Almost as good as the guy who put a Jaguar V-12 into a pre-Federal bumper Camaro decades ago.

Looks like a roadster “reimagining” of the Bond Bug!
The Mini was always a very small car. In the last few decades other vehicles have bloated to the extent that a Berliet T100 or the Saturn V crawler-transporter wouldn’t look too out of place on the road in North America. I appreciate the exaggeration for comedic and dramatic effect angle but making the experience…
I drove deliveries in the Vancouver to Chilliwack area for many years. It’s amazing just how Zen-calm, if not blase beyond belief you can get when you’re in traffic all day, every day. Eventually you get to the point where nothing surprises or upsets you. Well, either that or your head explodes from the rage shortly…
Whaddareya, some kinda Commie? Context is just plain UN-AMERICAN!
Mention of Jon Benjamin always make me think first of:
Too bad Douglas Adams died before he could see his satirical concept of the horrible Sirius Cybernetic Products and their Genuine People Personality A.I.’s that everyone wanted to burn with thermite become a reality. The first person that does an Elvis to the car infotainment screen when they can’t take anymore…
No, no it isn’t. But on the other hand all he did was participate in a kidnapping. Not anything serious like the capital crimes of being caught speeding, standing on the doorstep of your apartment etc. etc.
All that comes to mind is Danny DeVito in Ruthless People when his response to the kidnappers of the wife he wanted to get rid of was “I dare you to kill her” One wonders why they bothered to try to get him back.
Actually I was thinking more along the lines that they’re so hard up they’ve sold any 3000GT’s they may still have owned and can’t afford to get them back... Suggesting that they can’t even afford a wrap is actually a better joke now that you mention it. Yeah, I know they’re not quite in that much trouble. It does…
The people originating the loans often don’t care whether it will be repaid or not as by the time that possibility arises the loans will have been bundled at sold on to other parties. The majority of the population is at best seeing income stay flat but the economy has to keep on rolling so loose money and more…
Even if this guy has been neutered he still doesn’t need a strap on - thanks to his personality he will always be a colossal dick.
It’s fake! I bet the nefarious Putin’s behind this, and the 17 inteligence agencies of the U.S.A. say so too. I even think I saw Boris and Natasha skulking in the background.... Where are Moose and Squirrel when their nation needs them?
“Holy shit...saw two 3000GT’s rolling around the Mitsubishi test plant neighborhood....like, in new model camo....THEY’RE MAKING THE 3000GT AGAIN....”
I love what seems to be the standard Russian reaction to just about any vehicular mayhem they catch on the dashcam - a fairly quiet, almost monotonic utterance of... some word or phrase. This video is a classic example. I don’t speak Russian so I can’t tell what it they’re saying. They just sound so calm and resigned.…
Damn they have some nice machine there! I can’t help but focus on the pre-A 356 though. There was one of those for sale in the car show area at the last vintage races at the much mourned Westwood racetrack. Same colour even. It haunts me to this day because I could have afforded to buy it. It would have been a stretch…
17 + Skyline = BOOM. I look back at the trouble I got into in first a four cylinder Dodge/Mitsubishi D50 pickup and then a 1974 2.8 4-speed Capri and shudder ate the thought of what could have happened if I had managed to get my hands on any of the hotter cars that were around back then (1987). One of the fastest cars…
Too bad that annoying rollover VW ad has convinced me to never buy another W/Audi product for as long as I live... Well, that and the general sleaziness of the company... and the TDI that had a DSG freakout on the test drive and stranded the salesman and myself on the side of the road... and the friends I have who…
Wonderful that the repo man did this. I’ve found that when people meet each other face to face most of them treat each other decently and with empathy. Tragic that the situation came up in the first place though. At 70 and 82 years old this couple should be able to be retired and not be so out on the edge financially…
Oh, the future will suck. You can rest assured on that point. It will suck so bad that removing all your flesh with a belt sander while being sprayed with vinegar will probably seem appealing in comparison. But for the next little while supercars will still be available so that’s all right.
