So that Tavarish guy is from New Jersey? It's no wonder his bullshizz smells familiar.

I forgot about the fuel pump that needed points. Yeah, points, like an ignition system. It was located behind the driver's seat. Even with the rubber boot, the points would build up a layer of corrosion.
Oh, and let's not forget about the thermal switch located in the radiators to turn on the electric cooling fan. Two…
Obviously, you're not old enough to know that the rubber bumpers are only warning us that the rest of the car is turdly. Sorry.
- The top was a pain in the ass compared to the Alfa-Spider and Fiat 124.
- The carburetor needed it's oil level checked.
- The ride was floaty compared to the Fiat.
- The lever-action dampers…
Turn it into a pickup truck. That removes the Bangle Butt.
But it still has the Bangle Butt. You can't fix that unless you turn it into a pickup truck.
On the other hand, there's enough heat generated by the V12 under the bonnet that moisture accumulation may be the least of your worries.
If that picture of relays on a firewall scares you, then I think you need to consider taking up cupcake baking.
There is no such thing as a "great" car that's ugly.
There are a lot of peculiar choices that the owner made to personalize this car. Check out the seats and the multi-tone interior. This makes one wonder about his other mechanical and engineering choices, that one might say are "questionable," that occurred during the engine installation process.
Big crack pipe.
Odd. I want a new car that doesn't have all that stuff.
I got a buddy a mine who used the fanboy forums to find a mechanic for his BMW 6-series. The highly recommended mechanic turned out to be a charlatan.
If the narrator had a Southern accent, and the background music was Molly Hatchett, you'd have a different opinion on this.
I've heard and read in that newspaper thingy that some businesses will have a "tow zone - parking space for customers only" and if a non-customer parks in it, even for a few minutes, the person sitting, f'rinstance, at the front desk of the tanning salon across the street, will then call the tow company. The caller…
But that was like the Ford Probe, which was built in Flat Rock, MI on the same assembly line as the Mazda 6. So it's not really that far off.
So they took a Fiat, then Chrysler re-engineered it to look like a Jeep, and it's going to be built in Italy? What could possibly go wrong?
I think that if I owned a VW dealership, I'd want to drive something that has more panache and space in it than a full-boat Passat. I think that if I was an executive at VW, or at one of VW's vendors, I'd want something with more panache in it that a full-boat Passat.
Let's not forget the Chinese market, where the…
You can't determine the Phaeton to be a "success" or "failure" based on it's performance in the US market.
Those work pretty well, too.
Crack pipe. To me, this is really a "parts car." I think the $15,000 asking price is way high for a parts car, although the sum of its parts are close enough to being a runner. I don't know if I should laugh at the seller for possibly creating this albatross, or feel sorry for him for being to foolish to recognize the…
