Well, crap. This is what I get for not reading daily. I just now saw this...

I’m 40 now, was 25-26 then. I was thoroughly excited about the PT Cruiser, starting when I first saw the Pronto Cruiser concept. I walked into my local dealership ready to put down a deposit on one, and began talking to the salesman. When I insisted I wanted to order one with a manual transmission, he kept telling me

The last time I was at the Museum (would’ve been 2007), the XB-70 was in the hangar annex. The only way you could see it is if you went on the Air Force One and Experimental bus tour...but it was most definitely inside. Out of all the times I’ve been there, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it outside (except for the above

We really wanted to lease our Accord from the dealer less than a mile away, but ended up going to the one 45 minutes away.

I love it. I think $7250 is a little high, but if it was nearby I’d snap it up in a minute. Is it fast? No. Does it handle well? No. Is it attractive? For most, no (for me, very much yes). For what it is, it is perfect and awesome. Subsequent NP from me.

I’m not the other driver...I’m the bald guy who shook hands with you in the garage and we talked briefly while you were working on your laptop.

I enjoyed meeting you yesterday.

Sumbitch...guess I’ll hang out and root for the Plymouth Sundance then...

You all still at the track? I just arrived a few minutes ago, and just now saw that you were out.

If this isn’t COTD material, I don’t know what is.

I took the HPDE class in 1998 at the track when Brian Till was an instructor. We were driving Civics at the time, and it was a load of fun. When I took it, they broke the class up into I think 4 groups. There was a theory class, a skidpad class (where we drove the car around a cone course with a trolley that lifted

I know I’m way late to the discussion...

That’s a Bede BD-5, which is what Michael led the question off with on Tuesday. Typically, they don’t include the lead-off example in the answers of the day.

We got a great deal on a 2015 Accord EX in July, and I love it so far. Yeah, yeah....CVT....but it’s still a great car. When I want to row my own, I’ve got a 5-spd in the truck.

We test drove the 2015 Mazda 6, and I really loved the way it handled. The problem was that the dealership we went to was screwing with us on the price. They wanted higher monthly payments for a 3 than other dealerships wanted for their mid-size offerings, and the 6 was well above that yet. The sales manager just kept
