Z4, baby!

1972 Chrysler Town & Country Station Wagon with a 440 Hemi. My family had one, and to a seven year old kid, the thing was as long as a battleship.

The MGC. Great idea - six cylinder power in a B body. Alas, it was rushed to market without the necessary suspension mods and ultimately killed by BMC turf wars.

Plymouth Prowler. Hot rod looks, V6 lump.

No, just valve adjustments. You have to keep an eye on the VANOS, though.

Oh, and the rod bearings.

Z4M Coupes (E86), especially in Interlagos Blue

OK, here goes:

"Idiot Rally Spectators" almost sounds redundant.

The one big point is that the dealership companies themselves (and their wealthy, caviar-swilling owners) do pay a lot in taxes that, at least in part, goes directly to the local area for schools, city services, county-wide pizza parties, whatever. That is an important point, and if the automakers own everything, that…
