Average Americans don’t know or give a shit about Peugeot or Citreon. Meanwhile, there are 2400+ dealerships in the US with “Chrysler” on their signs that will bitch to Stellantis incessantly if they are told to add/change their signage to include some “Frenchy brand.”

I was going to say that 6'2" is not that far above average, but I was surprised to see that the avg. height of a US male is only 5'9”. However, if you look at German males, the avg. is 5'11" and my ancestry is very German.

I’ve never driven a Miata, but I sat in an FD at the Mazda dealership while waiting to close a deal on the wife’s CX-5. With the top down and the seat all the way back, I could not comfortably get my legs under the steering wheel and my eyes were even with the top of the windshield frame. I’m 6'2" with a 34" inseam,…

Pretty sure it is just the back-handed peace sign that means piss-off.

Do I have an entire folder in my hard drive filled with carefully-curated Kyalami Ranch photos? I do.

I love AMX’s, but for the money, I’ll take a first and second generation Javelin and pocket the change.

For God’s sake people, if your are going to use bones for a steering wheel, please use beef ribs! They have a natural curve without the big knobby ends. Far more practical.

Great. I hadn’t thought of this song in decades, but this came straight into my mind after reading your comment.

Personally, I liked the look of the original Volt. It was distinct without being weirdly different. Presumably, the aerodynamics would be suitable as a pure EV.

Per IMDb, the majority of the movie was filmed in and around Dallas. You’re right that there were scenes shot in PA and LA, but there was at least one scene credited to Detroit. It doesn’t say which scene though.

C’mon now, you expect a guy that lived in the Reno, NV area to understand one of the most basic rules of one of the most common casino games?

Hell, when I was shopping for a new-to-me car in 2006, the local Infiniti dealer had an 87 Carrera for under $30K sitting in their used car showroom.

They guy put fucking Hankooks on Porsche he is trying to sell for $11K shy of six figures. While Hankooks are perfectly fine on a $20K used sports sedan, putting them on a car you believe is worth $14K more in just 8 months, and then listing said car on CL is cheap as fuck and a clear indication of who this seller is.

In the third shot, you can see a break between the driver and passenger sides of the windshield. So half of the windshield rotates forward as the door is raised, scissor-style. You can see the hinges in the interior shot. Definitely unique! 

mid-engined cars need a lot of space to put the engine. Schultzy just wan’t as talented as Gandini in disguising that length. Looking at the original Countach, there is quite a bit of space from the rear wheels to the door cut line. Gandini used the pointy rear wheel opening and the raked scissor door to make it look…

Yep, and Toyota already makes trucks here in the US. Just get the shrink ray out and start zapping some Tacos.

She was able to put it to use though...

“Nobody minds a man having a morning eye-opener and it’s OK to have a bracer about 10 A.M. and a couple of drinks before lunch. A few beers on a hot afternoon keeps a man healthy, or at least happy. And, of course everyone drinks at cocktail hour. A man can’t be criticized for having wine with his dinner, a liqueur…

That lead pic is alright, alright, alright!
