It looks like a less graceful Panoz in the video, but still better than these awkward tanks looked in the metal at Laguna Seca a few weeks ago. They're hideous, not to mention too huge for use on this planet.

@alfasud: How much would it bother you to know that there are people who don't have any reasons to curse their own children?
Perhaps I'm wrong in my recollection, but I could swear it was Verdegrrl who once took exception to my opinions about Alfa Milanos in a LeMons thread. This certainly doesn't sound like the account of someone who owns a product of quality engineering.
@ZeroOrDie: In reality, it could have been a dyslexic's typo. People who've driven the Volt have seen as little as 32 mpg.
So every single 335 owner that I know isn't an exception after all.
@jalopnikfan: It sure looks like it. Maybe it was stolen years ago, stripped, and abandoned. I'm not familiar with the location though. Has anyone said where this was taken?
@OntologicalTraction: This should have been the COTD. Gay took on a bad connotation because of its use to describe homosexual men anyway. If anyone should be offended, it should be the happy people we had in the '50s. Gay had no pejorative qualities until it was used to describe homosexuals. The problem isn't the…
Doesn't anyone else care that GM's savior comes in the form of another $7,500 PER CAR subsidy from their cronies in Washington DC, not mention another $5,000 from the space aliens in Sacramento when it is sold in the People's Republic of Kalifornia? This car can have as short an electric range as imaginable. It can…
Brett Berk is a frustrated little bitch, isn't he. Gay.
I don't get what the bitching is about. They're selling it as a Scion to prevent gouging at the dealer level. If that really works, this is good news. Is Scion styling really any more boring than Toyota styling? Does a 2 liter engine cost any less than a 2.5 liter engine in the US? We don't have displacement taxation…
"The high-point of that event was when a young E92 BMW M3 owner, with hair and persona resembling that which we also call a quill, stopped by and enquired as to how I was at a BMW event with a Honda"
I worked at a Honda dealer during the summer of 1989. The Prelude was essentially already over as a significant seller. It was the only Honda of the day that needed incentives to sell, although the incentive was an unadvertised dealer rebate. There were still more generations of Prelude to come, but they never again…
I have an old issue of Autocar magazine where they did a group test of four 1.8 liter repmobiles, circa 1984. The Vauxhall Cavalier 1.8 CD was the easy winner and the Saab 900 finished a distant dead last. Other than the big trunk, all Saab advantages are imagined. Quality interior? How did you fix the headliner?
@mykie: Back when Cushman trikes only had one door, you could rush up and knock revenazis over on the doorside and trap them.
@FromaBuick6: Now with more 5.0: You'd think that midwestern cold starts would put more wear on engines than life in the south. I wonder what is creating the oil burners. I ride my bike up Mount Soledad almost every day, and I'm aware every time a vehicle passes me that isn't in tune. The emissions sear my lungs at…
@KeyserSöze: Building a car that runs on unicorn farts is the easy part.
It seems cruel to sell some dumb bastard an electric car and then give them a week of access to a real car. It's like lettting a Rwandan spend one week in a suite at the Biltmore in Palm Beach and then dropping them back in the concentration camp.
@FromaBuick6: Now with more 5.0: That makes me worry about my paint, because I regularly do the drivethrough robotic wash and wax thing when I buy gas. I live at the beach, and you can really tell the cars that aren't regularly waxed here. Pink BMWs and bare metal Nissans are the norm in my neighborhood.
Can you buy the car with Gran Turismo dollars?
