For once, all very good suggestions.

If he was originally doing this just to prove his wife was having an affair (which she was) and have evidence of it for legal action, I don’t think it was creepy at all (which is why she originally only got $1). Pretty sure if she’d had done the same thing to prove his infidelity, everyone would be just fine with it.…

I don’t think you can ask $9,000,000 and say it’s not about the money. Sure, justice should be served, and a lawsuit for compensation for damages can do this. Prove it isn’t about the money by donating the remaining money, after court and lawyer fees, to a respectable charity. 

“It’s not about the money”

Even if it wasnt actually stolen, the owner will claim that it was now

But as a member of generation x, aren’t you annoyed and burned out by everything?

This is an atrociously bad take. A Meh car has to be unforgettable and unoriginal, relegated to the dustbin of automotive history, offering no innovative technology, design or features that can be adopted by the generations that follow. The “Tri-Five Chevy” (Bel-Air is only a trim-level) introduced the masses to a…

But let’s really, really think about what that “something more” actually is: in America, the 1955 to 1957 Chevy Bel Air has become the default, basically generic, “classic car.”

Kinja needs a down vote button for stupid comments. Yours is the only political comment I’ve seen in this article (so far, at least), and it isn't amusing and doesn’t even make sense.

“Mechanically, it was as conservative as Mike Pence after he thinks he may have seen a nipple: Drum brakes all around, body-on-frame construction, inline-sixes and V8s, two-speed automatics, and so on.”

Nope. I dont care about the classic car one of a million schick, a car that has a shooting brake version is auto non-meh.

It could be argued that hot takes on meh cars shouldn’t really happen? 

This is the hottest take I’ve seen yet on Meh Car Mondays.

Millennial click bait nonsense. The introduction of the SBC after a crash development was playing it safe? Fuel injection in the mid-50s was safe? You need to stop with the blistering hot taeks and “edgy” contrariness.

I’m definitely not a huge fan of the pre-muscle car scene (or the boomers), but jesus man, you may as well feature the FD RX-7 next week...

No kidding. An appliance turned out by the tens of millions that was the Toyota Yaris of its day. Produced during an era of interesting cars that no one at this web site seems to know/care about.

That is why they are NOT a meh car. The Fords sold more, yet few know what they look like. Bel Airs stick in your memory. We might not understand what made them special, but something did or they would be as forgotten as the Fords and Chryslers  of the era.

The Tri-Five fascination comes from the fact that it was Chevrolet’s first really distinctive post-war car, housing the first iteration of the small block Chevrolet engine, was affordable for the masses, and could be had in any number of combinations. Compared to the later baroque designs which were overwrought and…

The arguments you make are against the 210. The Bel Air was never meh. Of course, 90% of remaining 210s have been made into Bel Air clones. You are making an argument analogous to the GTO being boring because the Tempest was basic transportation.

Worst not-actually-a-car-person post to date, and that’s saying something.
