Literally the perfect take on the situation. For me, the slushbox is kind of a plus - this car isn’t fast and it’s never going to be, nor is that its mission. It’s casual - and the slushbox is perfectly fitting - I don’t want to work too hard at being casual. It’s cool, in a ‘sport coat’ kind of way of being cool.…

Even Tavarish would say ND to this one. 

town car trunks use ‘dead hookers’ as a unit of measure

I wouldn’t own that moneypit nightmare for free. ND.

This wasn’t worth $5 grand when it actually was worth $5 grand.  ND.

fixable...

there is literally no redeeming quality to this pig - its purple. has black wheels. is an orphan car. wasn’t best in class when new. not a good highschool kid car even if it were cheap enough. it’s absurdly overpriced. it’s heavily neglected. 2 grand for a part-out is this car’s best chance at not becoming a money hole…

gross.  ND

100%

to me this is either an $8K car or a $15K car, which means it’s a $6K car.

bottom crust isn’t any cleaner in following the rules - why turn this into a class warfare thing? 

ND. It’s absolutely cool. Absolutely too much money, but even if it were priced right, still ND. 1: It won’t fit in my modern suburban garage, and 2:  I can’t see getting all super thrilled to drive it on nice weather Fridays to work as much as almost any other ‘toy’ car I could think of.

was recently on the hunt for a Cougar version of this - nostalgia and all, as I’m a guy of a certain age for which this car pulls the old heartstrings.....  abandoned this idea for a few reasons - these cars rust A LOT - and I don’t feel like wrenching on rust.  And just as importantly, parts for these are a total…

came here to say this - “License Plate Thumb” - hard nope

been like this for years now...far too heavy with poorly laid out ads

I’ve already started growing out my mustache.
