Hard to tell if some of that is alcantara.  Regardless, I’ve noticed alcantara has been a luxury item as of late.  Doesn’t it age horribly and crumble/flatten over time?

Being it’s was an impromptu situation, good odds that the taco truck did not have a permit for that specific location.

I understand their desire to do it - having a Taco Truck there somehow, weirdly, legitimizes it for others and would create more a festival feel to the stupidity.

You should get an SVT Mustang Cobra. I couldn’t find one after a brief search in Mystichrome, but maybe you can. This one, for $8,000 seems perfectly suitable though. It’s an automatic, and makes 390 horsepower.

First and foremost I have always had an irrational soft spot for these. I actually tried to buy one for my daughter’s first car in the last couple months.

A Ferrari collection?

It’s remarkable just how much more appeal a used car has when someone has taken some time to modestly clean it. It’s even better when a car looks like it has obviously been cared for. I can’t think of how many car ads I’ve seen whee the pictures work against the seller’s intentions.

I kind of want to know what the 157 (currently) people who voted CP on this one think it’s worth.  Or what they expect for $2,000.  This is a NP all freaking day.  

This might be the cleanest engine of any 200k mile car I’ve ever seen.

2k, with a manual, clean bodywork, and moves under its own power.  NP.

Ironic to mention the 996's “plasticky hellscape” interior and then say “you don’t have to look at it from the driver’s seat.” Searching for an affordable Porsche, my budget allowed for a 996 or a 987. Unable to get past those damn headlights and miserable interior, I chose the latter.

They have been trained for Teslas and Nissan Leafs for a decade, and hybrid cars for even longer. It’s absurd to even believe the fire department can’t handle an electrical fire. It’s silly, even.

I cannot applaud you enough for shopping for a fun convertible and having the good sense to say no to a Miata, the pumpkin spice latte of convertibles

Well, if you don’t want a Miata, I can’t really help you, but this might:

Make sure your winter doesn’t include salt on the roads. These are built from compressed rust with a salt soluble binder and oxidize savagely.

How much you want to bet they still made him wait for his boarding group number to be called before he could get on the plane?

This is crazy coincidental. I have the exact same car - color and all, about to go up for sale. I was going to list at $15,400 (reasonable offers accepted). Mine is an 09 (exactly the same as the 08 really - build date is Nov 08), same interior, same black grill swap, but zero mods ever, adult owned (this was my third…

How have the 1 Series coupes held up in terms of reliability?

That’s the video game one. It’s supposed to be a joke/parody/for the lols.

All 372 of the 250 produced showed up to the 100th anniversary of the 911.
