**The D List: A Look at Used Car Prices**

The world of used cars has become increasingly unpredictable, and it's not uncommon for people to pay top dollar for a vehicle that seems like a steal. In this episode of The D List, James and Jeremiah are putting the prices of old cars to the test.

"We're a couple of guys who've bought one or two old cars," James explains, "and we found a bunch of used cars on the internet." Today, they're going to try and guess how much people actually paid for these cars. The rules are simple: if you go over, you're out.

James and Jeremiah start with a 1992 Arcadia green Honda Accord, which has five speeds and only 40,000 miles. James is convinced that this car costs more now than it did when he was in high school. "When it rolled off the lot," he says, "I can smell this car." He guarantees that the car is clean and guesses a price of $16,000.

Jeremiah disagrees, thinking that the car will sell for around $20 grand. James takes Jeremiah's advice, saying $20 grand, but is surprised to find out that the actual price was $21,000. "What? I believe it," he says. "I'm not shocked at all."

The next car they look at is a Hyundai Elantra N, which has an all-new design and features like N mode and a 10.25-inch touchscreen. James can't get over how alive the car makes him feel after not feeling that way in over 40 years.

"This baby does fly," he says, "This is Hyundai's new breed of high-performance sedan." He loves the customizable drive modes and exhaust modes, but admits that he knows some nice neighborhoods might be disturbed by the car's loud noise. The Elantra N also comes with an option for a six-speed rev-matching manual transmission.

The guys are excited to dig in and start guessing prices. They talk about their favorite features of the cars and share their enthusiasm for driving. As they wrap up the episode, James thanks Hyundai for sponsoring their show and invites viewers to tune in next time when he'll be behind the wheel of a car that's definitely not a neighborhood disturbance.

"I'm excited," James says as the video comes to an end. "Let's dig in."
