As a gen X’r I want this:

Never go to chain repair locations reason 4,590,834. Eon’s ago I bring Mom’s Volvo 245 Wagon in for new rear muffler (they were notorious for rotting) and they have the car on the lift and wheels off.

There is a reason Sears Auto is no longer and this is just one of the reasons:

I think over time the definition of resto mod has morphed. I always thought a resto mod was taking an old car (Mustang) and restoring it with the idea of upgrading items that while true to the original are a good/reasonable upgrade such as brakes, suspension components, maybe go to fuel injection or just outright…

I believe that under the current gov, there were thousands of well permits opened and never used all the while our production has increased so as usual the drill baby drill, its more scare mongering.

Get yourself a used S6.  Depreciated versions will be in your budget and I don’t ever hear of them getting stollen.  Besides, Jalop just recently endorsed the whole idea. https://jalopnik.com/the-time-for-reason-has-ended-buy-a-heavily-depreciate-1851693357

My fix: Since Monaco is on there for Historic reasons, lets embrace that ethos and remove the wings. Make them look like the torpedoes from the 60's by just deleting the front wing and rear wing and all of a sudden mostly only mechanical grip. Might spice it up and maybe everyone has to come out with nostalgic livery…

zactly!

interesting point.  This is a lot of mental energy to spend on this kind of devotion and idolization.

Not lifted enough, too clean & you actually ride bicycles.

I missed the original polling, but I offer you up a threesome owned by the same deranged person. Sorta hits a couple of the demographics but who’d a thought a Porsche owner?

Amazed to see the bed of the pickup survived and acted like a giant can opener to the side of the box truck.

I would agree on that.  My only lean into Audi’s is like the AWD aspect and while I used to like most things BMW, the more recent gen and designs leave me a bit meh.

These Audi’s are not meant to be lithe and nimble per se’, they are meant to haul ass in all sorts of conditions while being supremely comfortable/capable. M5 series BMW’s to me, were more the open shirted, hairy chested and medallion wearing uncle to the normal sedans. For example, I liken my S5 to a Mustang GT in…

This is the epitome of a Q ship. It could cruise all day at ludicrous speeds and not attract too much attention.

no doubt, just wondering what the over/under costs of that would be. Could be she’s sitting higher than originally because she’s no longer fitted out and riding higher. I would think maybe pumping water into her to add ballast to lower her could be cheaper too if they hadn’t done that

I’m going to assume they have to wait to low tide to allow the smoke stacks to clear the bridges, but since its being sent to a watery grave, I wonder if it would have been cheaper to lop them off rather than spend money on closing the bridges.

If FIA doesn’t want to hear the swearing then lets stop broadcasting the in car radio chatter. I know the example would be putting a mike on say soccer or football players and boy would that be blue right? So lets not mike them up at that time.  I personally like hearing the banter as I’m sure most of the world does,…

It’s certainly an unintended circumstance of the multipurpose nature of the tracks to need this duality.  Maybe its revisiting the layouts for the race to be able to modify the track without affecting the other type of racing.

totally agree!
