In the review, he talks about the C5 and it’s gaudy add-ons. Thing is, the C5 is a very clean design and is devoid of gaudy add-ons. So I don’t know what gaudy add-on the reviewer was referring to.

The C5 is really a damn decent performance value and it’s only going to get better for the next umpteen years. I do have a couple friends who have autocrossed these and while not my cup of tea for that (I prefer much smaller things) they are undeniable. If that’s what you want a car for, a Miata does not need to be…

I do not feel bad for Chris Evans.

Particularly the engine, which holds explosions.

It will always have a touchscreen...in my heart

Go for it. Had many Porsches in the past and now have a Cayenne and a 986 Boxster, that shares the same IMS/RMS issue mentioned. First of all, it is overblown. BIG time. Of course a search on Google will show you the details but keep in mind people, Jalops included, go to the internet forums when they have problems…

That’s not how cut & paste works. If you cut Chris Evans, you’ll paste Chris Evans.

Cut Chris Evans.
Paste Tiff Needell.

Dude, just buy an AW11 MR2. If that doesn’t tickle your willy, you’ve got no soul....

The Abarth is not impractical! Here’s my Abarth hauling 16' lumber.

I told the whole story here, but to summarize... After my Subaru BRZ got rear ended, I was burdened with a Jeep Compass for a month while it got fixed. I hated that thing. Aside from having more interior space than the BRZ (which anything this side of a Miata does), it had no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

The perps were apprehended, queso closed.

I know I’m in the minority here, but I think it’s because not many people know these cars or their values and therefore think it is a good deal. This car is a crack pipe. A poorly maintained,riced-out, money pit crack pipe. The red under the hood, crappily recovered seats, steering wheel, and gauges tell me all I need…

Patrick, When are we going to get you in the MR2!?

I’m going back to the sloth story

Now, With Bitches!™

This is probably the best photographed car I’ve ever seen for sale at eBay. The photos are really beautiful, the car is really beautiful

They have appreciated incrementally. I’ve seen several sell recently for sub 15k in very reasonable condition. These have to go spike at some point—they’re just too much class for pennies.

I’m personally happy about this, I really enjoy both Harris and Schmitz, and I think they’re amazing car people, it means that on top of the new show on Amazon, I’ll still be able to enjoy old Top Gear.

aw damn, mixed feelings now.
