This is a GM that has held its lines.  No matter what this will always be a Mary Kay Caddy with no ties to previous pink Cadillacs. If you want pink, this is it. For the rest of us, the driver’s seat is going to go south really soon. The vertical boom box in the middle already has display issues. CP for me. There are…

they’ve “succeeded” by any measurement possible

Good point! I hadn’t noticed but the rear bumper skin is definitely a different color.

There’s a threshold price where almost every car priced below that gets a thumbs up on this forum. This one is in that sub $4K sweet spot.

The price is high for the miles and condition.  The top will need to be replaced very soon.  I would also want to know what happened on the rear passenger side.  The rear bumper unit has an oversized gap to go with the two protruding butt dimples.  You can trade off 30K miles for like priced examples for the same…

There’s nothing like a crack pipe to start off Monday morning. This is a gambler’s sale. I think the buyer expecting to replace the gas cap and drive off into the sunset should stay away from casinos. Even if you are lucky and win, this isn’t exactly a rare or highly desired ride. There are others available at a…

The rear view, especially the tail lights, would have been right at home on a rambler.

The stores around us all seem to have ample supplies of toilet paper in various brands. It started showing up 2-3 weeks ago. Now it seems the locals have descended on the shelves and grabbed up all paper towels. Its weird we keep a slight excess and look to restock a package of these items when we dip below a “safety…

It’s..... not..... brown....   /s

That’s not a magnet. That’s a floatation device for her to throw to him when he realizes this car has broken him with its reliabilty issues and jumps in the water.

Bad take. This looks like some aftermarket item tacked onto a car without bluetooth. A mix of tactile buttons with a moderate sized screen is the best solution. This is a recipe for causing accidents. There’s a reason why this was the design for a cheap, throwaway car.

These were designed the way wagons were supposed to be. The lift over is low and the back is cavernous. These weren’t the most reliable ride, but the were like cockroaches in their resistance to death. The clutch is not a big deal on these. I’m guessing the front dash was the victim of a dog not wanting to be alone in…

The economy, as always, has taken the hardest toll on lower income households. They are usually not in the new vehicle market. Even at 15% unemployment, 85% of the labor force is still working. If you factor in 3.5% unemployment in February before COVID, you get a true picture that has COVID causing ~11.5% unemployment…

That data you linked tells me it is doubled from the low point. We’re a couple months from 40-50%. There are planes sitting on the ground, but the fill on those flying is increasing. I travel 50% for business. I’ve been in my primary office or home since mid-March. I’m back in my primary office 50-75% now. I expect to…

I always liked these when they were new.  Now this is just a 27 year-old Mazda that has been ridden hard.  It’s not interesting enough for all the work it would take to undo the rougher years it has seen.  That rust won’t be undone on Mazda’s of this vintage.  Despite the amazing color and the cheap price, CP for me.

Collapse was a strange choice of word. When the economy drops, companies try to do three things, maintain operating cash, keep the core intact, and at least break even. Toyota expects to remain profitable and “can continue to make investments for the future.” That isn’t a collapse.

At least one member of the group is proudly displaying his woodie.

So they got together for an afternoon of cosplay....   Ooohh, Let’s be Badass today. To quote their hero, SAD.

I laugh whenever I am told the Model 3 is a luxury car. It’s a higher end commuter car with a low grade interior design.

Tesla is doing just fine.
