Way overpriced, but I loved the two that I used to own. Nothing beat the view of that Shaker from behind the steering wheel.

This turd..

I can see where the styling cues came from...

That’s because all the 2A people talk a good game about “when the SHTF”, but when the actual SHTF, they all turtle like we knew they would.  

When I was a teenager (back in the very early 80's), a guy I worked with at a full serve gas station had a 304 Gremlemon. He put a 396 BB Chevy in from a Chevelle SS, a 4.11 gear set and a Muncie M-21 four gear bang box. That thing would rip rubber all the way through all four gears with 50 series tires on it. No

Oh Yeah. Picked up a brand new (‘19MY) Fiat 124 Spider Lusso, with full jam for 1/3rd off sticker in late November 2020. Had to drive 6 hours to get it, but it was worth it. At the time of purchase there were used 124 Lusso’s going for 5K more than I paid for mine. I lucked out, Dealer was out in farm country and he

Sweden’s version of Freiburger and Mike Finnegan?

I was a teen when the van craze took off.  This is one primo shagg’n wagon.  Now crank the Zeppelin and Aerosmith.

The “Opel” Blazer pictured in the slide-deck is the Indonesian model which was manufactured with right hand drive (clearly visible in the photo shown). The Euro-spec Blazer was LHD and featured a bowtie on the front rather than the Opel bolt. 

As of yesterday, F1 is now Wrestlemania of auto racing.

Indy Car’s push-to-pass is a better gimmick, albeit still a gimmick.  It least it would be up to the driver to used it wisely until it’s all gone.

It’s fine? It’s a video game gimmick. You want to pass the guy in front of you, then work your ass off to do it. You’ve obviously never raced before.

F1 has transitioned into “Wrestlemania” in the last two races. It’s no longer a sport, but an orchestrated spectacle.  

Actually, I’d love it if Bottas crashed Hamilton as a good bye and eff-u to Mercedes in his last race with them. But in a perfect world, having Russell take out Hamilton as result of a racing incident would be the cherry on top of the dessert as well as set up a lovely dynamic for next season because I have the same

Every picture of Cawthorn is a “dick pic”.

Alfa Romeo 4C. Negotiating the wide entry over the door sill, into the most uncomfortable front passenger seat I’ve ever sat in, requires the gymnastic skills of Simone Biles. Once you’re seated, you’ll realized that the lady in the box getting sawed in half by a Magician has better the leg room in that box than she

The guy in the LeBaron pic looks like Frank Converse from TV truck series Movin’ On.

My parent’s Mirada (identical to the picture) was the bomb.  

Camry, Corolla, Cressida, Tercel and Lexus?  Toyota has been making up shit for decades.

Not sure if one would classify this post as an oxymoron or a paradox. First paragraph is most insightful. Second paragraph is some Trump level bullshit.
