It is pitched at two and half because the seller wants to be argued down to top dollar price for one of these cars. They should start at top dollar and be argued down to realistic instead. I keep seeing this little scam all over Craigslist right now.

I love weird and forgotten stuff from my childhood (late 80s-early 90s) as much as anyone. But come on. $2500 for a “super-rare Geo” better have ultra low miles, been garage kept, full maintenance records, and zero faults.

Remove any of the four digits from the asking price, and I’d buy it. $2500 for a 30-year old

I’m not sure if it is still the case, but back in the day I donated my ‘87 Nova (w/a cracked head gasket among 8000 other problems) to St. Vincent DePaul and got a receipt for the full Blue Book price to write off. It just had to be running when donated (which it would for a few minutes at a time, anyways).

Cash for Clunkers had a maximum trade-in MPG of 18. This is rated at 24.

Denali is just a clever Freudian slip of “denial”

There is absolutely nothing appealing about this car. Better appliance cars can be had for the same cost. This is a car you get for a few hundred when you’ve hit rock bottom.

“Uhhh... Nice truck, sorry about your dick.”

 They know who their target market is: Men with small penises.

I like it. In fact, when the C6 came out with the concave ass and fixed headlights, I was very disappointed. When I first laid eyes on the C5 I called it out as a future classic. It’s aged a little worse than I thought it would in the 90's but it’s still a looker. I think well kept examples will become collector’s

C5 Z06s are a hoot. You should try one. Handles, but has just the right too much power for the capabilities of the driver assists. And the Z06 brakes are spectacular.

Well, whenever a seller says “just needs a clutch” commenters say “so do it”. Maybe the seller just wants to have an easier time selling it rather than listing it as needing repair.

I’d say to have the engine do more than just go vroom-vroom and actually move the car.

I’m aboard for this one too. So many over-priced dogs recently. I was depressed - a twisty drive in this; just what the doctor ordered.

I’m in! Easy money to get into a pretty fun car. Still can’t vote (today I couldn’t even directly reply, had to piggyback here) but put me down for NP.

I agree. This is a sweet spot for a driver. It may not be the purist model, though if you want something to have fun in a few times a month then then is your ride.

Raph is just a hack, no other way to put it.

Many of the writers here thoroughly panned the Cybertruck for being too weird, and now we’re being told the F-150 EV is bad for presumably being too normal. One day GM is bad for not having an EV strategy, and then the next day they are bad for having a comprehensive

THIS! People commonly complain about Jalopnik bashing GM, or being anti-Tesla, anti-gas, anti-EV, being biased against whatever, etc. I don’t think they are really any of those things. I just think there are a few writers (cough cough Raph, Erik, & sometimes Justin) that are negative, overly critical, and generally

“I’m expecting Ford to make the EV F-150 as dull as possible and it will be a bust.”

It’s a nice truck, I just don’t see $11.5K here.
