The un-noded bends in the passenger compartment don’t give me warm feelings. If the bars in the passenger area where the same diameter as the rear, had an anti-intrusing bar to protect from side impact (shoulder to footwell) and noded, like the rear, this could be safe...ish. Assuming they used the right wall

CTS-V wagon, with manual...this one is $69.5k, FSBO.

Yup. That and its also a lot cheaper to buy the bigger rolls of wire from my experience. I have a huge one in mine that’s lasted for 2 years so far.

Well, he is a very bright engineer, and has surrounded himself with other very bright people. Apparently, he’s also very easy and approachable to talk to as well. 

And screw you guys. Mayo is great. Try making a BLT (the Cadillac of sandwiches) without Mayo.

Kosciuszko Mustard. Absolutely the best mustard you will ever try. Perfect combination of flavor and spice.

Stadium Mustard is the best because it has the taste of nostalgia in every serving, along with the perfect balance of vinegar and spice of course.

Manual Honda Fit. 

Volvo c30. The Volvo seats are the best seats for long commute.

As someone who also drives 80 miles a day, trust me when I say 2012-2017 Buick Regal GS. You can get some of the earlier years within your budget. They have good power and are comfortable to drive. I generally get 28-31mpg depending on the time of year (winter vs Summer blend) and it still has enough power to be fun.

Just suggested this but a TSX wagon with the v6 or I4 would be good. The i-4 can be had with a manual as well just have the Extend warranty covered by Honda for the piston rings (source)

You can get a Focus ST in budget, in and around Baltimore.  There are 11 in your area on Autotrader that are under $16K.  Funm cheap, reliable, and practical.  It’s all the things your GTI was when it was the same age.

To say a car is “Fonzy 13" means that the front brakes aren’t working, after the 1912 Hispano Suiza Alfonso XIII, which had a dead front axle with no brakes, and only had rear drum brakes. 

I think they have the rights to it.

The profile is very similar to the Corbin Sparrow and Merlin (the latter which never made it to market because of Corbin Motors bankruptcy IIRC). I’m wondering - is it related? Did Electra Meccanica buy the IP in bankruptcy proceedings or something?

Cadillac’s Situation Continues To Escalade

Cadillac! Hey, Cadillac! It’s your cousin, Lincoln! You know that profit margin you were looking for?! Well...

Hey, it’s less than a 1994 Toyota Supra.

Have you ever used an original Dieter Rams-designed device? It’s elegance of efficiency. That’s the way I feel when I sit behind the dash of a 930 Porsche. It’s everything you need presented in a logical, but still artistic way. There’s something so aesthetically pleasing about this.
