You get my star for acknowledging trait selection over successive generations.

1.) I’d take a female manual NSX and breed it with a male manual Lotus Esprit for generations until all the British engineering was gone and all that was left of the engine and power train was reliable Japanese engineering.

Only $45,000? That’s a lot of Meh per dollar! Get one while they’re... tepid.

In the mid 80's 7-Up ran a contest where the grand prize was a Subaru XT Coupe. I was in love with that car. I made my poor parents stock our fridge with 7-Up that entire summer even though no one in our family really liked it.

Indeed. Go register the David Tracy Home For Aged And Infirm Jeeps as a 401(c)3, and I will donate yearly. What a noble pursuit.

That Imperial limo is magnificent. Coach built and rare IIRC, but if I am ever a dictator of a small country, either this or a 65 Imperial Ghia limousine would be my ride of choice.

Damn, I haven’t seen one of those coupes in 30 years. The limo was awfully pretty too... OMG, the Malaise era is back! NOOOO!

No joke, went to pick up a date Wednesday night and I saw an Aurora in the parking lot. She calls me to see if I’m having trouble finding her building number, and I’m like “No sorry I just saw this car and...never mind, I’ll be there soon.”

I just saw an aurora (quite rare) yesterday, and I was thinking the same thing! If I wanted a 90's American sedan, it would have to be that.

Personally I prefer the 6th gen coup. Always loved the rear end.

I’ve got a big soft-spot for Malaise-era American luxury cars, but those are slowly starting to be regarded as classics in some circles, so I think that disqualifies them from being “boring.”

2nd-generation Chrysler Concorde. I love that they made this much effort in breaking out of the full-size sedan mold.

Kristen, I just wanted to stop and personally thank you for this article.

Here we are merchandising shit for BMWs and this piece brought us to tears. Thank you. <3

This one sprayed iced tea all over my desk:

For me it was:

“my mom says his hair makes him look like a majestic lion.”

This entire article is magic, but that line had me spitting coffee.

Cherry 2000!? Seriously did you just pull that out!?
