The higher price is one of the symptoms of a horrible condition known as Hoosier Syndrome... Somehow, defying all logic and reasoning, Hoosiers think that just because their meth addled maga hands touched something it is instantly worth more than its original price. Used cars are no exception. Check out Indiana…

Even with the rear rust I’d have to agree that it’s NP. These puppies go on and on and on... And manual. Swoon. 

So... that’s my car. Sold it about two years ago. I daily drove it for about two years prior to that, but didn’t have anywhere to store it when I went to a newer car.

Second trip around would be 1.1 million miles. This is absolutely one of those fun “slow car driven fast” type of vehicles. Not many options these days for the 225/60R14's, but that’s a LOT of bite for a light car.

Gotcha. I don’t know these vehicles all too well, so that makes sense. But 2.5 hours to do 6 injectors? I’d still take the time to replace them in the sellers driveway lol an even bigger fuck you

The livery on James Hunt’s F1 car persuaded me to try sex.

Wife and I were looking for cheap champagne for a tailgate that wasn’t Andre once. I told her to get the Martini and Rossi, because they are a classic motor sports sponsor.

Only once has a sponsorship influenced my behavior, but it likely wasn’t the effect they had in mind.

I’m in aviation and I love that series.. though it feels a little morbid. In many of the big jets flying around today there are many of those [big] yellow lights to tell pilots “things are weird, take a look”. Only rarely does shit happen all at once and the pilots go from fat/dumb/happy to fighting for survival in…

So, airplanes actually are doing this increasingly - things like detecting when different sensors disagree (because they have redundant sensors) are common. (Except for the 737 MAX, where it was an option to have that software enabled. That’s changed now.)

This.

This is becoming as useful as Bug’s Florida gif.

honestly, it’s no different that star athletes.  there’s no shortage of people who would defend their team’s QB to the death.  Elon is just the “geek” Tom Brady. 

Some people sure don’t like listening to an opposing opinion based on facts and knowledge.

Pierburg is a German parts company that is over 100 years old. They’re owned by Rheinmetall Automotive now but they remain an OEM for many European automotive companies.

I was leaning NP, but I got hung up on the injector. If the owner spent the minutes necessary to swap the injector which he already purchased, then confirmed all 6 cylinders worked, $2k ain’t bad. He had multiple mechanics look at it but none of them could help out with this no-brainer job? Since that didn’t happen,…

“Replace the injector in his driveway,” you got a star for that.  Don’t even say a word, just shove it in.  It takes what, two tools?

This is the right take. Flip it in a week and never even put the title in your name. Only things I would do different is get him down to $1000-1250, and then replace the injector in his driveway right in front of him just as a fuck you for letting the car get like that

I’m conflicted.
