I feel like an extremely obvious solution to all these problems is being overlooked. Traffic? Difficult parking? Size of vehicle? Especially validation: what are they going to do, boot you?

That's what the people talking about V-8 swaps are missing: this is a great daily driver pony. A bit too pricey, but not unimaginably so. The auto would be more of a deal-breaker if it weren't a *good* auto, but were it mine I wouldn't have used the modern shifter. Doesn't look quite right.

It wouldn't matter if it was the PS3 Pininfarina edition. Then it wouldn't be about how much you use it, but how great it looks.

Electricalism is a religion that doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving, unless it's Reformed Electricalism.

Well, an Impala also technically meets the requirements for making a shofar, apparently.

If the Israelites had been able to drive around Jericho 3 times well in excess of the speed limit, it wouldn't have taken all day.. Not sure about the car horn/shofar comparison, though. Might need a Benz 600 for volume.

Quebec is the Francophonic Florida of Canada.

Well, regardless of the lag induced by the huge wheels, it'll get up to and hold an incredible speed; and the iridescent beetle-on-crack appearance means the cops will just go blind.

Yeah, considering that the windshield washer bottle was designed to hang crooked in such a way that it wouldn't spill on the trains and would slump back into position once the car went level again, your instincts on GM's honeybadgerness where fluids are concerned were spot on.

NP. Despite the fact that it's a bit beat up, this is Grand Marquis kind of money, and the goodies more than offset the roughness and the miles. Particularly with the inflated demand for P71s from Hollywood and the taxi industry driving prices up.

The '79, while not an epic 4-door, is adequately bargey for my bloated tastes. Giant box: required. Also Cartier.

The wagon version of this looks exceptionally gooney, because it uses the tapered rear doors and other pieces from this and bulges outward kind of like the contemporary "fishbowl" Taurus wagon.

So would you say he muffed up the landing?

Well, I mean, even Johnny Cash had to sneak out his engine in his buddy's mobile home. If only he could have lived to the day of an *engine* small enough to fit in that big ol' lunchbox.

This is a great idea and you are a scholar and a gentleman for suggesting it.

I'm almost positive "28 Women crammed into a Mini" is someone's very specific fetish. Outside that, is it natural to adduce that if one loses enough weight and owns a Mini, one would be able to convince over 20 women to get in it with him?

Depends on the definition of "trust". If trust means "truly don't think you'll leave the track" then likely no. Trust meaning "Would likely destroy, but never have this chance again, so YOLO", yes.

The only one of those I recall using outside Altavista/Excite is KLI. Which, in fairness, I didn't access until probably 2000ish. Homestarrunner is still alive in a mostly unaltered form, of course, though being only about a decade old and built in flash it doesn't have the clunkiness of most of these.

Were AMC still around and making Levi's editions of cars, I'd say that. Because Jeans-patterned vinyl is ridiculously priced at any price.

Well played indeed.
