Curious as to what he's driving now. 85k is a great deal for that car, plus it has a cool background

Any stories following this car?

Price seems a bit high, or am I just wishing?

I'm curious, if I had not asked who Chip Ganassi was (I know now) and why I should care would this thread have survived with the end result?
