haaaa my first was a 77 spit. i still miss that car.

i don’t think we ever got the V8 in the US but i sure do like the MG and Triumph GT versions.

i wouldn’t drive it at night. and those wheels are bullshit. but i like it.

If it weren’t for the MGA and sticking 3 windshield wipers on some of their cars, I’d say Triumph did everything better than MG.

show me a good US-spec European bumper from that time period. anything Mercedes spent over 99 pfennigs was utterly wasted.

well yeah but back then they were still making gaskets out of crushed recovered war loot.

also because all of the spark plugs are probably fouled with oil.

yessir. the front fenders aren’t pretty either. and that double stack front grill. reminds me of the 2021 Silverado. all in all, i think this update is fucking terrible.

All the way over. 

reluctant CP. this might be the only 1988 Acura Legend on the planet that doesn’t have a shitty purple back windshield tint full of orange bubbles.

i’d like to see new retro versions of the mid-’70s vans. ripe for conversions and custom work. also we need to bring lake pipes back.

i think this is where cadillac should go anyway. big fucking ostentatious obnoxiously nouveau riche cars and SUVs. they can make a smaller vehicle, but it should be a coupe and really fucking big for a coupe.

Cars aren’t about enough. There is no market for brand new basic transportation in the US. There was about a 30 year window between the oil embargo in the ‘70s and the auto financing revolution in the late 90's where people bought new cheap cars. This was because in the 70's and 80's there was no such thing as an…

and before that they were making purple 610 wagons with white vinyl interiors that my mom owned and my dumbass dad sold 4 months before i got my driver’s permit.

i have no problem with this whatsoever. seems like there should be a 510 wagon crosscountry EV based on this.

Joel Nissan. Went to high school with him. He was kind of an asshole then, too.

you’re right! this is exactly the powertrain i’d want in this Mk.

eh people that are into 30 year old Volvos love high mileage. this thing would sell for $3k more if it was at 499,990 miles. it’s a hipster douchebag version of Stolen Valor.

did you check to see if your key worked in it?

i think a lot of 240s look cool. but i hate the bumpers on this year.
