Yep, we are smog only. Strange because Texas, which we all know is the heart of freedom, has had mandatory annual state inspections for donkeys years and they even make you put these ugly ass stickers on your windshield. And then they pull you over for going 5 mph over the speed limit.
There’s two problems I see here. You have those priorities backwards and you need to be aiming higher, go for the 16v, not the 8v Integrale.
Well then you better do your job and go buy it. What if somebody who didn’t love these cars ends up with it? How could you live with yourself?
Ha. Well this particular one seems to be very well cared for with a full service history, a recent PPI and it’s a rust-free CA car, so I feel pretty good about it. If I didn’t already have too many german cars sitting in the driveway and private tuition to pay, I’d buy this one myself.
Given that the buy-it-now is 24.5k, it would take a real moron to pay 50k for it.
Yeah you’re right, I was thrown off because the tank and the seat look very much like the first-gen Ducati monsters, but that is definitely a twin spar aluminum frame now that I look at it on an actual computer. Maybe it’s the seat and tank from a Monster on the frame and engine of a previous-gen R1?
Sadly I think very few of us around these parts are old enough to realize just how amazing that is. From a time when it was ok to be funny and not PC. Literally not “PC” in this example.
Too many comments to check through, but the Ducati Monster 796 would be a good choice. It has a very forgiving power band yet still has some grunt to it, it has great brakes, it’s very comfortable, and is still cool.
If you add a “Y” to both of those, it makes it even funnier.
I believe “fuccboi” is the preferred spelling these days.
I think we’re on the same page. I personally don’t use it for that either, but since we are both posting on Jalopnik, we probably feel very differently about cars than does the general populace.
You’re not too old, you’re just in the minority who don’t use social media. Here’s a fun fact: Facebook makes more money from ads on mobile devices than does Google. Facebook advertising is seriously some of the highest ROI you can find. It wouldn’t be so popular if it weren’t working well. And because it is very…
Many Countaches were already legal in CA, so there is no need to federalize or bring it into CA, it’s already been done by Lamborghini back in the day.
I’m with Jim. There was absolutely nothing about this car that was ahead of its time. It’s just a car with weird windows.
Definitely looks like it’s off a Ducati SSS bike.
My wife used to have one. It is a fine car. I do hate the touchscreen display though. But in the list of grievances, I doubt that would even make my festivus list.
