I use a different metric. In my head I use $350/mo for four years as a reasonable payment/term, assuming I’m paying less than 2.9%APR. That’s almost pocket change and the loan would be paid off before the car becomes a rapidly depreciating asset. So, I look at whatever my current vehicle is worth and decide if…

It’s the flag of losers, literally, in so many ways. 

What a coincidence -- the biggest rebates are set up to go to big old bro-dozers, the vehicle of choice for brain-dead MAGA bros. Shocking!

I never understood the logic of offering someone an EV rental and then sending them out into an unknown area, where they don’t know how the car works, how far it can go, and where to recharge (and how to hook it up/what it will cost/what plugs they can use). So many of my flights have me arriving at airports late at…

Tough call as this thing looks CLEAN, and you just don’t come across cars this old, this unique and this perfect very often. That said, it’s an also-ran nothing mobile from a low point in the car world. If it were a Celica or early Datsun truck, sure. But this? Reluctant ND, because someone took a lot of that car for…

Put Elon’s face on the mugs instead of the Tesla logo and I bet mug theft would drop off precipitously.

Seems a tad high but I always say its well worth it to pay a little more for really good condition. That said, this needs an in-person look and sniff to see if it’s worth that premium. But a manual Saab with a soft top? That whispers seductive thoughts in my ear...

To my ears, the “go F*ck Yourself” statement that Elon made sounds a lot like a legally binding and hard to misinterpret release of any advertising contract that a company might have had with X and its CEO.

No, they don’t deserve it. They’re horrible to drive, loud, and incredibly inefficient, but they’re also boatloads of fun and we humans often make irrational choices. We eat crap food, we date and marry people that are bad for us, we spend too much time watching TV and Instagram videos. So I think all the “things” are…

In my 50+ years on this planet I’ve learned that there’s a market for just about anything, no matter how odd, niche or tasteless (hello, TruckNutz). So I suspect that if you lived in an area that had enough of the older folks that might appreciate this, you could probably add this to your limo fleet and do some…

I’m a bit late to the party in suggesting a car for this list, but for me it starts and ends with the Honda CRX, particularly the first generation model in Si flavor. 

Man, and some of you worried about finding parts for yesterday’s Mercedes? It’d be far harder to source stuff for this thing, though it’s probably a moot point as this little guy looks like an absolute death trap, especially on windy and busy MA roads filled with distracted SUV drivers/texters. NP if you have a long…

I think this looks more humble and down-to-earth than the ego-stokers for sale at the dealership, and that simple honesty appeals to me. With the major work apparently done to the engine and transmission, the amazing care shown to this, and the relative simplicity of the systems, I’d say this easily has another 100K…

So, where’s the car? It clearly can’t be registered or titled, no collector is going to buy it, etc. Is it just going to be parted out, or is it in a shipping container on its way to Mexico?

Two things: First, it would take a special kind of stupid to have in your hands a six year old car with 989 miles on it and not think that the owner wouldn’t notice that you put 20, 10 or even 2 miles on it.

What a slap in the face to the hundreds of families that lost loved ones due to Boeing’s negligence, corporate greed and complete lack of remorse. Shameful.

Neat car and a great one for a 1980/90s car guy hobbyist/enthusiast to own and tinker with. It’s unique, looks to be in good shape (clearly mechanic owned) has the right motor and tranny, so why not? You just don’t see these anymore, and this one looks clean and unmolested. If it looks and drives good I bet you could…

Ugh, this one is why Corvette stereotypes exist. It’s seemingly modified for performance, but then it goes all Cybil in it’s personality with all-for-show chrome wheels, boomer pinstriping, “I wish I was a stingray” Stingray badges on the fenders, etc. It’s it a sports car? A cruiser? A cry for help? ND on this…

If your goal in life is to be completely invisible, this is your car. Good condition, nice enough price, easily has another 100K of miles in it so you might not even need to meet your local Toyota service rep. Just keep changing the oil and your handlers with the Witness Protection Service will be appreciative.

There’s a weight limit — if it’s under 250 grams you don’t have to register it.
