I gotta agree with you here...though I'd like to point out just for the sake of being a dick that "probably totaled" and "definitely totaled" aren't quite the same thing. It was probably totaled before; it's definitely totaled now.

Ooh, nice one.

Bucketofish.

I'm not voting (so shouldn't comment, I know) but stuff like this just keeps feeding the slow-burning fire of bummage over cool stuff we never got.

Oh man, agree X1000. And they were available with a manual transmission too, at first! I had two of them and loved them both...though, come to think of it, one was bulletproof and the other was a cursed pile of fermenting camel shit.

I dunno....Jack Baruth over at The Truth about Cars wrote a piece that intrigued me about the 2012 Impy with the new V6.

In a Cobra, I mean. I know Shaq fits in his Lacrosse okay, but that's different.

Yeah, but you still have to be able to get your knees under the steering wheel or you'll never be able to get your feet on the pedals. I have a friend who's only 6'5" and he couldn't drive my Triumph Spitfire, which was also a convertible. I'ma have to do some research and see what the deal is. My interest is…

"Shelby's list of customers included Wilt Chamberlain..."

I like the cut of your jib, sir.

Oh God. Wagon + manual + AWD = HOLY HOONWAFFLES. Plus I could fit an upright bass in it. Me wubs. But as soon as the transmission or the clutch garboon themselves, I suspect the 5-year-old Civic option will look more reasonable.

I hear ya. It would be nice (I'm just blue-skying here) if they kept up the pursuit. You know; chasing the 5-series with the CTS; the 3-series with the ATS; and then something smaller to fill the gap that will be left when the 1-series goes FWD. Perhaps ELR-sized, but rear drive and with the 2.0 turbo.

Yeah. You must have missed the RWD Cadillac part.

Aaaand here comes BMW's new 1-series, that will also be front wheel drive.

Yes. The world (and me, of course) needs more of those.

What Zippy said.

I dunno...Tom Cruise isn't maybe the most versatile actor, but he kicked my ass in Tropic Thunder. And Days of Thunder was a long time ago, and even that had nice bits. I'm willing to give this a chance just for the story. I just wanna see who they're gonna get to play Enzo.

Would that we could get this in the US as a hatchback. Then I wouldn't care so much about being short, ugly, broke and prone to the hiccups.

That's not a Riviera. That's a Reatta.

"Superfecta of asshat..." I love it and am shamelessly stealing it. I will cite you as a source, however.
