You can get a hell of a lot more car than the Supra today for 50 grand,

That was a great video. That top fuel driver was actually presenter-level, which isn’t what you see very often.

You need to keep in mind that for at least a decade 1994-96 Impala SSs, which are as close as a recent Chevy gets to the SS, were fetching some serious money from collectors and/or Rolex rednecks. Check again now, and most of those are seriously beat up, and even the clean ones that aren’t under $10,000 never sell.

Yep. He’s a teenage male. He’s going to fuck that car up. Only via a very long series of miracles did I escape my teenage years alive.

Oh c’mon the X has more cargo capacity and seems to have a more useable third row, which, incidentally, won’t rip your face off if the driver stomps the ludicrous pedal and catapults you into the harnesses like in the Model S.

I really wish there was more back story to this so we really knew where the guy was coming from (life-wise). Frankly we’re all the same as Jordan, probably. We all like cars. We all were probably fascinated by vehicles from birth. Most of us probably have a project car. But that’s nowhere near the whole of who we

Yeah that’ll mess with you alright. That’s basically a car guy’s worst nightmare: killing a friend and totaling two irreplaceable vintage cars all at the same time.

Oh God I love that car. Even if the dude got arrested later if I recall (if I’m wrong internet law states I’ll be corrected in 10 seconds). Just so much fun, with a better-than-a-60s-Cadillac suspension softness.

I bought a 1983 Volvo 240 wagon in 2000 from my friend I’d known since the start of high school. I was maybe 20 at the time. Turns out this was his family’s car since it was brand new. He’d ridden in the back as a kid.

In this case them saying that a common thing was in fact unusual is their version of “We don’t know things, per se.”

You’re right those headlights on the right do look fantastic.

That does sound pretty fantastic, but considering it sounds so much like the V10 F1 cars of the Schumacher era, it’s always disappointing, because you want to hear that thing add another 8,000rpm. It might sound good on its own, but it also sounds like you’re lugging Schuey’s Benetton, like when he was stuck in 5th

I love that it ran fantastic to 250,000 miles and then one day a structural member that should last 1,000 years broke in half.

These kinds of guys are living a dream where they’ve discovered a customer base with ultimate financial headroom. Those customers can pay waaaaay more than you’d figure the car is worth, because of a modicum of factors, from ludicrous fit and finish to just pure exclusivity. So you end up with a couple very niche car

Just assume that by Cavalier they meant S10

Hey now that’s still a low 14 second large sedan in 2000, so tough to rag on it.

C63 doesn’t have wide tires (275s out back?), and it makes well over 400lb-ft of torque.

Not a big fan of blaming “the unions” and then it turns out you really meant the leader of the union, and you’re throwing the whole thing under the bus.

That would explain why they can flip like 15 times across a football field, but for tossing a 110lb cheerleader up into the air it seems a bit much. I’m on the field every week during college football season and yeah, every one of the male cheerleaders could be mistaken for a running back if they put a uniform on. 

Well truth be told, if you support Republican politicians, you’re cool or at least ambivalent about racism, hatred of immigrants, demonization of the poor, stripping away of personal rights, destruction of the environment, fighting workers’ unions and fighting wage hikes, and giving rich people money for free, as long
