Wrong, coolest Canadian car is actually a supercar, that not a lot of folks know about. Of course, they never really got any actual deliveries done, but there were some pre-orders IIRC. HTT Plethore for the Google search.

It just looks to *happy*, like a not so intelligent puppy.

I’m Canuck and never heard of this car before today. Great find!

As long as there’s no rust underneath and the hidden light on the dash isn’t anything catastrophic I’ll give it a NP.  I’m very worried about that light being an SRS light which are really no fun.

I had to ND, based on the vagueness of the description and the hidden warning light.

He’s pretty proud of the price he’s asking:

Why do they say Firebird?

If you want a ridiculously slow tank that could shrug off a direct nuclear strike, this is your car. Otherwise, the nostalgia factor on these is overrated. 

Nice, but the seller needs to knock it down a bit more for potential headaches large and small–possible A/C issue, mystery warning light, nonfunctioning stereo. And that’s assuming there’s no rust. Why are the floor mats that color?

You’re doing the same math that the Bros are doing. You save $100 for one delivery while ignoring the hundreds of dollars every month you waste on bad gas mileage, higher loan payments (trucks are notoriously overpriced), and higher maintenance costs.

Was thinking “VinFast” was Vin Diesel’s twitter account.

Vietnam is often pointed to as a more benign place to do business if you’re looking for low-ish wage labor in Asia.

This is a neat reminder that Vietnam, despite having opened up to the world and…

Imagine that? Shady BS company does shady BS stuff...oh wait, someone is knocking at my door. I’ll be right back, maybe!

I actually knew someone who owned one of these new, and it was a really nice, exotic for the time, pos. Power was understandably for the time, non-linear coupled with shitty handling. It died a tragic death by rollover, though the owner was definitely not Senna behind the wheel.

I totally agree with you. People who can’t see the distinction of having to take your broken Chevy into a dealer, taking time off work, and sitting there for hours, are dummies.  I will just push a button in my dash when I plug my car in my garage.  Just jealous ICE bros.  

but here’s the thing: I think the severity of the root of the recall is so much more extreme than most (not all) of the recalls in the past.

“...with the fleet-like trim of regular cab with the eight-foot bed...”

Ram is probably going to do what Chevy does with their Express cargo vans. Run them forever

I can’t be the only one who thinks this is kind of awesome, right? Isn’t this basically peak-Jalop? Buying the cars of yesteryear that we claim to pine for, but also with a warranty?
