Its been almost 40 years. Factories don’t last forever.

I realize that they are no longer Gawker Media but every time I read an article complaining about other people’s taxes on one of their former sites it always seems incredibly hypocritical to me.
You’re probably not wrong. I drove quite a few of these back in the day with low to 0 miles and the interiors started falling apart from day one. Not that it mattered with the sounds that it made. Still one of the best sounding cars I’ve ever driven.
Why is that? I know looks are subjective but I think the current Fords generally look much better than what GM is offering.
That’s not bad at all.
I got into an argument with a guy who owns a Ford dealership about this. Even they think this is what it’s going to look like.

Gorgeous, but expensive to fix and easily the worst car I’ve ever owned. The interior has absolutely not aged well. Looks straight out of a ‘90 Civic.
How much?
Bought a ‘93 with under 100k miles in ‘01 for $2400. Only drove it for a year or so before I sold it to my brother. It was pretty meh. Bad gas mileage, not that fast, expensive to fix ($1200 for rear struts, $2000 to fix the A/C IIRC). The engine made decent sounds when pushed and it was entertaining in the snow,…
Came here to say this. Had a ‘95 with some mild mods and the engine had too much power for FWD. Especially after the boost limit was removed in 1st and 2nd gear. The power available even at low RPM was impressive for a 4 cyl. Probably still have one instead of my Volvo wagon if it was RWD.

Who cares about the signature, the car is amazing at that price.
Did this at about 80 mph in a 1978 Suburban. Somehow hit it just right and it took off like a plane. Seemed like I was in the air forever before it landed all four wheels at the same time and perfectly smooth. Absolutely the luckiest I have ever been while doing something so stupid. I was going about 110 mph (454…
Not sure you should draw any conclusion from that story but old mini’s are complete POS.
Guy that did the water pump on my ‘78 CJ-5 took several hours and kept bitching about it being held on by 11 bolts. No thanks.
This is pretty much the problem with unrestricted immigration, especially in a country like Sweden. There needs to be a way to integrate them into your society which means education, jobs, etc while not disrupting your social systems and depressing wages. When 25% of your population are immigrants, integration is…
You summed it up correctly. When was the last time you saw one of these on the road? Its been a long while for me. There is a reason for that.
Someone from Portland, OR accusing someone else of racist undertones is probably the funniest thing I will see today.
