Aha! So that’s what the Bill Withers song is all about...

I tried to sell my soul once, turns out there is a lien on it

I’ve had two friends in the last two years lose their cars because of rodent damage: it’s a pervasive problem.

No doubt this McHemi has a triple-thick Shake-r hood scoop so while the Burgers are burgled he needs to finger fries cuz lettuce hope Mayor McCheese is chasing and he’ll  Ketchup.Mustard up all his energy

Remember when they literally used soy for wire insulation and it either biodegraded faster than the car or got eaten up by mice?

The back end of the Discovery is totally off-putting to me. Something just doesn’t look right.  It may be an illusion but seems like the middle of the hatch is farther back than the bumper.

Nah, that’s before today’s writers time.

I don’t think it is a customer vehicle. At 1:06 he says “Now that we’ve had the truck and driven it a couple thousand miles...”

At least the BMW 2 series Gran Coupe doesn’t have the Angry Beaver look of most other cars in their lineup. It’s a pretty classic face.

It would be 1000x better with some proper-fitting period wheels.

*checks mileage* Fuuuuuck no. Even for a 15-year-old car, with this much non-OEM hardware under the hood, 10K+ miles/year is a lot.

I had a W123 and it was comfy, but I’d prefer something sportier if I’m going to pay the German tax — BMW 635CSi.

Now playing

Definitely Harry Metcalfe’s beautiful Jaguar XJC V12 with 5-speed manual conversion. If the mechanics were reliable, it would be simply the perfect daily driver car.

Jaguar XJS.

Porsche 911. It was the same car in 1973 as it was in 1983, it was the same car in 1999, and it’s practically the same car now.

Though if we’re talking up through 1984, no doubt, Audi quattro.

No real comment, but thanks for using my Stelvio photo and thanks for crediting. I really tried to capture the weirdness of those mirrors. I also got to sit inside of it, but I was too excited to check whether or not I could see them very well.

The 993 generation Porsche 911 mirrors always weirded me out.

I’m a sucker for Japanese cars with the mirrors way out front. I get that this placement is worse from both function and safety viewpoints, but damn it looks slick.

Not “weird,”, but at the time I thought the mirrors on the 1st Gen Ford Probe were unique. They flow with the design of the front fender and door and are part of the body rather than add-on appendages.
