Two of the drivers in the BTCC this year are Daniel Rowbottom and Jack Goff.

My brother-in-law owns a Galaxie 500. The plate is MLKYWAY.

I’m actually shopping for used Hondas (or Toyotas), and this one is several grand into, “No Dice” territory.

The worst one I remember was the one in my 2000 Kia Sephia. I don’t know if it was one of the Mazda B-series or Kia’s TBD, but it got poor mileage while producing little power. My recent replacement of the mass flow sensor seemed to be helping, but it was totalled last week when an idiot turned into my lane while I

This one may not be not be nasty, but it is mysterious. We lost the remote to the TV. Several years later, it turned up in the trunk of our car. We didn’t even own this car when we lost the remote.

I have to agree with the OP: a hatchback is the way to go (preferably my old Civic). It’s was sporty enough to be fun, big enough to haul camping gear for the weekend, and efficient enough to get 40 MPG doing it.

This thing may be a hot mess of someone else’s project car, but if you want a Lotus 7 clone you aren’t getting it any cheaper. If that’s your jam, NP.

Now playing

I loves me some Springsteen. (Funny how many of these songs are about Cadillacs, isn’t it?)

I think I see the play that Gambit Energy Storage is going for. I think they intend to buy electricity when the grid is under capacity (it’s cheap), and sell it when the grid is close to capacity (more expensive).

I’ve always had a soft spot for the styling on the Retro Bird, but not for ten grand. Maybe for eight.

It’s an interesting idea, but it doesn’t take full advantage of the interior space offered by the vehicle. We need to have the first endurance racing series where all drivers must stay within the vehicle for the duration of the race! (Or at least while the vehicle is on-track.)

It’s never a good sign when the seller sounds like starts throwing around advertising phrases from Franklin Mint (or whoever) commercials like, “...will only increase in value!” Thanks, but I’m not paying $10 for $2.50 in quarters and I’m not buying this car either. No dice.

No Dice here, but is very much a, “I’m not in that market” as opposed to, “That’s far more than market value.”

GT3 is everywhere, isn’t it? All the SRO series, IMSA (Weathertech and Michelin), Creventic... are there any sportscar series that don’t have a GT3 class? It’s not going away soon.

Can we get one with a whale penis leather interior?

They did a follow up with HyperShift color crystals over the black.

And, thank God, failing.

Both the Valencia and Singapore F1 circuits have bridges, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
