This was a great read! While I don't own a ferrari, I can agree on so many points. I have a Genesis Coupe which in colorado is about as rare in colorado as an honest politician in washington. But its not the attention I hate (it doesn't get *that* much), its the fact that you have to be on your A game at all times…
I stopped at the nats event on the way from detroit (flew to detroit, bought a car, driving back to denver). I watched the RX nats for about an hour and mingled with some. The beetle was fun to watch! Just before the detroit trip I picked up an E30 for $1200 and have been getting it mechanically reliable for the…
I love when people "racing" or driving all out in a car in movies, downshift to go faster. If I was driving the snot out of my car (already) and downshifted, I'd be picking up a half mile of pieces of my transmission and motor. Sometimes in movies they push down on the accelerator more. Like yes, everyone is racing as…
I've got this on the back of my genesis coupe. It's on ebay for $5. Just search family sticker money
Immediately after, I sent an email offering 22500 certified and out the door, they came back at 22,620. Bam. Signed sealed and delivered (ok, I'm actually flying out to retrieve it...) Thanks Tom! Love your articles, I learn something each time.
Thanks for the advice! I've gotten a few really great deals in my life, maybe karma is catching up and I'm going to have to pay more for this one.
Tom,
Superchargers are the best kind of chargers.
I've been trying. Like heck I've been trying. There's only 5 cars in the us that match what I'm looking for, and wheelin' & dealin' across state lines is tough. So if you have a white 2012 regal gs with a manual, nav, sunroof, factory 20's, under 30k miles, and certified pre-owned that you're looking to sell, you let…
I don't get it... Ultimate bro truck stays on the road... I have a feeling they could have found a nicer lifted toyota than that. Also, the headsets? Also, also, that blazer is awesome. Looks freakin' sweet and offroad suspension done right.
There's an immaculate rust free one that's been for sale in Colorado for sometime. This dealer is a very small outfit that only sells volvos. If I had the space for the car, it would have been mine a long time ago: http://denver.craigslist.org/ctd/4604967824…
All that work and then you toss in an automatic with single handedly the ugliest, most unmiata shift knob ever. Not to mention the black side strips, awful wheel/tire/suspension combo that makes it look like a jacked up 4x4. If you have that poor of taste for visuals, I question your judgement on how you built the…
Why are all the pictures from the passenger side, and then, out of nowhere a big red driver side front fender in the engine picture? Super rare, hardly used but once in a wreck?
After spending the last two years trying to get my account to work on jalopnik, I'd love to be considered a great commenter instead of being relegated to the newbie-bin. Still trying for an AOTD :) Honestly I'm happy about the change as a casual reader during office breaks, those images were the last thing I needed to…
The problem with the statement you just made is this...
"The manufacturer poured decades worth of knowledge and millions of dollars worth of resources and infrastructure into a product that meets or exceeds their quality and performance demands" and then compromised where they could given profit margins and customer…
Counterpoint: Bought my miata for $2700, built it up for autocross (e stock), put three seasons of daily driving (including winter driving, best snow car ever) and 2 seasons of autocross (2 driver car), sold it for $4200. Parts added: new soft top, front sway bar, catback, magnecor plug wires, silicone radiator hoses,…
Arguing with someone who's got a vitriolic hatred of the president is as effective as teaching a baby how to tune a carburetor and I know well enough to not get into semantics arguments on gawker, because everyone here is a walking dictionary. I stand by what I said.
