I meant to watch that documentary when it was being promoted last year, and completely forgot about it. Did it ever make it to Netflix?

Car & Driver was always a little overly enthusiastic with their published 0-60 times back then. I thought only the 1987 only Buick GNX could consistently lay down sub 5 second 0-60 times. Road & Track put the Grand National at 6.0 seconds 0 to 60.

I do wonder if my kids will one day lust after say a Ford Focus ST, or a Nissan GTR when they are in their 40's.

Pure nostalgia at this point. Why do people go crazy for a 60's era Jaguar E Type? Yeah it was beautiful, but it was hideously unreliable, with frightening handling, and a stock Toyota Camry with a V6 will smoke it all day long on a racetrack. That being said. Someone who lusted after one of these when they were a…

In order to understand the appeal of the Buick Regal Grand National you have to understand just how under-powered the vast majority of vehicles from this era were. A non-Grand National Regal which by all accounts was considered a “decent” personal luxury vehicle of the time made 125 horsepower from the optional V8.…

Ahem....

I’d also consider the 80's Gallic version of the Honda Crosstour.

I’d take one of these in showroom condition, but I prefer the IP from the later 80's versions...

Without a doubt this... Make mine a 1984 to comply with the early 80's requirement.

Wow, I didn’t realize you could look these up. I just watched videos of my last three vehicles. I have to say the 2009 Ford Flex “appeared” to survive both the head on, and offset crash test much better than my 2016 Ford Edge.

CP for being intentionally vague in the listing. Also if the heater repair had been cheap it would have been repaired instead of bypassed.

Hamilton may have missed the lecture on Karl Marx and Das Kapital if he thinks this is a new development or in any way newsworthy.

Obscure 80's Japanese sedan with a turbo motor, digital dash, and overstuffed velour seats with the cut out headrests for only $2k?!? Take my money now!

I sure hope the owner kept the original seats even if they were in bad shape. Otherwise, I’d ask for a discount so I could switch out those stupid aftermarket seats toot sweet! Not sure why he felt the need to switch them out with a pair “manta rays,” because the original seats were supremely comfortable and…

I am just over the edge into CP territory on this one. A Pulsar with the Sportback attachment was uncommon back in the late 80's. It is a unicorn today.

I don’t know if early 80's retro is about to make a comeback, but I do think the second generation Supras have aged nicely. I also miss the wedge shaped cars, which have been made extinct by pedestrian impact regulations. The miles are a bit high, but this one seems well cared for and well sorted. That said, the…

Too soon for this malaise era pornographer’s special. That said, I wouldn’t be shocked to see these start creeping up in price over the next 5-10 years to the point that someone says, “I saw one of these C3's in decent shape on Jalopnik back in 2016 for $7,500.00 I should have snatched that up...”

The Saab is certainly the cleanest design of the motley bunch, but I have a soft spot for the Oldsmobile Bravada, mainly because I bought a brand new Oldsmobile Intrigue just 6 months before GM announced they were pulling the plug on the entire brand. It was my first new car purchase and it sort of scarred me into an…

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but the great last gasp of GM badge engineering the GMT 360 Platform. They badge engineered the beejeezus out of that thing right up to the point they went bankrupt...

It is a beautifully crafted sentence that shows an understanding of the history of the city, the cultural and social mores of the two regions, and pokes fun of both them equally. Well played sir.
