For 7 years, I drove a Saturn LS1 (remember "The next big thing from Saturn") stick. Used a Saab 5-speed from the GM parts bin, and it was said to shift better in the Saturn due to a simpler linkage. Great car and fun to drive.

When an eBay auction ends without meeting reserve, isn't that the ultimate crowdsourced CP verdict?

200 hp in a mid-engine car that weighs 2000 lb?

I drove one in college and it was fun and stood up to abuse. Admirably handled New England winters, too. We later bought my wife a used Mk4 Jetta and it was a disaster. More solid, sure. But less fun and less reliable.

I remember a Saab commercial, probably from the '80s, that used images like this to explain why FWD made sense. Can't find it just now online but perhaps somebody will...

Kinja?

How about the staff at Legoland replacing their boss's Volvo with a Lego replica?

One of the greats - Car Talk trying to understand what's wrong with this guy's government vehicle.

My daily driver sold so poorly (in the US, anyway) that my kids still get excited when they see another one on the road.

THIS.

Looks a bit Mechanical Turk to me...

Comb-Rover?

The taillights are too high. Reflectors need to be close to the level of the following car's headlights — I think there are federal mandates for height. That's why you see so many cars with separate reflectors in the area of the rear bumper. (E.g. my wife's Nissan Quest)

When this badge-engineered SUV launched, didn't Infiniti try to convince us all that the name is pronounced "Kyoo-by-four"?

Both manufacturer name and model name trip everyone.

But who would want to take all that German craziness off?

Saab's been mentioned a few times, but I'll nominate one of their production cars. In 1984, the Saab 9000 seemed amazing.

Agree.

Two variations on the Porche 914 pickup. The orange one was a factory 914/6.

Engage front air suspension to improve reception of Satellite Radio. Duh.
