I’m a fan. I’ve always preferred sedans over hatchbacks for grocery-getting, because I like dropping my groceries in a visually-secured trunk. If I run other errands, I like my purchases so-far to be hidden and secured. So, I’m a fan. The big money-shot that makes your idea ripe is the trend in design specific to so…

Weight. I know, I know... That’s not “unique” to me, as a shopper. But I buy cheap cars, so no Lotus Elise. I believe that power to weight ratio is far more important to power. So I really search for cars that optimize that ratio without necessarily massive amounts of power.

Smashed CP so hard I broke my CP finger. Even if it was mint, that pos? 

Sold, and for a decent price. Thanks for the encouragement. 

MI6 would make a Lotus Esprit submarine. Lucas electricals would work in a Lotus Esprit submarine. 

Your 68 Camaro can be restored by the French foreign exchange student. 

Exotic sports cars can drive under a semi truck without decapitation. 

A Delorean can do 88.

I re-post it every couple of months. I get a few lukewarm emails, but nobody ever serious. Then I have spend all day every day in the office, sometimes working on Saturday. By the time I have a few free minutes, I have no energy to reel in CL nibbles. You are correct, though. I need to close the deal and DD a…

As someone with an M3 with a stick shift, rwd, and v8 out in my driveway, I can’t wait to get rid of that thing. Realistically, I pretty much only drive in the city. I am frickin’ tired of that clutch in city traffic. I don’t care too much about wheel-drive-edness anymore. I just want an automatic for city driving. 

Scrolled straight to CP. Had something like this as an Uber the other day. Shockingly unpleasant to ride in. 

Thanks. I’m getting mail almost weekly as the manufacturer of my and the missus’s car is frantically trying to tell us to get our airbags recall serviced. You want to replace my airbags? Send me a card announcing your Sunday morning, no-waiting service. 

That thing looks Beat. Are the mechanics sorted, or is it all “Acty-uppy”? Ain’t nobody got time for all that Jazz. That thing just isn’t Acura-te. Not even if it had Gold Wings, would I Pilot it. Keep that thing off the Ridgeline near my house!

Aw, but now I want the legendary c5 z05 with a 7.0 litre v8! Maybe Saleen can make me one, or Hennessy. Or, any Jalops want to go in a business with me, to develop the soon to be legendary c5 z05 with the 7.0 liter v8?

Nicest NP that ever nice-priced!

2004-era Subaru Forester

What 5-series do you have to go back to for this to be the larger car? Is this bigger than an e39? E60? 

If someone gave me this for free, I'd be annoyed that it was on my property. CP 

I agree. The customer will be able to say that the manufacturer did it. In the future, within the world of collectors, that will be the most impeccable restoration to have on that car’s history.

I don’t disagree, but your point doesn’t counter exactly what I said. I just said that you would avoid OEM 3rd-party markups. When the OEM sells a part to you, (I agree with you) they will not sell it to you at their cost. They are in a business, and so will sell at a profit. But their profit is likely less than the…
