To buy a good car, they still had to go to Phoenix.
Flagstaff was a small, wealthy city, but it was still a small city. Its population was only a fraction of that of Phoenix. The bigger market was in the state capital.
The two of them took a Greyhound bus to the state capital. This type of bus was one of the most developed roads in the United States, and could be said to be the symbol of American transportation.
The Greyhound bus station in Flagstaff was quite old. It was usually well maintained, so it looked ancient and was even used by tourists as a tourist destination.
Hans was in charge of buying the tickets. At the window, he showed his credit card, and two tickets were handed out.
Li Du was surprised. "So smart? No password needed? Just scan the credit card and the tickets are issued? "
Hans said, "You're so naive, buddy. Natalie has already booked the tickets online for us. Scanning the credit card is to confirm our identities."
"Natalie? Sophie's best friend? "
"Yes, that's the girl. Her waist is so slim, buddy." Hans looked like he was reminiscing.
Li Du grabbed him and said in a low voice, "F * ck, did you have sex with her? You b * stard, don't do this to me! "
Hans was confused. "Do what to do to you?"
Li Du frowned. "What did you say? What would you do if you and Natalie got tired of each other? Dump her? Then Madeline would tell her to cry to Sophie? "
Hans laughed. "You're such a naive guy. We're not lovers. She knows that. Besides, we didn't do anything. It was just a hug."
Li Du would be surprised if he believed this guy!
A bus pulled up to the station. The conductor shouted, "Phoenix station, Tucson station, Los Angeles station, get ready to board!"
Greyhound used a stagecoach method for transportation. Its routes were usually very long, and the whole journey might pass through several states. For example, this bus went through at least Arizona and California.
However, these long-distance routes were pieced together from short-distance routes. At every important station, the bus would stop and then change the driver.
This had nothing to do with Li Du and the others. They were short-distance travelers, and could take the bus to Phoenix.
Nowadays, Greyhound buses kept up with the times. The buses were brand new, with bright blue paint and a running gray dog on the bus. This was how the bus got its name.
The seats in the car were very comfortable, spacious and soft. There were sockets under the seats, which could be used for electricity. In addition, there was Wi-Fi in the car, which surprised Li Du.
When Hans saw it, he was also very surprised. He asked the conductor, "Even buses now have Wi-Fi installed?"
The ticket seller said, "Yes, sir. Technology has changed our lives. Hmm?"
"Uh-huh!" Hans nodded.
After driving all the way to Phoenix, they took another taxi and drove to the dealership where Hanna had bought the BMW Z4.
Hans had made a phone call in advance. When they arrived at the dealership, a young man in a white shirt and blue tie walked over. "Hi, Big Fox, Li, it's a pleasure to serve you again.
Li Du shook hands with him and said, "Thank you, Carlos. This time, we want to buy a family car."
The last time they bought a Z4, it was Carlos who helped them buy it. He was also the one who followed up on the service, so they could be considered acquaintances.
Hans nudged him with his elbow and said, "Hey, look, there's a celebrity over there."
Li Du hurriedly turned his head to look, but all he saw were rows of cars. There were no celebrities that he was familiar with.
"What celebrity?"
Carlos laughed. "Big Fox is talking about that car, the Chevrolet Antelope. It's the star of the car industry."
Li Du also noticed that car. Compared to the smooth lines of the surrounding cars, the car they were talking about was more rigid, squarish, with thick tires and a wide body.
"This is an old car, right?" he asked. "From the shape of the car, it doesn't look like a modern car."
Carlos nodded. "Yes, this is a full-size sedan introduced by General Chevrolet in 1958. Its name was derived from a South African Impala. Of course, its power is indeed as strong as an Impala."
Li Du said, "It's also very beautiful. This car has been around for more than half a century. Is it still in production?"
The three of them walked over as they talked. When Hans got closer, he immediately took out his phone and took a photo.
Carlos introduced, "No, this model has long been discontinued. In fact, this is not the first generation of Antelope, but the fourth generation."
Hans encouraged, "Buy this car, Li, just buy it. If you drive this car out, you'll definitely look cool. If you go to a nightclub, I bet that the moment you stop the car, a girl will automatically come in and follow you!"
Li Du rolled his eyes. "Sh * t, I don't want to drive this car to a nightclub!"
Hans said, "Alright, even if you don't go to nightclubs, you can still buy this car. But this car is not cheap. You might not be willing to part with it."
Li Du laughed coldly. "Don't try to goad me. It doesn't work on me."
Carlos said, "Mr. Li, this car is indeed quite expensive. In fact, in its era, it was the most expensive Chevrolet passenger car in the United States since 1965. In terms of price, it was much more expensive than the Ford Galaxy 500 and the Plymouth Fury."
Li Du shrugged. "Alright, then I won't be willing to part with it."
Hans spread out his hands. "Don't be like that, buddy. This is a very good muscle car. A man should drive a muscle car, right? You don't like muscle cars? "
Li Du said, "I like muscle cars, but I don't want to drive such an old muscle car. Besides, this is a collector's edition. They might not sell it. "
Carlos smiled slyly and said, "As long as the price is right, all the cars here are for sale. But if you want to buy a modern muscle car, you have a wider range of choices."
He took the two of them for a stroll in the mall and kept introducing the car to them.
"This is the brand new Chevrolet Camaro Z28, produced on the Zeta medium to large rear-drive platform that is shared with the Buick Boulevard. It carries the LS77.0 LOHV large-bore V8 engine from the previous generation Corvette Z06..."
Li Du saw a black car in the whole row of cars.
This car looked very fierce, and was definitely the king of muscle cars. Its logo was a Mustang, and the body was very long, a little longer than the neighboring Land Rover Range Rover. This was very surprising. After all, the Range Rover was a large SUV.
However, the Range Rover was a four-door car, and this black car only had two doors. One could imagine how wide its door was, and how domineering it was!
Seeing that Li Du was paying attention to this car, Hans laughed and said, "Wow, Mustang. Who is this from the Mustang family? It looks very fierce. "
"A shrew. It's called Hellcat!" Carlos laughed.
