Hey man, don’t feel bad. The gauge never worked on those things anyway. You would have run out of gas even if you had Oprah money.

Those cones are stand-ins for gas pumps.

I don’t know, unfortunately. A 401 with EFI (but no smog equipment) had been swapped in when I bought it. The forums say EFI really just helps it start and run well year round. Even LS swapped projects don’t seem to get more than 18mpg. That’s a huge improvement as a percentage (I get 13-15) but it would take a decade

My 88 has been upgraded to EFI, but the transmissions that swap in easily really don’t do much for mpg and the factory one is so hard to kill I haven’t gotten the opportunity to replace it with something more efficient. Same with the engine.

I’m with you. I tried to think what the price would have to be for me to bite, and I decided that I just don’t want to be within 100 miles of whoever owns that car right now. There’s no such thing as a NP for this situation.

i’m pretty sure citizens united gave banks citizen’s arrest powers.

I kind of doubt he/she drives it, but I’d bet they don’t really want to sell it because it brings people into the showroom. That thing probably helps them sell a shitload of cheaper Chargers.

yeah but what if i’m a fatso?

i agree. that newest gen is the worst-looking of all of the gens.

COTD for sheer correct answerness. shame on you, jalopnik staff.

to financially back these projects, i recommend they also stick to their bread and butter: produce cheap kind of crummy cars that don’t look embarrassing, and clean up on high interest loans to the poor people that need cars like that to get through the day. Mitsu lost its way when it forgot about the part where the

i like oddballs as much as the next jalop, but with meh performance and old-for-the-time tech, it better have its original scheme and badging. CP.

so it’s kind of like a Honda Element if it was made completely out of Honda Element front lower control arm bushings.

My Toyota C-HR gets less than 240 miles to the tank. I’d buy this just so i don’t have to go to the gas station twice a week.

I am with you. If I’m going to invite Lotus drama into my life, it better have big tits.

Nope. I’m not opposed to Evoras, I think they are lovely. I’m OK with white paint and brownie leather. But if I’m ever going to buy a Lotus I’m going to go all in and get the S. Without the 345hp engine, any money into this car is bad money.

i like these Japanese cars that aren’t sold here, but i don’t want to deal with RHD. Are any of these forbidden fruit Japanese cars sold LHD, to other countries that I could import from? At least with weird British cars I can usually just import one from mainland Europe and get it with LHD if I really want one.

i only hate it when i can see the texture. which is ok, because i’m never anywhere near real carbon fiber.

as someone who has only lived in texas and southern california, how do you use engine braking in snow? here we just smash into each other or stay home.

i have a need for that. but to be fair, i didn’t until like just now.
