You can maintain it easily, but yes, if you bin it, then you're screwed. But that's true of many of the 90's thru 2k cars, thanks to cash for clunkers. The used part biz has dried up, go older? you can find it, go newer? no problem. Try to find a rare part for a rare car from the time period? good luck. I was mostly

there are parts manufacturers that are still making parts, also most of the service bits since 94 are from other GM cars. With regular maintenance they do tend to last long than average

best soundtrack, ever

If for now other reason than all the cars are DRIVEN at some point.

From a PM course at a place I used to work at.

The Mrs, who doesn't really like low sports cars (see later) would love one of these, because it's a convertible that sits like a SUV and that works for her (occular albinism means that night glare in a low car is a real issue)

to go with the "What's my car worth? " grading standard.... It's collectiblity is a D, many, and not much of a demand, and a condition score of 4- because it may or may not all be there, using parts from a nonexistent manufacturer. You could SBC it, or sklyine inline 6 it, but it's a ton of money for a car without

in 3000 years, that thing is going to come looking for us, and it's going to be pissed

courtesy of GM they completely lost their way and ended up getting downsized out of existence. Great heart, quirky cars, and no clue how to capitalize on the fact that they were better than Volvo, and in the leader in FWD tech

I had just started driving when this gem came out, I remember lusting at it in the parking lot of the local VW dealer, it sat between a Rabbit 4 door and a Westy camper. Still want one today NP

For me.... in order

Philadelphia, and yep useless in snow here as well

which weighed twice as much

yep I was just about to post this, she did almost as well in a large van. She is most definitely the Queen of the Ring and should of been the Stig at some point

Bad things happen to good people in these storms.

sure, because harassing a mid level Googler is going help. You want to make a change? Go harass Sergei or Larry, they're the ones leading the marching band, not this guy back in the low brass section

15K for a karmen ghia of that vintage in primo shape? sure...

Ladies and Gentleman, can we get an AMEN! for the 2015 Dodge Colt? ( I wish it was, but it won't be)

Not available for free streaming, but worth the $2 for the rental, The Gumball Rally, is a GREAT film for people who love cars and unbelievable ploy lines, Raul Julia is great as an italian race car driver and Gary Busey does redneck really well, but it's the cars! Ferrari Daytona vs 427 Cobra is the best match up out

Growing up in south eastern PA, we had solid blue cop cars with code 3 light bars , that were PROPANE powered 318 Dodge Diplomats.... no power, no speed, kids on motorcycles? no tickets
