Very sweet condition. Back when I was a sprog down under, a friend of mine had one of these, the top of the range crown and I have coveted it ever since. Sadly, I think most of these are probably 224th generation coke cans now but I remember riding in my friends crown and feeling that I had gone back to the womb. It

Definitely this 79 Lincoln Continental Collectors Series. 0-60 in "why the hell would you want to go 60, the speed limit is 55?" So long it doesnt fit in a standard garage, so wide its a nightmare to park. Driving it is like riding a horse in that you always realize that youre not actually in control of the beast.

The next mod is a ticket dispenser. The longer the drift, the more tickets come out. Save them up and trade them in for a prize!

Runs on garbage, nuclear powered and flies. Pretty futuristic in 1985.

Guy in blue jacket is an idiot. Everyone knows that you have to use both hands to push back a jet.

Holy crap I made something similar and more nerdy! It's the Ultimate Car Buying Matrix and it includes things like RWD/AWD/FWD, top speed, 0-60, figure 8 times, lateral acceleration times, and of course power and torque. Check it out!

Pretty much every car is slower doing 5-60 than it is from 0-60. This is because when accelerating from a stop, you can dump the clutch at high RPMs (or brake torque the car to high RPMs if it is an automatic). When you accelerate from 5-60, you have no choice but to accelerate from low RPMs because the car is already

oh, I'm dead serious.

Next stop-Pikes Peak.

Kind of looks like Sriracha to me...

I live my life a quarter acre at a time. sUbUrB1a 4eva!!

Guys, this is Switzer, so please realize this car is exactly one extremely rich Russian away from being built.

Wait, what's with the owls?

man, I need to review some tractors for Jalopnik

Those aren't studded tires, they're bracelets for a goth elephant.

From before the CUV was a thing, came the SX/4; too soon Eagle...

Agree, the X6M is the only good X6 because it is insane.
Kill the base X6, not the M.

That manual winch thing in the ice is the most brilliant thing I've seen in while. I was not expecting that.

Is it bad that I really like that paint job?

That's a new angle on driving. Though I'm sure he's had varying degrees of success.
