1st Gear: Gettin’ Tough

Except it’s really not is it.
They just basically said they want it to happen and proposed no means of actually getting it to pass emissions and making it happen

As a near-shut in who is pale enough to burn at the mere mention of sun, a roof is an important factor when I’m buying a car. The lack of a good looking spacious hardtop with a hatchback is what kept me out of the Miata and put me in an RX-7. Sad fact, but it’s still a fact.

I actually think an iron duke might be more environmentally friendly than a rotary. You ever seen a rotary run catless? they just BELCH soot and flame like nobodies business.

My dad’s basement contains no fewer than 2 Nailheads, 4 Turbo 400's, and enough first gen Riviera parts to fully restore a couple of shells Even though his Riv is fully restored and running strong.

I’m rapidly getting to that point with FC RX-7 parts.

We could probably be the subject of a father/son featured episode of…

I hadn’t thought of that! IF ONLY AL GORE HAD STOPPED ME!

same here.

It’s not perfect, but with a list like that nothing will be. The closest I could think of was the Opel Insignia wagon.

assuming you never quit working, survive long enough, and get really lucky at an auction, you may be able to procure one just before the heat death of the universe.

I’m on the verge of putting a turbo 4 pot in an RX-7 and turning my oil burning, fuel guzzling 13bRE into a table.
NAME ONE SCENARIO IN WHICH THAT IS BAD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT!
MY MODS ARE GONNA CLEAN SHIT UP!

Those aftermarket seats, BBS wheels, and what would certainly appear to be a lowered suspension tell me that this car has had an easy life and hasn’t been hooned and hammered on at all. It only has 92,000 miles on it’s 1980's BMW engine (which we all know are stupidly cheap to rebuild when they wear out) and I’m sure…

Because the LSJ can take stupid amounts of boost on stock internals, or you can leave it alone and still do pretty good for yourself.
The LSJ gives you a wide range of relatively simple options that get you from 200-450 HP all depending on how much time and money you’re willing to spend. From what I’ve seen you can…

yes but we’re in a comment thread discussing a comment soooooo...

except it does

How can the sales be dropping off due to lack of youth interest as the poster Drakkon- Iceberg Slim claims.

Bishop Airport in Flint Michigan is super chill too.
The lines are ultra short. The place is small and the pace is relaxed. Best of all they don’t hassle you in security if you bring a bunch of homemade tamales wrapped in aluminum foil..

My entire point is that people “age out of the demographic that’s not currently buying them.”

Th OP of this thread posited that muscle cars weren’t selling because they don’t market to youth, I called bullshit because the youth is interested, but can’t afford these cars to begin with. If they are having a significant…

can confirm
Every time I see a coilover fail either the cylinder suddenly cracks and leaks it’s oil all over or the spring retainer fails and the car gets a pretty big dent in the fender.

All the way to the left and next to first with a pull tab lockout. Tell me if you can find a better location PROTIP: YOU CAN’T.

He was trying to get them down to under 35. He said he got close, but he just couldn’t justify the extra money tacked on since 35 was his absolute maximum set point.

Yeah I’ll probably buy a used SS in the next few years. I probably won’t wait as long as you and will go for something a little lower mileage to spoil…

Yeah I thought that was pretty lame. One of my friends was all geared up to buy one until the dealer wouldn’t go any lower on the price.
