What were they thinking????

As mentioned in another thread I was at the dealer yesterday to get my front end aligned.....well my dealer is not only a mazda dealer...but all in the same place there is also Nissan's and Hondas....all in a row....

SO, naturally I am walking through the lot checking every thing out.....I actually found a 350Z with a sticker of ONLY $27000!! I was amazed....i was reading the window sticker and they go to the extent of describing the car and say its a "two passanger", Okay...since there are only two seats that makes sence...DUH! then a few lines down it states that there are THREE CUP HOLDERS......WHAT THE HELL FOR!! THERE ARE ONLY TWO PEOPLE IN THE CAR! geeeeeeeeeezz moron engineers! lol

Then I walked over to another one...it was the copper color...really nice lookin...and the sticker on it was $35,000!! holy crap....I thought to myself how in the hell do you stuff $8000 worth of extras in this car and the complete drivetrain and suspension systems are the same......well folks....you can do it....all the way down to the HEATED STEERING WHEEL! LOL it was too much. that sucker had more bells and whistles in it than ANY person would know what to do with.

Just one extra cup holder a freind of mine has a navigaor, this thing is trully amazing. It seats 7 and has more cup holders then I have ever seen there is like one for every person and some emergency cup holders that come out of the dash.
From what I here the second arm rest thing in the middle of the car doubles as a cooler.

I actually ask...and that IS the price of that particular car....it was black and very nice looking.....they were surprised when they were sent a car that had absolutely nothing but the pure standard equipment and NO extras on it at all.....odds of finding one like that at a dealer are slim. It sure made it affordable though!

Actually, the 3 cupholders is perfect for someone like my ex-girlfriend who always had to have a bottle of water AND a Coke AND an iced tea. And a pitstop every 40 miles.

my husband and I always stick our cell phones in the cup holders so 3 cup holders would be good for us!

See i don't need 3 cupholders, just 2 cupholders that can manage a big gulp dammit. My pro can bearly handle a McD's soda. And with the radar detector socket blocking one of the cupholders i'm down to only one!
