Seriously, in Montana if it has 4wd and can be coaxed to move under its own power it sells around 2k minimum. These trucks are still hovering around the 4-5k range here. Heck, a few years ago I sold a Dakota regular cab short box V6 on a salvage title for 3k and felt like I came down to easily.

So your saying teenage sex on seats that cant easily be cleaned and sanitized is better than other bodily fluids on an interior that can? Even if thats the case I just google rear seats 2012 caprice and came up with options under $300. In my area police cruisers are well maintained so it looks like a car built for…

In my neck of the woods Police cars are pretty well maintained. I would rather have a car thats had good service and hard use than something that has had easy use and little to no service that you might get with a typical used car.

This is a cool build, its just done to shoddy for the price. I like the looks and since they got rid of the MG British drivetrain it could have some degree of reliability. I think at $4,500 it would be priced right.

In Montana around Livingston this isn’t uncommon in the winter. The gusts blow over Semis and close the freeway. I remember one time on that stretch of road I was driving flat out at about 50mph with tons of windnoise and my car trying to go all over the place. If there is snow and ice in wind like this its even…

Couldn’t make it past him caressing the car with his gloves on. What a tool.

The premise just doesnt hold up. If you were to put Valiant fenders on this cheap car, why note say Gran Fury? The car is RWD on the show and size wise doesn’t match the proportions or the sounds the car makes. If there was a car that Chrysler Corp wanted to unload in the 80s it was the M Bodies as the K platform…

Honestly I think this or a Gran Fury. The body looks more Gran Fury and the front clip more Volare. Its RWD and makes V8 sounds and the Gran Fury was the only Plymouth at that time that makes those sounds.

Also why is the interior that gutted on the car they are giving people rides in? I understand things dont always come together quickly, but even a few days in a upholstery shop might have been beneficial. The prototypes might be at the stage where they can be test mules but they seem a little rougher around the…

It looks like it has race seats bolted in. Its odd. I dont imagine they would be production pieces. Im guessing if they are legit and this is actually happening they felt they had to get something out in front of people to show it and rushed the prototypes out.

I keep going back and forth on this but it sounds like the driver lost it on the gear change. I guess those fancy dual clutch transmissions aren’t so easy to drive if you treat the throttle pedal like an on off switch.

Looking through the add and why on earth would you take a picture of the transmission mount if it looked like that. The part that is channel looks ok, but the ends appear to just be straps with a bolt through them. If that is any indication of the fabrication on the rest of this, I will say crackpipe at any price…

Their presentation was pretty impressive once they got to the part about the actual car nearly an hour in. Its just comes off as that Silicon Valley we can change the world and do everything better and there really isn’t a whole lot of substance to them being a viable company at the moment. Part of me is pulling for…

The theme for today seems to be car companies killed by their bigger parent companies. I do miss Plymouth, I suppose the upside is it didnt live to see the current state of Chrysler.

When you are a risk adverse company and you create a brand to take chances if you dont bring in new people to execute the chances, your same tendencies are going to come through as products get developed. They introduced an edgy youth brand against the SRT4, WRX and Civic that had nothing really to offer the youth…

I want to get my MGB into the running for Fast time of Day at the local auto-crosses so I’m saving for a Limited slip differential, putting way bigger tires on it and going to do a lot of chassis tuning. If the Lotus 7 replica doesn’t show up on day I might have a chance. I also plan get my 40 ford running right, a…

I’m not so sure that Chevy electric vehicles sell as poorly as people seem to think. The sales info I can see shows the Volt 2nd through July and the Spark electric within the top 10. Considering GM doesn’t seem to really be advertising them significantly they dont seem to be doing as poorly as everyone says. On GM…

If the X is any indication it will also that build quality on par with a 90s British car.

I think its all about perspective. I remember buying a house last spring, negotiation with a seller, getting money transferred and finding out at closing the tax estimate the seller included in closing wasn’t accurate. My wife and I were pretty stressed as things went wrong, money not transferring on time when the…

Honestly they both cheated on the budget. Do you think that accounting for the standalone engine management and engine swap in a WRX you could replicate the results? Roadkill brought a gun to a knife fight and built the ultimate characture of the “American Car”.
