well, yes. My point exactly. Cars today must run 100K miles+ with zero attention or be branded a POS. Yet so many people complain about “all that electronic shit”.

The Omni doesn’t make sense. “never stranded me” = reliable.
Agreed. These are the people who buy books as decoration and must be stopped.
Our neighborhood is a historic district and has somehow convinced the city that golf carts are legal within its boundaries. I’d actually consider buying one these little roller skates as it would actually be very useful here. Plus, I’ve always wanted a Citroen!
How is it that I had no idea this “DBX” existed until now? And now I can not unlearn its existence. Sad.
Of all time? Probably the 1960 DeSoto taillights. After the tortured excess of 1957-1959, Exner delivered a simple, elegant arc of red plastic that filled the space left of perhaps his most graceful of fins.
I nominate the Dodge Daytona Turbo Z/Chrysler Laser XT. Why? Because, turbo was the word of the 80s. Plus they are K cars under the skin (albeit tucked and tightened K cars) like all the pretentions of the 80s.
So tell me where your shop is, and if it’s anywhere Toledo, Ohio, you’ve got a customer for life.
There’s another, much sadder reason to upgrade braking systems: if you ever want a mechanic to work on them.
If you’re trying for a rebuttal name, try “Smallpox Blanket” and “Syphilis”
I’m literally in the market for this car, so it’s hilarious to read all the curt dismissals. Not sure if they’re just anti-Chrysler or weren’t alive in the 80s but these were groundbreaking at the time. As a high school junior when this was built, I would have been thrilled to be given this for graduation.…
Yeah, the Trump-loving-gays are a mystery to the rest of us. Just goes to show you that gay folk come in all shapes, sizes, ages, races, incomes, religions, and of course - neural capacity.
I’m no Chrysler fanboy, but the headline forecasting doom isn’t in sync with the comments from Stellantis’ CEO calling Chrysler a “historical pillar” of the company.
Honestly, when I read “Daimler”, I tend to think of a fancier Jaguar.
I like the look in print and in digital. In person, no.
Mark Cross leather interior, in surprisingly good shape (which is great as there is no replacement kit on the market). Electronic dash is cool, if it works. Not too hard to source a replacement but getting scarce. Turbo motor is easy to work on and fun to hear spool up (as God intended).
No cup holder armrest.
I had a 1963 Ghia with the original 40 horse motor. It kept up with San Diego traffic for the most part, but getting up to speed on the 5 could be a little scary.
I believe that’s due to no computer plug in to diagnose the problem(s). I was turned away from SO MANY shops because the car I could have fixed was too old and decrepit to want to, had no OBD2 port.
I saw a real live Bronco eastbound on the 94 headed toward Detroit yesterday. The proportions just don’t look right. Have I just seen too many Wranglers?
