My 2nd car and first manual was an 85. Mom drove an 88. I’ve driven the V6 model and generally been in many of these spanning the period of time thewse infested the roads.
Current GTI’s with the manual have an intermittent stalling problem. Should be avoided until VW addresses root cause
All BMW’s this age should probably be considered salvage.
Reason why I stand at first opportunity.Trains and planes
I understand that the reviewer isn’t in the target demographic for this kind of device so a couple suggestions for future reviews of this class of watch.
It’s perfect for it target demographic. Buick steering and a pure numbers car that is meant to look good and pull on other street cars.
There a a couple of nice Vr4's in 300ZX in my neighborhood that get me a bit nostalgic for that time period but the thought of dealing with vacuum lines on a close to 30 year old Nissan (or Mitsubishi) twin turbo give me the aches.
Unfortunately, shelling out for a new windshield on a regular basis amounts to an FJ Cruiser tax..
I wont be functional for long. Engines suck balls in that thing and most of the ones on the market are the ancient ones with the endurance of trump fucking a 15 year old model at epsteins
Civs are allowed and that f16 is likely the ancient a model. That thing is primitive as all hell and would basically only be used as a target drone at best .. decades ago. 60s era phantoms are more deadly than that f16. That’s how simple that old thing is. It’s basically a really fun and fast sop with camel.
These make for the ultimate North East city cars. It’s shorter (length) than a Mini Cooper so everywhere is a parking spot. It has ground clearance when the plows dumb snow mounds everywhere. It’s actually pretty good off road. Gas mileage is decent. Easy to fix and service. Fold the rear seats down and you can carry…
Real world OTD pricing will be 80k to 90k and this design is going to be short lived.
Bunch of guys worried about practicality vs a bunch of people who won’t buy them but like feeling elitist about a car that is only gonna sell about 9000 copies before being cancelled.
This story hits close to home as a state trooper ran a red light, crashed into the car carrying my wife and child resulting in it being totalled. He got his buddies to show up at our house the following day to issue my wife tickets saying she was driving like a psycho and ran a red light.
Thus thing bot only excels as an off roader, it's perfect as a city car. This thing fits everywhere and is super maneuverable
Had an 87 during the early 2000s. Several of my friends had these things over the years from different model years.
Owned an 87 with 2.9 and 5spd.
Problem is that A10s are not survivable once you fight someone other than a bunch of pissed of militia and civilians. They are counter insurgency aircraft and that been their mission for ages. Last time they had to fight a real war they got chased up to 20000 feet along with f111s and f16s and lobbed missiles like…
