ABSO-FCUKIN-LUTELY.

You’re mistaken. I’ve been in the business for over 25 years. I make a 6 figure income, I help people, and I sleep at night.
At the right dealership you can make a good living honestly. I’ve worked for one owner at two different dealerships for over 15 years of my time at this. The right place with decent management…

Man not sure where these people work? I sell Chevy in Michigan we are open 9 am till 6pm and till 9pm on Monday and Thursday. No saturday or Sundays. Every sales person here has been here at least 10 years. We work our own deals, no manager involved at all and that includes Finance (back end products) We work the deal…

I had a ‘67 912 that was custom painted at the factory in Champagne Yellow. I picked it up at the factory the day before the factory closed for the changeover to the unfortunate ‘68 model with the air pump. I later learned that Porsche had run out of the 912 chassis and that mine was a converted 911 chassis (s/n…

Yep, used car glut fixed nationwide in one week.

True, but also consider that this engine is a stand-alone configuration in the example given. What do you think it’ll look like once it becomes coupled with a hybrid drivetrain?

Ahhh... I just realized I saw one of these today, and didn’t realize what I was looking at. “The new Miata looks really nice from behind. Very European.” I thought. I’ll just cut up my car enthusiast car now.

I’ve driven them back to backish now and, while the Mazda is revvier, I think the power (torque mostly) in the Fiat is a significant advantage. Suspension seemed pretty darn close with a tiny bit less body roll from the Fiat. Given that we’re Jalops though, I think most of us would/will spring for a few upgrades,…

As with most things, the answer is still Miata.

Later, at a bar:

I think the author needs to drive a sorted Subaru-swapped van with the upgrades favored amongst Vanagon owners. A whole new experience.

I would love to see Volvo reissue the 240 using this strategy of producing a car that is exceedingly basic. In world of needless layers of complexity, this is precisely what we need.

The swoops are minimal on the Scout, and I think it’s a fantastic-looking, clearly American cruiser

Yup, I was in similar shoes. I bought a suzuki SV650 and couldn’t have been happier.

The Chobani CEO seems like a standup dude, unless you wear tinfoil hats.

I think I just got brake cleaner in my eyes or something...

Some say that the highest praise a man can get from his father is to be told that he has got what it takes to be a man.

Back when I was a sophomore in college, I had just bought myself a nice, practical, reliable Golf. I then realized I could buy a [shitty condition] Honda S2000, my affordable dream car, for about the same money. Dad helped me “get serious” about buying one so that he could demonstrate why it would be a bad decision to…

After many overseas trips to sketchy countries, my wallet is permanently in my left front pocket.
