Agree with this 100 percent.

Ah, 19. Is anything more 90s than a sweatshirt that’s two sizes too big? Even graphic equalizers had kind of run their course by then.

Was thinking exactly that. Way too trashed inside and out to be a collectible or a decent street car, but no roll cage? No racing seats? No harness? No wing or other aero? Oh, but it has a driver’s airbag delete, a plastic windshield, and no a/c. Gotcha.

Had a manual Aerostar growing up. It was awesome. Nothing like doing smoky burnouts in a minivan. If they came out with a manual RWD minivan with, say, the 3.5 Ecoboost, I’d be so tempted, and I say that as someone who DDs a Mustang with 2 kids.

I’ve never believed that. Being poor is a cop magnet. Driving a car that identifies you as a member of certain ethnic groups is, in some areas, is a cop magnet. Driving a red car, or a performance car, or a car that otherwise catches attention, is not a cop magnet. At least based on my observations of what I actually…

I’m not proud to say that my first thought was that I’m not a fan of C3s at all, but that appears to be an early one from before they totally sucked.

Nah, it’s Mike’s *next* ex-wife. His first wife wasn’t nearly that hot.

This is a nice specimen of Lee Iacocca’s unique vision of automotive luxury. Specifically, pleated, overstuffed, basement-rec-room-La-Z-Boy upholstery. I wonder how many snarling dobermans it took to hold him back from adding an opera roof to that hard top.

Yep. That’s exactly why dealer lobbies give millions of dollars per year to state legislatures that continue to ban direct sales, and any other alternative retail model. It’s because manufacturers wouldn’t want to do it anyway. The market that exists under current franchise laws is identical to the one that would…

My previous car was a first-generation TSX with a proper tan interior. Wouldn’t have even been my first choice, but boy did it ever grow on me.

Because he ‘asn’t got shit all over him. 

The base Cayenne IS TOO a real Porsche!

IKR? Right off the top of my head, I see room for a Yaris-based micro-ute and a Highlander with a pointless chopped-down rear, frameless windows, and just enough of a restyled interior to justify a $5k markup (call it an XUV or an “activity coupe” or whatever the hell BMW calls theirs). *Then* build a new MR2, which…

Yebbit I’m pretty sure media outlets don’t print pictures of leaked memos or quote them verbatim for just that reason. What you’re describing is called a “canary trap,” which I learned by reading Tom Clancy novels as a teenager in the early 1990s, which means I know about as much about counterintelligence as the…

Was just about to say the same thing.

Yup. McCain may not live up to his own mythology, but the Senate map isn’t favorable in 2018 and he’s a flippable vote when we need 2 or 3 and it really matters. The moreso because he’s probably in his last term, so he is thinking about legacy and being remembered as the kind of hero he wants to be. He’s kind of in…

Proud to equalize the star count just there.

Sort of. It has a black pony under the rearview mirror. Other Fords have a Ford logo I think.

The problem is, he was better in Madden than in real life. The league had figured out how to defend him when he went to jail, forgot while he was in, and took about a season to remember after he got out. He was small and had a weird throwing mechanic that made his release point lower still, which gave him problems…

I won’t hear you defame the manual Aerostar! My family had a 1987 with the manual — only car my parents bought new, and I daily-drove it in high school in the mid-90s and even owned it briefly in college in the late 90s.
