I don’t care for Mercedes, and hate convertibles in general, but this is actually a really great car at a very reasonable price.

I still want to get one as a project, is there something wrong with me?

Improper tire pressure strikes again!

True, but to be fair, I’ve never seen a suspension setup that I looked at and said “Man, I can’t wait to get that up on a lift and replace all those parts!”

The ridiculous simplicity of it makes it all the much better.

I like it way more than I should.

Real original guys.

A-10 Attack on the Mac was my jam back in the day.

When the dream is translated into reality you will end up with a next generation Predator/Reaper Drone with a couple Hellfire missiles. Lame, but the most probable outcome.

Depends how close you are, and which directions those rounds are flying :)

I’m going to pine over this one a bit and get back to you.

And then when energy shields are developed they will pull the A-10 out of retirement because BRRRRRRT!

Having seen these glorious bastards work up close early in the Iraq War (‘03), I will always have a big soft mushy spot for the A-10.

I don’t disagree, as I have modified brand new vehicles in the past (and thus voided some or all of the warranty), but I certainly don’t recommend it to anyone that may not have the means to bite the bullet and pay for repairs out of warranty while still making a car payment.

I think you are confusing sportscars and supercars a little, but I get your point.

I’ve owned a 1975 Monte Carlo and a 1978 Datsun B210, I have no problem with older cars. Old shitty cars that have been ruined by custom coachwork companies are another story entirely.

I dig old cars, and don’t mind relatively unsafe ones, this one is something special though. Right up there with the Euthanasia Coaster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthanasia_Coaster

And that is globaly including many countries that have very few cars on the road (or even roads to begin with!).

I find origami to be peaceful and calming.

Just because I am paranoid doesn’t mean 1980's Fuji Heavy Industries is not out to get me!
