here is every time the car died in my lifetime:

I’m on board with the ideas of going old.

Unimog gets my vote out of your list. A friend of my dad’s has one that he imported, and I rode in it when I was a teen. It was.. something else.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD BUY A DELTA INTEGRALE

Is this interesting enough? E39 M5 Wagon swap.

Volkswagen Passat W8 Wagon. It’s one of the most Jalop cars ever made:

Some kei car. We need to know what it’s like to live with a tiny car in the US.

My vote: Modern classic - do they live up to the hype / can you MAKE money holding onto one of these for a year?

How about instead of the typical E30 M3, its counterpoint: the Mercedes 190E 2.3-16? They cost far less, so you could do two cars again, and one in absolutely premo condition can easily be had under $20k. Trouble is finding one in premo condition, but you've got time.

You know, even if we only count the 463 G class it’s still a range of 118 hp to 612 hp. Unless the G is too much truck compared to the range rover car

95% out of nostalgia for the early 00’s, but I still love the first gen-focus styling. I remember seeing it in a car magazine when it first came over to the States, and hearing it was from Europe, and having my mind blown. The SVT is still a great cheap Golf GTI that is not a Golf GTI.

Gm sold honda a method of painting the body that prevented rust, and the civics all rusted away anyway. These 70s hondas were truely pieces of junk, but younger people who have never seen one (since they all rusted away) have honda-tinted glasses

I already have my badge.

“3.2L Slant 6”
VR6?

Why does it need Hellcat horsepower? If it’s, say, 1000 pounds lighter (which I believe the RS already is) there’s no need for 700hp. Get it to GTR power with awd, say 475-500, and you’ll have a mid 3 second 0-60. A company called HPI did that with the R32 Golf at 530hp on their Stage III application back in ‘04 and…

The Volkswagen hating “journalists” here at Jalopnik will never let this blow over. The rest of the media will. But not Jalopnik. I mean I love the writers here and Jalopnik in general but man the VW hate is a touch strong. For the past 3 and a half years I’ve tried spreading this website with my co-workers and for…

So you only need to link .002% of those deaths and you’ve surpassed GM’s reported toll.

still find it funny that lying about emissions is worse than shrapnel propelling airbags, acceleration issues and ignition switches that killed people

Oh, one more, “it’s a goddamn off switch”, post.
