    Perhaps, but in the end you have a slow little car that no one has ever heard of, and if you load it up it will be even slower. I’m sure it would be popular at the Thursday night cruises (because - different),  but I can think of a whole bunch of other cars I would rather spend this kind of money on.

    You can get a pretty nice old style Mini for that price, and they are probably a hell of a lot more fun. 

    OK, time to ‘fess up. Many years ago I had a stack of 2x4's strapped to the top of my (company, I would never have bought one) Plymouth Volare’ wagon. I thought they were tied down pretty good until I had a light suddenly turn red. Yup, 2x4's all over the damn road. it was like a comedy movie, they just wold not stop,

    Here’s one. I was a car jockey at Towson Ford back in the day. They had just finished prepping a Mustang 390 GT (which had been a “demo” used by the dealership’s owner), and sent me down to the car wash as the car was to be sold that afternoon. On the way back, the car caught fire. Firefighters came, and then we

    NOOOOO!!!! I LOVE SMARTIES!!!!!!

    The RAV 4 is probably the car the driver will use to return himself to his origin, after he delivers the other trucks. This eliminates the need for a case car to pick him (or her) up. The driver is just lucky to have a dump truck that will fit the RAV4 , or he would have had to arrange other transportation home.

    Not to get too far off subject, but I was once in a Burger King drive through when all of a sudden the car I was in started to overheat. I had no way out. I was stuck behind several cars, and there were several cars behind me. It’s a horrible, horrible feeling to overheat in a situation like this. I understand your

    Guess I’ll give you guys a call the next time I swing through NYC. You think the RX7 is analog, wait until you get a ride in my TR8.

    Guy in our neighborhood up in Maryland had one of these. I had forgotten how cool they were. We were kind of in Farm country, and most everyone had some kind of four or three wheeler. This one seemed the most fun.

    Yeah, me too. Never seen ANY of his movies. Oh, well.

    Interesting coincidence. I just finished reading “The Saint of Wolves and Butchers” by Alex Grecian. The basic premise is that a Nazi war criminal escaped to Kansas, where there were sympathizers to help him. He proceeded to basically take over the entire town by starting a church. Quite a book.

    I think you can get bronze Duct Tape at Home Depot.

    CP simply because of, well, the price. There is one of these in a bright yellow that sits in a nearby front yard and I keep waiting to see a “For Sale” sign on it. Yes, they were extreme when they were new, and then came some of the stuff out of Nissan and Toyota that made these look conservative.

    Low mileage cars are cool, and all, but they are not necessarily good buys. My Father tells the story of way back in the 50's where he bought a ‘53 Chevy because it had very few miles on it. Understand, this was for a daily driver. He remembers the car as the worst car he has ever bought. Stuff started breaking on it

    We have two people in our British Car Club who still drive around in the cars theyr bought back in the day. One is an early MGA and the other is an E Type roadster. Both cars are used regularly by their owners.

    Our local auto parts stores tried this $10 for your old battery thing. They were shut down by the state government for some reason. Of course, it’s Florida.

    CP without even reading the entire article. I am sure there is a place for behemoths like this, but GM felt that way about the Hummer, too, and look how that turned out. Total waste of time and money. Better to spend it on a ACTUAL penis enlargement.

    To be fair, there are several of these running around down here in my neck of the woods. Most are in pretty nice shape so they can take them to the almost daily cruises.

    How could you have missed this one?

    You guys out there are really geting boring. Send that over to the Way Back @ Jalopnic .com (facebook page), and I’ll bet you get a different answer.
