@GåßëÊdwå®d§ - - Half British/Half Colombian Volvo-driving Gluteal Haberdashery.: It all makes sense now. I remember the old Village Idiot on West 14th in NYC.

@FTGDWolverineEdition: Wow, small world.

Gotta be this one:

@LandofMinos. Wonders why F1 has a garden gnome walking around shaking hands before each race: Wow, I would love one of those things. Too bad 16 2/3 RPM records don't exactly grow on trees! I 've never heard of that speed, I wonder if they were only "for Chrysler, by Chrysler"? In that case, you're probably limited to…

@smackela: Agreed on the capitalization. It hurt my head more than good old caps lock, because at least those guys are making a commitment and sticking with it.

There is a '65 Coupe Deville that's been sitting in a field next to the long-defunct Frontier Saloon in Carp Lake, MI for a least 10 years. I see it almost ever summer when I go up there, and definitely snapped some pics a few years ago. If only I could find the film. This has inspired me to take some more next…

@ausflogan: Don't you mean, "SWEET ASS-FLUTE"?

@patman: True, just stay away from the Videodrome!

@snap_understeer_ftw: Dunno, but if it did, I'd imagine the conversation between car and driver would go something like this: [jalopnik.com]

@FTGDWolverineEdition: That's a Red Flag limousine. I've never seen a real one in red though. At some point in the 90s, FAW updated the red flag to a C3 Audi 100 clone, which they were also making at the time. I believe they also re-badged Lincoln Town Cars and Toyota Crowns.

"In the pylons, the car felt strong and massive." The definition of a true autocross car. I know there's a Miata joke in here somewhere...

@Ben Wojdyla: True enough, although it seems that most of the high dollar neighborhoods are also renaissance zones, so they get tax breaks. I'm just outside of the Boston-Edison renaissance zone so I don't qualify, but my house approaches mansion-like size, at 3500 square feet plus a 1500 square foot unfinished…

@Ben Wojdyla: Eh, the actual dollar value isn't all that high because our property values are shit. I'm actually waiting for the day when they DO become eye watering, because that might mean that my city was, ya know, financially solvent. Or not.

@electricworry: Thanks!

@underwear-ninja: Any one of these...

@B-Sel: Couldn't have said it better myself. I'll be throwing my beater around a rallycross track that day, but I'm sure the drive up north will be pleasant.

I'm going to drive mine, '68 Ford F100 Ranger. Not actually in the Dream Cruise b/c I'm too claustrophobic, but I'm heading up Woodward tonight with a friend to get a little cruise on. I know I've posted this pic before, but it bears repeating.

@LTDScott: Yeah, looks more like a '92.

This is mine, 280k miles and counting.

@Matt Farah: Do believe the article said this was in Taiwan, as the Taiwan plates would seem to indicate.
