“the dual-motor setup in this model will have around 500 horsepower and will be able to charge at 37 miles per hour.”

My dad still has this car (not his actual car pictured but exactly like this one) a 1980 triumph TR7 Spider. That being said my favorite car he had was a 2002 Lincoln Continental. It had a 6-disc cd changer, bose speakers, and a detuned sideways Mustang Cobra engine (275hp DOHC V8 FWD). It was surprisingly quick and…

I mean they got Jalopnik to write an article on it and I’m here blogging about it so I’d say the marketing worked.

Well the supply is going down and the demand is staying constant so...

“there are only so many letters and numbers to pick from”. Well for the English alphabet I’ll agree their are 26 letters, however there are literally infinite numbers so... the combinations are endless.  I’m sure the counter argument will be that beyond a certain point the numbers will get too difficult and I’ll say…

As a lover of the Ford GT, I agree!  I like big buttresses and I cannot lie.

Does the 5.2 Predator have the same oil consumption issues as the Voodoo? I remember reading that those burn through serious oil both in forums and from C&D on their long term test car.  If so, this will burn oil and fuel rather quickly.

Especially the HD’s with the Allison version of the TH400. Those were awesome transmissions.

Understood, but the AMC 360 is not exactly a bad starting point as it has plenty of potential. The 401 is just sooo much better (forged everything, better main bearings, stronger block).  Either way gas mileage will be terrible.

I think you picked the wrong supra badge, this one is cooler.

My uncle had one of these with a 401 the ran low 15's these are super cool.  This would be a good basis for a restoration and they are very collectible right now.  For someone with the money for a resto who wants to sell it for 40k on bring a trailer this is a good buy.

I would probably err on the side of caution as these diesels have a 10k oil interval maximum.  I wouldn’t be surprised if in the coming years more manufacturers build fullsize plug in hybrid trucks to help with CAFE standards and because the market is shifting to demand better fuel economy.

Richmond is wild. We have our own 12 o’clock boys these days. About once a week I see a car just demolished from a drunk driver pinging off it.

I was commuting on my ZR-750 in the rain on a highway when the rain got suddenly much worse like torrential downpour.  I wear a full face helmet so visibility became very limited but thankfully most of the traffic slowed down.  The car that wasn’t paying attention was the AMG CLS in front of me which panic braked and…

I think the downside for diesels is they generally have higher maintenance costs. Oil changes, fuel filters, and other basic maintenance are just more expensive, and in the 3.0's case the max distance between oil changes is 10k miles which means you should probably change them at about the frequency of a gas engine…

my FIL has a low mileage AP2 that has only gone up in value since he bought it.  Definitely hold onto it and enjoy the heck out of it.

I wouldn’t personally buy it, I’m with you I’d pay the extra $8k.  But for someone looking to save money and has the time/ability to do the work I think it is not a terrible route to go.  Also, I like the AP1's they are a more of a pure sports car than the AP2's.

It is not clear by this article but the base model (as is in the Tahoe and Suburban) Is 2WD. Pretty much no one buys the 2WD because everyone wants to do or pretend to do “truck stuff”. The 2WD’s also have horrible resale value (comparatively trucks always hold their value ok) when compared to the 4WD.  For me the…
