At some point I feel like GMC became what Cadillac should have become

Came here for this, couldn’t remember the car. I hope in the future everyone realizes the superior configuration for automatics is a nice electronic column stalk, maximizes cabin real estate is a no brainer to operate. At some point it became associated with downmarket but I think that moment has passed 

rarer isn’t better. we know what 69 camaros and chevelles go for because people actually like them.

for me it was my ignorance of what a shell of an old car with no motor would go for. I’m not really into corvettes and it seemed crazy high to me, but after reading the comments it seemed more on the nice price of things due to the market for that era corvette

it checks all the craigslist special boxes:

My mother in law is one, and she bought a convertible Mini Cooper so...

my most recent cars have been pretty deep into the lifecycle unchanged. hoping the VW 1.8L TSI with the 6 speed automatic is fairly tried and true

the problem is realistically a new model year will always have some new shit on it of some kind, so are we only talking about year with new engines and transmissions? new platforms? plus most problems people love to complain about are only apparently 4-5 years down the road so who knows really.

Is that really what a shell of a C3 goes for? Obviously there is a lot you can do with this husk but a husk is a husk

Still trying to parse that statement myself...anyone hiring an architect has money and probably wants their architect to have excellent taste in design. But what do I know

i agree toyota can’t put hideous and impractical aero on their cars. but i for one can’t guarantee that this vehicle is significantly more aerodynamic without wind tunnel results. maybe its 1% more aerodynamic, maybe its 50% more aerodynamic, that’s what I want to know.

i just want to know the results of this experiment. I have to assume toyota engineers have done a pretty good just maximizing gas mileage on the prius. like, does that giant aero feature on the back give any benefit given that it adds weight? is the difference only 1-2% is there any difference at all? any small gain…

Well done

We found the weiner

I personally think you have been sitting and waiting for the perfect car to deploy that sleeper pun and today was the day.

I saw an ambulance with lights blaring pass everyone on the left in the incoming traffic lane in very thick downtown traffic. a box truck turned left into a cross street that the same time the ambulance was passing through the intersection. the ambulance careened off the truck and went over a fire hydrant and straight…

the difference is, nobody buys EVs without a home charging station. You add a home charger to this situation and the only time you deal with charging in public is when you leave your city. And then you will be at full charge because you knew you were going to go and you fill up all the way at home first. You drive…

for sure, its a gem. way more space in the back than most wagons and crossovers, could go through mud and snow up to the rocker panels with no drama, still had car like handling dynamics on the road, and a touch of that old school turbo lag just for fun.

And it’s a terrible idea in practice because all you do is huff engine fumes and soot when you drive around with the rear window open. It’s even worse on the old carbureted no Cat cars

I bought a manual 2.5XT manual new in 2009. The last enthusiast-ish outback. And it was glorious. For some reason I got rid of it and have regretted it since. But you’re right. Nobody cared about it.
