  1. To know how much they can get from you before you walk out the door? Yes, knowing how much the customer "thinks he can afford" can surely make or break a deal. Now why else would he have an interest in watching "my money"?

  2. I will bet you money that in that older car, the catalytic converters are further away from the exhaust valves than in newer cars, (which are now as close as possible.). I suspect that the 2010 Lexus was made with good quality, but I know the cats are restrictive, and being so close drastically raises engine temps. I also know the EPA can care less how long your internal combustion engine lasts, and does not want it to last 300,000 miles. I build race engines for a living, and I know, on my dyno, that if I restrict he exhaust just a bit, engine temps go flying up, especially at higher rpm's.

  3. Bull Crap. What color is the sky in your imaginary world?

  4. 2009 was a while ago. With today's catalytic converters so close to the exhaust valves, not letting heat escape the engine in an effort to burn every hydrocarbon molecule, no enteral combustion engine will, hit 300,000 miles again. Do you think the EPA dictatorship really cares how much your now much more expensive car/engine, (regulation costs us a lot of money, and kills market share), lasts?
