Having a hard time taking the ad seriously, for $7,300 and over a

near-perfect.

They’re not bad if well cared for. Like any small, high revving engine, oil
changes are critical for them. There are known issues with supercharger seals
and leakage, but again, these are known and not terrible to deal with.

My guy in Houston at MDAnderson agrees, but once it’s determined you have
prostate cancer (by seeing an increase in your PSA as you diligently monitor
it), the digital exam is a must because they can tell a great deal by the feel
