That camera was mounted to a damn bobblehead doll.

“Thanks for playing though....”

Not sure if written as meta or not, but your story ironically makes sense.

“ a lot of decent condition drivers that sell for less than a low-mileage used Accord.”

They might be good cars, but for what they are they just look so wussy in all their proportions. Stylistically they’re like a sweater wrapped around the shoulders of a polo shirt.

I hope the wagoneers go up, for my brother’s sake. He has a crazy boner for those things and has the maroon-on-wood one everybody seems to like.

“Official Pace Car” editions of Monte Carlos are rare too, ya know. They also have the most vocal people predicting that their values will skyrocket; their owners, and no one else.

Oh that must have been a fun ride back to the dealership.

I’ve had so many Volvo 240s that just had the heater hoses bypassed. You have to basically be a car museum curator to do the heater core job on a Volvo, because you’re effectively disassembling the car. There are a dozen other jobs you might as well do while you’re in there, because you’re basically tunneling to the…

And I thought my twin bed fitting in the back was impressive.

I don’t think I’ve ever owned a car whose heater core wasn’t the center of the car. You’d figure auto designers would eventually learn not to put a guaranteed-to-fail part that will spew boiling-hot pancake syrup smelling liquid throughout the cabin in the hardest to reach part of the car, but they damn near all do.

Tell me that’s real

Yeah it really does seem like before 1960 chrome works way better. Then you see this and change your mind:

I don’t ‘tuse, as the kids say these days

Just imagine if a fish had evolved through the Jefferson Starship era and you’re there.

This is a general discussion about unquantifiable aesthetics and you’re busy telling us about specific production dates, missing the point entirely. Yeah, that’s pedantic as hell.

Well think about it: If you had basically killed a girl and gotten away with it, and were hiding from the shame, pretty much any mention of it would be brutal (and if he did what he did, he deserves it) but holy crap that’s like Ricky Gervais level trolling it being only three years past.

That was the proto-everything in terms of launching the ‘80s space age on land. Proto-futureflatfour(or six)spacemobile.

Damnit how have I never seen this? My brain is programmed to recognize new cars from 200 yards out and I live here for Christ’s sake.

Kinda pisses me off that my favorite aesthetic that I’ve been using for wheels for a decade and a half on my cars and motorcycles suddenly is a cliche. I abhor chrome because it’s flashy. Now apparently “so black you can’t see it” is flashy too.
