I feel for the poor soul who has to drive this bastard around. I don’t care if the car in question was an original XK-SS, or a Ferrari 250 GTO, I’d still say “fuck no” to that deal.

Hmm, off-road-capable rideshare? You might be on to something with that.

Moar broughams, please. I adore these malaise-era yachts. It’s a sickness.

That’s probably more accurate.

That’s better than mine.

YOUgo.

Well, the easy answer is that I still miss my Integra, the one was stolen and destroyed by thieves.

Insurance scam. I bet the owner did it.

I notice that things like reliability, longevity, and projected maintenance costs are missing from their criteria.

I always assumed it was pilot slang. Airplane throttles are typically vertical levers topped with round “balls.” To open the throttle, one pushes them forward, toward the firewall. So “balls to the wall” means the throttles are wide open.

The SC300 is the cheap MkIV Supra. Same platform, 2JZ engine, and you can do pretty much anything you’d want to do with a Supra with one.

My conscience wouldn’t let me get away with that.

Well, since wide throttle openings combined with upshifting at a lower RPM is supposed to be good for fuel economy, I’d try the opposite and and use a light foot on the throttle and late upshifts.

It’s pronounced “Scheiße.”

It’s that pesky no-puking rule that’d get me. Why would I take an Uber if I weren’t ralphing-down-the-front-of-my-shirt shitfaced?

Nope.

I mean, just look at the thing. It’s uglier than a mud fence.

If she wants to afford to send her kids to college, I suggest she not buy anything German.

I wouldn’t say its speed is obsolete. It’s still a pretty fast car, with the potential to be monstrously quick with a few mods. The R33 is my favorite Skyline.

They do, but the Miata’s limits are lower, and easier to exploit. The S2k is considerably faster, and it doesn’t break traction as progressively as the Miata, so it’s a little trickier to drive in some situations. The Miata feels like you can fling it around all day without anything bad ever happening.
