I would happily keep this car below the limits (most of the time) if someone gave me a cracked frame GT40. Straight line acceleration can’t stress the frame too much, can it?

You can tell those people that “Basic Physics” only exists on an exam papers. In the real world, life is complicated. That’s why everything is so computerized these days, to compensate for more and more variables. When the computers work, everything works better and lasts longer. Unfortunately, there is more to go…
I’m in line with many of the commenters. You will NEVER ride in a car like this again. This generation was supposed to have a fantastic ride. This one is in museum quality condition. The car is bigger than most dorm rooms or New York apartments. Unless you’re living in it, though, that’s a lot of clams.
The bench seat is large and roomy, but it corners like a house!
I always figured that script writers are so stuck in their formulaic movies that they are out of touch with reality. Or maybe I should just stop watching movies.
The should have used Diet Coke or Coke One.
The one you’ve posted is original and collectable, and hasn’t been screwed all over. That definitely changes the formula. I’m not going to vote on this one, but if I was in the market I’d start here and ignore the 5-pack with double threes.
They are in the Banking Industry, and will simply sell one of them twice. This will look much better on their books.
My first thought for Nate is a Ford Flex. I don’t know how reliable they are, but they fit his other criteria. He’ll want to have the transmission checked out with over 100,000 on the odometer.
Your experience far exceeds mine. Extra stars for that last sentence, and for (likely) being a good instructor!
A successor would never pass the stupid, American ‘roof drop’ test.
There will always be variation of results on NPCP. Perhaps we are victims of price anchoring. Since the previous cars were so much more expensive, we might be more forgiving of this lower priced option. Or maybe there is more 80's nostalgia happening this year. I do know used German, Italian, and some Japanese classic…
I’m always surprised how many people think, “I’ve done it once and passed, so that’s enough.” I read the accident reports, and although filtered through FAA lingo, it’s surprising how many people crash from not having a clue, or they forget basic procedures when they become disoriented.
Research shows that training and practicing various emergency procedures is the way to go. That, and respect the conditions. Who has time for training and waiting for weather? Especially with family responsibilities.
A used Hertz rental car?
So they should all customize their emission standards to completely screw with the automotive engineers? That would be a dick move.
Or you could put a Vespa on the back of your car. (Photo credit to random Pinterest image) I’ve seen this car, and it’s twenty different kinds of awesome!
Actually, it’s very much his fault, since he lost control of his car and slid into the oncoming lane. Unless the article was edited, it says so right in the crash description.
Yep. Zipper doesn’t have 30 teeth on one side, and one a$$hole tooth on the other side. If people aren’t alternating it is NOT a zipper merge!
Not necessarily dead, but with shattered pelvis, femur, and back bones they’ll wish they were for months.
