I'd Own It If I Could Afford To Maintain It

Here Are Five Dirt Cheap Used Cars That Cost More Than $100,000 New

2003 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG

This Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG was the buff S-class range’s fast one. It had a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 that pumped out nearly 500 horsepower with every amenity you, or any human in the next several stages of evolution, would ever realistically need.

It was damn near $150,000 brand new, but due to the fact that these models got a bad rep for being unreliable mainly because of a few simple-to-fix factors, prices dropped like a summer mixtape. High-mileage ones are in the price range that rivals a used Toyota Yaris, but make no mistake—it’s a ton of car for the money, even with costly repairs accounted for. I drive the non-supercharged version daily and it’s hard to beat the car for sheer luxury value per dollar.

Wait, Who Did What?

Don’t Act Surprised But Mike Trout Can Dunk Like Zach LaVine And Drain Threes Like Steph Curry

On Tuesday, the Golden State Warriors played host to their inner-state counterpart Los Angeles Angels, allowing a slew of the baseballers to hang out at their team practice. Pretty cool of them, if you ask me.

Not only did the Angels’ slugger show off his ability to throw down a decent dunk at will . . . . .

That would be Albert Pujols missing, Mile Trout dunking. Just another day at @warriors practice. #Angels #KTVU pic.twitter.com/GOP6qyqBOf

But evidently Trout can also stroke the corner three ball like Steph Curry (at least on this occasion when the cameras were rolling).
