I had long wanted one. They cause a full 180 degree neck break every time I see them on the street. Three years ago when deciding on my last car I passed on the idea in favor of practicality, but now tragic circumstances and a fair bit of luck have brought us together. I picked the option not suggested by Jalopnik…

One of the many reasons I live in a non-HOA neighborhood. I ripped about 2/3rds of the grass out and xeriscaped that sucker cause there was nobody to say I couldn’t and I am allergic as hell to grass. Plus my life is interesting enough that I simply don’t have the time or energy to care. My neighbors have a perfectly…

We have an agreement in our family to buy a relative’s house in a few years. Partly to get our kid into a better school district, but also because it has a 3 car garage

This is why I have t-tops. The t-top owner can not move their roof with the flick of a switch or press of a button. We must stop, get out, remove the top, and put it in the back. Reverse order is worse cause it’s likely in the rain. That is if you even brought your tops. To leave home without them requires faith in…

My husband and I knew we needed AT LEAST a 2 car garage. But more importantly, we needed a home that wasn’t in an HOA. This is because we already knew we would have 3 cars minimum and there weren’t any 3 car garage homes in our price range. So somebody always has to be outside. Our home needed to have some sort of…

If I were importing something, I’d get a Trabant and put some flavor of sportbike engine in it.

I had a wild idea born of norco and it being 1am a couple days after the crash to transplant my Abarth’s guts into an X1/9, but I suspect that would be very pricey

And painfully expensive

I had a wild idea at one point a day or two after the crash born of norco and it being 1 am to put my Abarth’s guts into an X1/9

I can’t really explain why I’m against the usual suspects, I just am. I’m not out there to win necessarily, I’m out there to have a blast. I always buy cars entirely with my heart, no brains whatsoever and I don’t mind if that means I don’t have the fastest car out there. Besides, I’m a Fiat girl, I show no fear in…

I can tell you since racing my Abarth was like racing a bar stool in a telephone box. It’s an absolute blast!...riiight up until the moment when the asphalt starts to fill up your windshield.

I’m actually getting another Abarth for street so don’t worry. This is exclusively to be my race car. As much as I adored racing my Abarth, I don’t feel like killing another and my husband is super not down with my racing an Abarth anymore.

I wouldn’t be much of a goth girl if I didn’t say nice price now, would I?

As a Fiat owner, I resent this. Only my TPMS and CEL lights were on, both caused by modifications, not by the car. We’re not THAT bad, yeesh!

And I’ll have a trained ferrit in the footwell to press the clutch pedal for me

If the falcon sits (perches?) In the middle, I would sadly be likely to grab it’s little head and try to shift with it on accident. Then there would be blood all over my lovely Bentley

After finding myself quite literally flying (upside down!) in my beloved Abarth, I’ve been fending off numerous suggestions of Corvettes and Miatas. This would be a way of satisfying both sides while also keeping me appeased with a scorpion.

Scaring the hell out of her on a very twisty mountain road. I do not have a lovely sainted mother, I have a generally awful wretch of a female human from whence I sprung 29 years ago. Guiding my car at uncomfortable-to-her but comfortable-to-me speeds as she begged me to slow down was pure heaven. I like to think of…

Nebraska. Fuck Nebraska. Plus my mom lives there and I avoid her like the plague. I refuse to go to SCCA Nationals till it’s either not in Nebraska or my mom dies off, alas the woman will be around with the cockroaches and Keith Richards after all else has died.

I once saw a porn of a girl fapping and driving. I was actually most impressed by the fact she was driving stick.
