FD RX-7. The design still looks fresh today:

Not a Corvette guy, but in my opinion the C3 was and always will be an absolute stunner. 

The Honda Element was pretty divisive when it came out, with some loving its functional utility and others calling it ugly, unfinished, and looking like a refrigerator box. I thought it was brilliant then, and even more desirable now with the fold-up rear seats, b-pillarless suicide doors for easy loading, hose it out

You can almost pretty much guess the age range of each submitter based on their choices.

There Shall be no C7 Slander here. I will allow light slander of the base C6 until you get to the Z06 and Zr1

I was a late convert to the C7 Corvette. I loathed it right up until the C8 came out. All of a sudden, the C7 was a design masterpiece. Looking at it with fresh eyes, it’s properly aggressive, low, and angular. It does still look like the front and back were designed by two different people, but at least it looks like

I hope the readers here take note of the surnames and ancestry of the road workers who lost their lives here. Almost a year ago to the day (March 23, 2023) 6 workers were killed on another part of the 695 beltway when a car crashed through a work zone, and most of those workers were also from central America,

More toe-in-cheek than anything

Oooof. This thing is so rough... but $6k has my cheap bastard sensibilities going haywire! It has good parts support, the mileage is okay, and the problems I’m seeing seem surmountable. Screw it, nice price!

Goofy styling, a weird color combo, and a nonworking top...appears to be good reasons to avoid. But seems to be in excellent shape besides the ragtop, and I’m willing to bet racking up 200,000 miles on a 13 year-old car means a lot of those miles got accumulated as highway miles. And highway miles when you’re cruising

Counterpoint: A Miata, especially a basic trim of this generation, is a very finite money pit that people of ordinary means and reasonable DIY skills can hope to successfully fill. And neglected but not thrashed or “upgraded”... you can do worse as a Before picture for either a restoration or a racing project. In

Funny how the setting in which the car is photographed can tell me as much about the neglect this car has endured than pictures of the car itself. Judging by the weeds creeping through the driveway cracks, the dirty garage door, and the unkempt bushes that are literally resting on the canvas top, I’d say this Miata

Crank windows? NP.

people who think a manual transmission prevent phone use were obviously not in their teens-20s when smartphones were a thing. 

Almost $47k for a fucking Camry?

Even if they do - they don’t teach impulse control.

Happens all the time, unfortunately.  Do they teach personal finance in schools yet?  They sure as hell didn’t when I was in school.  And my parents were simply a lesson in what-not-to-do.

My level of financial responsibility went up dramatically when I just... started checking my bank account balances regularly. And subsequently, my level of cash reserves, credit scores, and financial independence went up shortly after.

Excluding the cab where there’s room for two people, I just find it utterly amazing how Chevy engineers were able to fold an ICE car and an EV into that same tight package.  I’d like to see an E-ray in person just to check out how they wedged everything in there.  Kudos, Chevy.
