Apologies for the butchering of the English language above, wrote it on my phone and my thumbs have proven unreliable communicators.

It is nice, it isn’t concours nice. Initially I saw 11k and thought sure,but at the actual 25k listing price? Goodbye.
The twins are great, they really are, but that interior is junk, the Miata starts out cheaper, is lighter, and had parity on silly magazine numbers before they added more power and more redline.
Maybe a B16 from a 6th-gen Civic Si? All bolt-in then but would still be Californistan legal. Not quite as rowdy as a K-series, but would still be fun.
They are old enough to import, and the K20/K24 is Federalized and CARB certified. What restrictions would keep you from running one with a K20/K24 engine? As long as you maintain all emissions equipment from the donor car, they are newer than the destination platform, and thus legally approved.
This was my favorite generation of Accord, knew countless kids in highschool that had the 2dr hatch and 4dr sedan versions; usually ended up helping them with their car when the distributor would get worn out and they were stuck in the school lot.
I wanted a hatchback with B18 swap. Keep it visually stock with nice…
Feedback:
I like the look and idea of the Ranger, and I particularly dig the 2.3L, but truth be told it is a massive disappointment. It is an old platform, it’s peers are sadly all old platforms too, the fuel economy still sucks for how much less you get over an Ecoboost F-150, and they are still expensive! (At least…
That was a HARD scene to watch, very unexpected, and was an extra dig realizing it was indeed Icheb.
I could look at Cherokees all day, fuck I love Jeeps. Even still, that price is absurd for a condition and spec that isn’t all that special. This guy is spare parts for sure bud.
I rode my Triunph Speed Triple in all sorts of conditions, including a cold and soggy evening commute home from work. Heated grips would have been a nice luxury in those situations.
Tis is the positive news we need today. What a lovely build.
The herpes-laden and loose-fitting foreskin on that e-brake handle tell you everything you need to know about the quality of this build.
We don’t need your negativity, we need drift van.
I imagine it’ll sound like a Triumph Speed Triple, with added turbo noises. That is a very good sound.
So has Raf Orlove put his deposit down on this yet?
Agreed. Mazda’s current logo is okay, but the two before it were awful. Before then? Mazda had some lovely brand logos that would have endured the test of time, if given the chance, but they abandoned them for what was hip in the moment.
We’ve bought two FIAT 500's so far, and will likely own a third at some point. They have a horrid interior (very poor materials), but the rest of the car is a treat, and the refresh shown on the Nuova 500e looks to fix everything we griped about with our 500 Sport and 500 Abarth.
The best part about this ‘All New’ FIAT 500-E, is that it is really just a heavy facelift on the existing platform, and ALL OF THAT MAGNIFICENT INTERIOR will transfer over with a bit of work. I don’t know where I’m going to find that lovely Bvlgari peacock dash panel, but a minor setback to be sure.
Mercedes is really committed to the ‘melted wax statue’ design aesthetic. I’m with you, the standard E=class looks like a cheap car now, compared to previous generations. The last gen, and really the pre-facelift one at that, was a high water mark in recent times.
