I’ve said it before and it bears repeating: buying a car is an emotional decision. Your brain is involved but only because that’s where all the serotonin-oozing neurons live.

Don’t be thinking small. Think BIG. Think Continental. Think New Yorker. Think Delta 88. Tbink about all those smooth-riding malaise-yachts with 150 horsepower lumps. Imagine doubling or tripling the power of one of those things and gliding along in silent splendor...
Mustang? We should be so lucky. You know KITT will be a crossover.
Correction: the S2000 is the better Miata.
Counterpoint... maybe we need to talk less about Elon Musk.
When you get down to it, AMC failed not because of products, but because of money. They just didn’t have the money to compete with the big boys. If they had scraped together maybe a decade more, they might have survived and not Chrysler, because of Jeep. A lot of the legendary Jeeps that Chrysler made bank on,…
I wouldn’t deal with this thing if you gave it to me for free.
With the SD4 under the engine cover a Fiero can flat out eat a Camaro’s lunch.
I’m not a lawyer or a civil engineer, but if I had to guess, I would say it means they have to cease operations (aka, open the gates, and cease power generation if hydroelectric) and/or they can no longer get insurance for exactly the kind of failure that happened here. They would either have to repair their defects…
I was almost onboard, ready to hit the NP button.. and then I got to the interior pic.. oh gawd
YOU. You are why I Jalopnik. Please don’t ever think no one reads your comments. I got home and thought... Hey, that’s an Aussie Ford. They are probably classics now. Then you confirmed it. That’s why Jalopnik can’t die. Even if I have to drive to NYC and rescue it myself.
ESP = European Sport Pack
I’m not a conservative. I can, and do, think for myself. I also don’t need any seeds so I have no dog in this fight. Since you seem to need it spelled out for you, there are entire websites dedicated to this type of political BS. This shouldn’t be one of them.
I’m a Renault fanboy (and french car enthusiast in general) so I had to go and search for pics of some of my favorite Renault 3 lug wheels:
I think at last count I had somewhere around 13 different car’s (and truck’s) parts on my 67 Dart. Some of those have even been removed and replaced by other parts that still aren’t for a Dart. I’ll see if I can’t make the list:
Many. Different types too. The car is a Peugeot. Engine from a Lancia. Intercooler from a BMW. And on and on.
Oh man, so many cars. My current E34 530it has a hood and passenger front door from one car, a nose panel from another car, each bumper is from a different car, a fender from another car, seats from another car, and I’m currently collecting a black interior for it from two separate cars in the junkyard. That being…
My E36 M3 racecar has parts from SO many other cars. Jeez. This is a fun thought process.
Technically zero? It’s downright near impossible to find a Sterling 827 SLi in a junkyard but thankfully early Acura Legends aren’t so rare. It has many other junkyard oddity parts as well, such as a 80s Pioneer head unit found in a Geo Tracker and a coolant expansion tank from a B5 VW Passat. So I suppose the total…
You’re not wrong, but Ken didn’t start racing until he was like 36, so he was never going to be on par with the Sebs.
