I’m feeling optimistic today, so I went NP assuming this goes to an Alfa devotee who knows what lies ahead. All others should run away. But this is the kind of vote that requires a middle option. Nice Dice?

Worst case, which seems pretty likely, you drive it until something breaks and then part it out. NP.

Sadly, in this market, which is still atrocious and abysmal, NP.

That Spider looks pretty fly, I went NP. But let’s make that contingent...hope there’s not much more of this underneath.

Good to see a Ferrari performing at factory spec even after all these years.

I can see that horrible interior color. I think they called it “saddle.” They did vinyl tops and rub strips and even wheels in that same color, and they would pair it with red, navy, even green. Absolutely hideous.

For the very small market segment that needs a solid platform for their dream project, a sleeper Zephyr Z-7, NP. For the rest of us, ND.

With the top up and the lights popped, it looks like a frog wearing a hoodie. ND.

I irrationally dig it. The best-looking body style, a great ’70s color. ND. 

Had me until the mileage. Whatever gossamer threads are holding this thing together must be near the breaking point. ND.

I am very sorry the seller went to all that trouble.

Imagine taking this to shows, and the deflating process of explaining what it really is. The only plus being that most people would walk away before you got to the most humiliating moment, popping the hood.

Into early adulthood, there was a fire truck that would always set my heart racing. It was an American LaFrance pumper, probably late ’60s vintage, with the most glorious exhaust note. At close range, it would vibrate your innards. The town was nestled in a gentle valley with just enough steepness to bounce the sound…

If they had to mod it, they should have stopped with the paint. Even at that, nearly $7K is a bit high for the miles and age. ND.

It has a weird, quasi-steampunk aesthetic, which I like much better than the goofy-looking Polaris Slingshot. But it’s such a toy. $23K is just too much.

I know it’s Buffalo, but should there be that level of rust on a high-end 12-year-old car that doesn’t have nosebleed mileage on it? And why only in that spot? A substandard fender repair? That plus all the pitfalls of a used BMW equals ND.

There are some relatively new roads just outside Great Smoky Mountains National Park, around Gatlinburg, that are insane. You won’t get up any speed, but they’re less than two car widths with endless hairpin turns and no guardrails. I can’t imagine driving them in the dark or with snow or ice. And they’re packed with…

I much preferred the T-Bird, especially the ’87 refresh that looked less bulbous.

I loathed this era of severely squared-off rooflines, but if it doesn’t bother you, here’s a livable runner that’s unique enough for your local C&C for less than $5K. Easy NP.

Aside from the emissions, other little bothersome things. The old tires. The license plate frame...is the seller advertising his business, or has this car had a long, strange trip? ND.
