I do not disagree with this take, nor do I disagree with Pit Pat’s attempt to bring nuance to my previous statement, which I understand could be viewed as hyperbolic or narrow in focus. Cheers to you both - it was not my intent to come off as confrontational, and I think we all agree that people can suck and be

I respect your point of view, but I would argue that cops are a ways off from being “just bureaucrats” hustling for a paycheck. Most of us engage in some level of bureaucracy in our everyday work lives without causing others undue harm. And most of us lack the power to ruin or end another person’s life, and be shielded

Can you imagine being so completely and unflinchingly willing to fuck up someone’s life for a job with a median salary of ~$50 - $60k, just because somebody told you to? Proof positive that police don’t police from a desire to do good, but because they are sociopaths who enjoy doing harm.

Ad is already gone. $7,500 is an okay price, but the AMG badges and roof box that looks like a camping toilet need to go. This would look a million times better with a longer and sleeker roof box, or simply removed from its Florida-beige McMansion hell.

Or maybe just use the image recognition and AI search features on that latest and greatest phone. But no, I need a stranger on the internet to tell me what I’m looking at.

If this meant to be a jab at r/whatisthiscar, then kudos. By far the most annoying subreddit to start showing up in my feed.

$13,500 is bonkers for this Amphetamine Dream Machine. I don’t necessarily hate it, mind you, but it would look really out of place parked in front of my house. ND.

You lost bro? Let me help you out:

This guy’s eccentric shaft must be huge.

Genuinely didn’t know that Toyota kept the Paseo around until 1997. I do remember these and the Hyundai Scoupe being popular for a hot minute and then falling off hard. It’s neat seeing one in this condition, but it isn’t for me. I wouldn’t harsh on anyone who picked this up for nostalgia reasons, or just to have a

This is a rare exception to the rule of “don’t buy somebody else’s project”. If I were going to build one of these, this is probably the direction I’d take it. The selling price is hard to beat and you’d come out ahead on parts and labor (either your labor or paying for someone else’s). NP.

The del sol holds a special place in my heart because it was my first car through high school and early college. That said, I can’t imagine paying $25k for one even if it has the “did’ja know that in Japan...” trans top. Even ignoring the price for a second, the trans top is unnecessarily complicated and surely adds a

I could be wrong, but that looks an awful lot like an RX-7 FC with extensive body work. The window and what remains of the original B pillar look similar enough, but hard to tell without seeing more.

There’s some nice work here and those rolled fenders are sick, but the asking price is way too high. And I’m saying that as someone who ranks the P1800 (particularly the ES) very high on their list of attainable dream cars. Pristine concourse-ready examples can be found near that price. Big Nope.

Personally, I insist on being able to slip around like an otter on a water slide, while getting blinded from sunlight reflecting off every possible surface at the same time.

Shocked that the 4EAT transmission made it to 166k unless it’s been replaced already. When it goes (and it will) just have an STI unit ready to go in it. $3,700 isn’t that painful for someone looking for a project, so NP.

If this weren’t so far away I’d be very interested. She’s a little rough around the edges and the speaker box + amp might be indicators of hacked up wiring somewhere, but this is throwaway money for an otherwise decent 850.

This is really cool and appears to be very well executed. Even with that being said, I still wouldn’t want it at that price. First, I have no idea what I’m looking at or getting into. This is now more kit car than original MG. Second, it seems like the seller is banking on the Caroll Shelby provenance being true,

I always thought of these as America’s Jenson Interceptor, but I’d give the win to the Interceptor as the better-looking car. The Avanti I would make that a harder contest though. These have always fascinated me because it was such an audacious and well-executed attempt at resuscitating a brand that was against the

Anything fast, expensive, and rented. Specifically any influencer dipshit with a one-day ticket for a Lambo or Ferrari. They either need to be in every lane at once, bouncing off the rev-limiter at every red light, or just stopping in the worst places for photos of their idiot selves next to a car that clearly isn’t
