Growing up, we had a 68 Ford Country Sedan wagon in seafoam green. Definitely not the best green, but there are way worse ones. My favorite greens are the darker ones. That’s coming from someone mildly red-green color blind. (I have a hard time with olive colors.)

I’m not sure about that Mercury. Do the headlights actually move or are they merely hidden? The Isuzu and Lincoln in the lists aren’t pop-ups.

That would be the right swap, but I’d look into an 2.3 Ecoboost.

The only hard part about wiring these old cars is getting enough variety in wire colors/gauges. That takes care of that.

I’m not sure I’d put it in as a great entry, but I did like it and even more so with additional viewings. My wife, who is not much of a superhero movie fan, also enjoyed it. It’s really not a movie for everyone, but it is a movie for me.

I agree, but still better than a Lexus.

This is one that should have been on this list. I was going to nominate it but no one pays attention to us grays.

Not my thing, but a car worth owning for the right buyer. ASC has a long history with Detroit and you can bet this car was done right. With that said, I think the price is too high. However GM cars from that era tend to get absurd prices and this isn’t out of line. Nice Price.

I tend to vote along the “if I was into it” camp. I still noped. Underlying car value is at best $10k. Similar vintage examples are selling in the $10k-15k range with less than half the miles. Is there $16k of value add here? Not even close.

It was kind of a mess. The original Rolls-Royce car builder’s successor in interest is Bentley Motors Limited division of Volkswagen AG. Vickers owned Rolls-Royce Motors and put it up for sale in 1998. BMW was the expected buyer as then already supplied engines and other parts to RR, but BMW was outbid by VW. VW…

Chris Evans is saying he’s playing Buzz Lightyear the person. It would make more sense to me that this is the movie the Buzz Lightyear toy was based on.

I’ve said that “The Mandalorian” is both singular and plural.

Hardly a reset button. First, I’m certain The Mandalorian is the story of how Din unites and resurrects the Mandalorian culture and possibly becomes the leader. These first couple of seasons introduce the players. Grogu can’t continue the role of “The Child” and help advance the main story. Do you remember Luke’s line…

141k miles, smaller engine, but does have manual. $8500 price is high, but maybe Nice Price in this market.

I’ve been using the orange Rain-X stuff for a decade and almost all my cars have had float style level sensors. I have never had an issue.

Is it a lie when everyone knows you’re lying and you know everyone knows?

It’s a nice price but it definitely isn’t for everyone. Pretty much any car of this age/mileage, not just BMWs, are going to have significant faults. And if you aren’t a DIY kind of person either you’ll drive the car into the ground, or you will run big expenses. Now if you are that DIY person, there is a huge amount…
