Ronin didn’t blow the market up for the A8/S8.

Liam Dwyer totally did this a few years ago at Lime Rock after finishing on the Conti Series podium. He was knocking back beers out of his leg. It was awesome.

The Town Car is the king of panthers. The Grand Marquis, especially in 80's guise, is not too far behind. LOOK AT THIS THRONE. IT IS FIT FOR A KING.

I would read the hell out of that article.

I wanted an Allante as a grade schooler. It boggled my mind that I didn’t see many growing up. Now they are in “screw it, why not” price range, I’ve been tempted by a few. 

The buick terazza and Pontiac Torrent come to mind immediately.

I didn’t even notice that. I just saw “4_60" and didn’t notice the T.

Damn it. I was hoping someone wouldn’t beat me to a b-body wagon. I wanted to stuff a 502 Ram Jet into a roadie wagon. I even sourced one with a blown engine. The only real tip off would be you need a reverse cowl hood to hide the big fella under the hood.

I’m very upset that the Trump tariffs are going to virtually eliminate the slim chance we had of getting cacti in this country. I want to drive one so badly.

Wine, what looks like pepperoni, some prosecco, we may be looking at the progenitor of the free candy van: Euro edition, here.

A friend of mine is on his third. He’s put over 200k on each. He’s just about to begin the hunt for his next one. 

That was essentially my response to them. They exist to make money. I don’t deny them that right. Had they said my car was too low rent for them, I would understand, but don’t give me the “too common” BS.

That’s really all that can be said. There isn’t anything spectacular about them, but they are priced accordingly. The dealer network is a tad shaky, and I think we’re all aware of their....... credit.... system. 

They have?

If you sell three cars instead of 1, you’ve increased your marketshare by leaps and bounds. They didn’t have a high bar to cross. They are still selling about 1/3rd of the vehicles they sold in the early 2000's. 

*Pours one out on the curb*

There really aren’t. Which is why it boggles my mind that BaT rejected my listing. I have a 96 m edition with 75k miles, stock as stock gets, good body, no rust, all maintenance done by Mazda.

Just in case anyone was curious, red is the only acceptable interior color for a Zimmer Quicksilver.

If it has a four slot crank pulley, this thing is a short noser. Not a big deal if you keep up on the maintenance. This is about what low miles smurfs are going for these days, so NP

The rebuild cost isn’t as bad as you may think. The 13b is one of the more reliable triangle twirlers out there. Tearing down a rotary engine actually isn’t nearly as complex as doing the same to a conventional piston engine. As long as the rotor housings aren’t chewed up, it isn’t too bad of a job. Friends of mine…
