This idea meets with my approval.

Somebody would pay 10 large for this (admittedly well-done) piece. I would not. But I wouldn't hand a shitburger to anyone who did.

Whoever animated this doesn’t really get what the front wheels are supposed to be doing in an ass-happy launch like this...but the rest of it is gold.

230,000 miles with maintenance records ain't scaring me. I'd buy this.

I think this is a nice price for one of these. I’ve always liked them, especially since that Top Gear episode where Jezza smacks on of these (as well as a C6) around. Plus manual.

I’m actually impressed by how cohesive a package this is. It looks pretty good, and would pull its share of double-takes.

I’m going to try to undo the damage I did to myself last week when I tried to cross-shop a ‘72 International with an ‘05 Suburban.

100% agreed.

Yeah, see? That’s what I’m talking about.

Hey, it's just my opinion, brother. The cool part about cars and opinions is that we all get one.

Good advice. Thanks.

So the question I’d be asking is “What am I using this for?” If I’m buying it because I want a vehicle with four doors and a shitload of cargo capacity, I’d probably save a few G’s and buy this used Suburban with 4wd, an extra gear in the tranny, probably better parts availability and a larger network of local service…

This is the kind of thing that could only be understood by those who get it. I don't myself (ohh, what I could do with 13 G's) but if you're looking to get your inner McFly on, this is where you start (and then straight to JC Whitney for a sweet light bar). NP, but not for me.

Well, I did call that guy a fuckwit, after all. ;)

Good advice. Thanks.

Man, I am all for getting your shit out of the garage and getting it dirty. Guy who did the F40 thing in the snow? Proper. Super-rich dude who beasted on his Rolls-Royce Phantom on the lawn? I raise a crisp bubbly glass of Busch Light to you, sir. Guy who wrecked his Mustang like a fuckwit leaving Cars and Coffee?…

My first bike was a 1973 CB350—pretty similar. A lot of fun, but loud (with the glasspacks) and slow (compared to my later Magna V65). I loved it and wouldn't mind having it back again, but, as nice a shape as it was in when I bought it, I wouldn't pay 5-frigging-G's for it. CP.

t If I had that kind of scratch, I would pay that for this thing. It’s hard to pin down exactly why, because you could get what I’m fairly certain are equally (or nearly so) capable vehicles for far less. There’s something about this big ol’ brick, though. And I’ve said oft before that the presence of a manual…

Yeah. N-effin'-P.
