Now I’m normally not one to disagree with the great poet Sir Mix-a-Lot, but this just has too much junk in the trunk.

Side mirror is always what gets me. I used to think auto-dimming exterior mirrors were a ridiculous luxury, but I’ve come around to acknowledge that they should probably be standard equipment on everything.
This rules. Little angry cars hustling like this always makes me smile.
I find classic car racing way more interesting to watch than other motorsport. Touring Car Masters is also spectacular. Too bad it’s a very expensive and very niche thing, I would love to see one of these races in person.
I somehow misread the text in the lead image as “Concealed Rocket Launchers”, which feels like it might have surprised me even less than the fact that, of all places, they chose the steering wheel as the location for the cigarette dispenser.
Magical. It has a delightful jank to it, I’m reminded of:
Plus, if at any point it kills you, you’re automatically ready for the funeral!
I dig it. Too bad they never offered it with a stick. Big ol’ V8, actually pretty nice interior, RWD? Would make a neat enthusiast sedan (that ever coveted market)
I agree, I think this is actually a pretty handsome car when it’s not all blinged out. With the flares and those wheels but also the sort of simple aesthetics, this looks a bit badass and a bit refined. It works nicely.
This would be NP for maybe... half the price, because all that cosmetic shit the previous owner is proud/ashamed of has to go. Strip it to the bare interior, remove gaudy chrome, respray, and you’ve got a very clean Trans Am. But not at that price, if only because I can’t stomach looking at it.
Neat car, but too many red flags. And definitely too rich for such a shady seeming deal.
So much torque, the chassis twisted coming off the line.
I don’t care about Forza at all and oh man I want this. It gives me tingles I haven’t felt since Whiplash Racing.
Oh the humanity!
I hope he has a 2x4 badge on the trunk
You say that like it’s a bad thing!
I love this so much. I wish this is what car restorations eventually resulted in: I don’t even care how fast you go, or if you build a machine that’s designed to do it, I just want to see rad cars doing rad stuff. Way more interesting than a car show where they’re just sitting in a parking lot.
The rotary dial is less awful than the ‘return to center’ shifter in the article, but it’s still not as good as a traditional shift lever. I’m very rarely uncertain about what gear I’m in with a traditional lever, but when using a dial shifter I found I had to visually confirm every time I changed. It just seems like…
