If yours uses that much, you need to stop doing your own oil changes.

Well, it would sure eat away at my Soc Sec check...

IAC, at my age, 85-years, there is the additional costs of modification/customization to think about:

My wife wouldn’t ride in it either and would really object to a younger girlfriend too.

Besides, one female is enough.

"Obviously, you are a automotive ..."

Rebuilt my first engine over 50 years ago.

"and Mopar expert.(extreme sarcasm)"

Not really a Mopar expert but even the 1971 Challenger I had was better looking.

As for exotic cars the Charger is not even in the same class as far as looks and performance ...

Yes, if my car used that much oil. However, with these cars, it’s the only way to protect the parts.

That's amazing.

I had no idea that non-professionals could drive on the track.

Just recently, a new lap record was set at Nürburgring - one car, no one else on the track.

Have you seen the You Tube video?

The driver beat the old record by more than a minute!

“However, with these cars, it’s the only way to protect the parts.”

Care to cite any references?

The lap record video is a problem. They allow auto manufacturers to rent the whole track for a day, which means that regular people can’t use the track on that day, and this is not always announced well ahead of time. If you only have 1 day to visit, it’s possible that the track could be closed on that day.
At any rate, they really do allow just about any vehicle to take a lap. If this is of interest to you, you really need to click on the link below:

With a removable top maybe?

The 25 YO’s hair would be a wonder

If "removable top" refers to the car...No way...

If "removable top" refers to the 25 YO...All the way...

Completely awesome You Tube video!

Every kind of vehicle from a Rolls Royce to a tricked out Vespa motorcycle.

Hard to believe that average citizens are not killed every day on that track.

A few years ago I read that unlimited speed limits have been phased out almost everywhere on the Autobahns.

Nürburgring is the perfect antidote.
