Yah I didn’t realize how good I had it. You never saw em in ‘03-05 when I had mine and you still don’t

They’ll hover around that price for even less than decent models, forever, I think. I’m just hoping on finding a heap I can restore at this point. Actually rather interested in the 4-door version Audi 90 now. Just an interesting statement next to a 90's BMW or Mercedes.

Always thought the ZX2 Blazers were cool. Kinda want to put a Bravada face on one just for kicks bc I had a white Bravada for a lil while I didn’t appreciate enough. Thing was comfy

A black & gold Porsche 944, non turbo, burgundy leather. Sat on a street corner at a small dealer’s lot on the main drag of town for much of my middle- hichschool career, collecting all kinds of grime on from passing cars

You’re good peoples.

Push-Button Differential Lock-WAIT WAIT!...On normal sedans.

Here to pile on the “Exactly as you describe,” sentiment. Drove right up to the shore when I went: 124 degrees f. + The smell of a cracked open septic tank and hot-garbage landfill. Nothing but sun bleached carcasses of fish and birds all the way down the shoreline, plus the flies tending to them.

Well written. Captured the feels around this car...

This was me literally 10 seconds ago buying & wrapping a birthday gift+ card for my 5 year old niece in the 30 minutes before my parents drive 6 hours for her spoiled ass birthday. Yup on Jalopnik in my car. Drinking a Starbucks. Target isn’t entirely evil.

No one really marvels at the engineering or aero prowess of a Stock-car, I get it. But that doesn’t mean they can’t be fast. It’s unfortunate you don’t see them casually show up at more track days because it is great fun watching them put a hurting on Joe-Porsche-Watch and his track toy.

Shoo I WOULD go for a Ripmo bc I’ve heard great things and the price point is also great. Just can’t find em anywhere for like all of 2020/21, it seems. As much praise as Carbon MTB’s get for toughness, I’m still a 250lb dude I’d find a way to break a fancy ass’d Druid. Also $$

I’m sorry if I missed it, but have you a take on the Delica/ HiAce 4x4 market, besides to say(my take) it’s redonkulous and the #vanlyfe movement screwed it over? Should I shop the same auction sites looking for deals or just look to Taiwan/ Thailand? Is it hopeless?

You’d better give that fkin thing the 1x treatment. Box Components prime 9 is pretty affordable and smooth I’m told. With a sexy chainring. Like, wolftooth, or something. Ovaloid. the subreddit r/xbike has corrupted me

*gasp*  FANCY KRIS-? Aw... :*(

Boy howdy it’d be nice to call a Delica or HiAce affordable in North America... I mean I imagine they’re affordable in the moment whatever #vanlyfe chode found it in Japan or Thailand before they shipped it over, made some plywood “upgrades,” beat the snot out of it for the likes until realizing they aren’t mechanics…

Is that the actual Webster definition? Your definition is deliberately narrow, mine is deliberately wide.

It’s all jewelry. I’m perfectly fine with tagging enthusiast oriented cars as a form of jewelry. There’s no absolute necessity to owning an absurdly fast Porsche 911 if you intend to follow traffic laws and never take it to a race track- which most don’t. A Hyundai Sonata can cruise comfortably at the fastest highway…

At last somone’s hit on the one thing I was going to mention that most of the bro’s here (deliberately, I think) overlook: Simple Adornment. Just like great pieces of jewelry someone of any orientation would choose for themselves, watches are in the narrow masculine category along with cufflinks (and maybe a nice tie)…

Early 2018 talking to a paving contractor I was delivering parts to, about the new Raptor having a TTV6...having owned both the 1st V8 Raptor and a ttv6 F150 he straight up did not believe me (er didn’t want to), thought I was wrong and predictably went on about how the better gas mileage claims for the V6 F150 were…

I thought that was the dilly...an now I just want to go to Dulles
