That's the truth though. Interiors in general, up until a few years ago, were FAR more driver oriented. Now we have self driving shit, lane assist, screens everywhere that take focus off the experience, and massaging seats that'll put your ass to sleep. Modern stuff might be more comfy but majority lack the mechanical connection between driver and machine.

[@James-qe9lu]

@@gregbelial4613 You can get an 09-13 with low miles for around 50k, not including the import fees and all that for you to get it to Poland. Not sure how that all works really but can give you the base price for a good model. That price can change pretty quick depending on color and options. Reliability is solid since it’s an LS, would have some head work done if you plan to drive it hard as some LS7s had top end issues that could turn catastrophic (drop a valve). Also if you’re a collector… depending on budget, would highly recommend looking into the same generation ZR1 in Jetsream Blue or Inferno Orange. Those will hold value much better and will probably make you money when sold in the future. Hope this helps!
