Sometimes the emissions are worth it. This is one of those times.

Cost is absolutely the reason the manufacturers are not participating. I’m just saying its a shame because auto shows are fun to attend.

It’s sad how the auto shows are dying. I went to the NY show the last few years and it’s still quite fun even though it pales in comparison to how it was when I was a kid. Sure automakers are going to use the internet to introduce new products but there’s still no replacment for seeing things in the metal and where…

I don’t disagree with the sentiment but the states do not necessarily want to manage the land.

Reduced to 16% and 50% of their former size, respectively.

The thing about exotics that have more than 450hp is they don’t cost 35k.

Speed don’t top over holes!

That’s not how that works.

Just goes from bad to worse.

Can we have a discussion about light up brand logos?

This is a terrible take. 3.2's are known to go 100k before they need a top end rebuild. Most of the time when you open the case the bottoms are pristine. Motronic fuel injection is highly reliable. Transmissions go 100k if you don’t treat it like a drag car. With the addition of a couple of relays and elimination…

Sweet fancy Moses!

I would take a Boxster on looks alone any day of the week. And twice on Sunday.

They’re not doing volume. That’s the point.

Excellent post. People love to talk about the high prices of fully restored FJ40s that are done well (FJ Company, TLC), but don’t realize the base costs of just the parts, never mind the expertise and time to put it together. A good DIY resto costs 20k and that doesn’t include a decent truck to start with and doing…

Love the Label Baby, baby.
