln Continental, a Jeep Cherokee, a Dodge Pick-em-up truck, a Chryslerati TC and a Horse Van on an International Harvester Loadstar chassis...think Uhaul truck designed to carry 4 horses.
