As always, the swedes are not impressed...

Salesman - "So, Mr. Lennon, wow, it's smoky in here. *COUGH*, Ahem, do you like the ride on this wagon? What color would prefer?"

@bradyb: Nuburgring in 8:22.85, say what you will, for what it was, it went like stink, stopped and turned properly. Find a cheaper car with a 100k powertrain warranty to put down that ring time. Not a GREAT car, but I respect it for the value it was. I'd pimp a 4 door wingless variant.

Yummeh.

The Bigfoot Fastraxx Aerotank! Always made me go WOAH, but when I was 7 it didn't take much.

It would have been close, but a 98 vintage viper, and a FFR cobra clone with a yates-headed aluminum cleveland stroker in the 750 horse neighborhood. The viper, I might have had the balls to top out. By the top of third in the FFR, I had enough.

Farah, Foust, Carolla. What TGUSA should have had to begin with.

@LandofMinos. So stupid, he makes the Seppos look like a computer.: I love SSP Mustangs doing the same thing!

Mother Earth news, the 70's hippie greenie magazine of choice, used to have ads for them all over the place. Hippie reduction program designed by the CIA, I'm sure. Came with a free bag of "specialshrooms" to enjoy while splitting. #pickuptrucks

Funny I was driving a Black Charger R/T yesterday in lieu of my 4 banger Saturn DD, and when I got home I couldn't help but notice all the extra hair on my chest and blood spatter I couldn't account for. #fastcars

Pussy. My last mustang had a cable clutch that my wife couldn't push in with two feet to get it out of gear to push into the garage, a shifter 2.6" tall, and a proshifted Tremec, no PS or PB. Yes it went on the street. Shifted like a 1930's diesel tractor unless you had it to the floor cramming gears without the…

Remember folks, he gunned down "GNX" but not "Grand National". I forsee a CS, CX (up option), CXS (AWD top opt), CXT (AWD Turbo) and maybe a Grand National blackout appearance package for the turbo car. Or GM could just let the boutique tuners do it for them with the hotrod Insignia bits, but hell, theyve already got…

After that I would pick up a night shift at the slaughterhouse for giggles and the next F-150 would have to be King Ranch Leather-to-the-hilt, leather carriage roof, leather tonneau, and matching wardrobe. Eff the bovines.

I'd give a left teste to look half as "Damn what you think about me" cool as that guy.

Everyone knows...

Less obvious, my favorite would be the muscle car era rivalries between competing dealership "speed shops", notably-

Obvious answer..

Maybe not oddest, but most brilliant and possible game-changer. Crower 6 stroke steam/diesel. This is the future of generators, locomotives, heavy equipment and semis.

Made of strong blue webbing... Good, because I hear the insurance companies had a fit about the weak green webbing on the prototype.
