Sure enough, he fell back in Stage 1B today because he got lost and missed a checkpoint...

Put a pull start on it, it would be perfect for a leaf blower. Nice and screamy, like a leaf blower should be.

I really try to understand your perspective, Orlove. I really do. I know I could just not read your posts, but they kinda fascinate me with the crazy. That being said:

I find the beard to be the most disturbing part of all this.

I grew up near a tiny marina. My sister and I would walk to it during the summer and hang out. There was an ancient woman in the area that had a giant boat in the front yard that we walked by to the marine. The Boat looked exactly like the Minnow (picture below), including the giant hole.

Even with all that I don’t think it rates more than a three, three point five at most, on the Tracy rustbucket scale.

You own 24 4x4 Jeeps, and you picked a 1960's RWD Valiant as a winter car.  Only you David, only you. 

My car has a device known as a “Rear Main Seal” that coats the undercarriage with a rust proofing substance while I’m driving.

This... seems like a bad, needlessly dismissive take.

Way too good to be true. Sending this “seller” $35k, or any “down payment” would be foolish. Any amount of money for nothing is No Dice.

I am in the same boat. This thing looks rad and it’s naturally aspirated. That’s awesome. I would be even more excited if they removed one more hi-tech item from the car, namely the automatic transmission.

This is the correct take. Ferrari has a guaranteed profit on these since their customers will pay whatever the cost is, and they get to try out different styling exercises and get tons of publicity as a result. This car is for Ferrari. 

My understanding is that any limited edition Ferrari basically gets sold to a club of very wealthy people with multiple Ferraris who get first dibs.

Spoken like someone who has no idea why people like muscle cars, or sports cars.

Yes the GSR had 170HP, but it also only had 117 lb⋅ft. The 1.5 t as configured in the current Civic can get it to 60 in around 7.5 seconds, and that’s with a CVT. So that engine in the base Integra which will be available with a manual and an auto that is most likely not going to be a CVT, should be fine.

There isn’t much to explain the bike’s $10,000 price premium over the standard S

Purists didn’t like the Porsche Cayenne too, but that model was so popular it basically saved the company and allowed them to continue making the 911.

I love Ferrari, I hate SUV’s, but let’s not kid ourselves: if tall cars with stupid names and weirdly impractical design were the thing back when Enzo was alive, he’d be building and selling them in order to go racing. That’s all that mattered to him. “Purists” don’t like that.
