And further, if the light’s there and then it blinks several times before going off, someone reset the check-engine codes recently. Something else is going on; stay away!

This is why I take my OBDII scanner on every test drive. I have actually had a sales person tell me that I can do that. I laughed in his face and walked. His manager came running after me and I told them to “make love to themselves”

I have handled a case like this. Someone took a Sharpie (or equivalent) and blacked out a check engine light. Client bought from a dealer and the dealer claimed ignorance (which is always their Plan A). We won.

Came here to say this. You should see your check engine light every single time you turn the ignition from off to on. If you’re a VR6 owner you may see it far more often, like my avatar.

Steve Lehto would have a fucking field day with these idiots.

My commute is 3 minutes by bicycle or six by car. I do it four times a day, since I go home for lunch.

I feel blessed every day our accountant comes in and bitches about her 45 minute commute.

177 mph for under $10k seems pretty reasonable. Especially when it comes with an extra engine, wheels and other parts. It still looks pretty decent externally too. NP if your looking for a hobby car instead of a commuter.

Yea, and while it’s a neat car, it’s still the fast version of an econo box. I wouldn’t add a dollar to the value of a geo metro that held the “smallest car to go sort of fast” record either.

Nail, meet hammer. Couldn’t have said it better myself. CP all day, if you’re a common-sense common man.

Pull forward, up the hill, from the right-front. Basically nothing bad could happen from there unless the strap broke. Judging by these folks’ apparent level of experience, they still could’ve blown that one with a shitty strap or connection to the Jeep.

Someone skipped lug nut day.

I hope they named the kid TappenZee. Or maybe Scrappy.

Call me square, but all I can think about is how desirable this thing would have been as a bone stock ‘72 911.

LAPD charged with battery.

The way I do it is to attach a bumper sticker to my car that says

Be a girl, you can get away with any sports car you want and nobody thinks you’re an asshole! The worst you get is assumptions it’s your husband or boyfriends or they bought it for you. Personally, I went with a C3 Corvette and my husband’s name is nowhere on the papers. And you can too put a dog in it, Elise came…

Old people are going to love autonomous cars. And the rest of us will love that. I predict that if the public is confident in the product functionality, it will sell like mad.

this may not have been designed for the beach per se, but it is well worth the extra effort getting it from the car to your beach nest:

And due to his scooter being damaged, he didn’t make it to work.
