Considering the razzing that an ‘87 Chevy Sprint would get would for being ~50hp asking such a price, how in hell would this thing ever be worth more than $2K?

Okay - if this generation of Camaro is your jam, this specimen is certainly of some interest. It’s a rare factory options combination (although I question calling it a “1LE” package per se).

I owned one of these in the early 90s. Honda hasn’t made a hatchback this good since. The subsequent model went to a much rounder shape that lost the usability of the back cargo area this had, and they dropped the Si model at that time as well.

The Wikipedia page for the Impulse does link it to the Stylus, so I’m guessing it’s the same platform.  The Stylus sold here as the Chevrolet Spectrum/Pontiac Sunburst ... although not many of them were ever around. 

Canada never got the turbo/awd variant. We did get a funky long roof version though.

The Geo Storm was one of GM’s greater let-downs of the era. They could have made a serious rival to the Honda Civic Si of the day ... but ...

There is nothing you can do to one of those things that will make it a pleasure to drive - a wallowing horror it will always be.

I think Mark was being a little facetious in his wording, but he has a point too.

Perhaps because he acts as though “the rules don’t apply to him” (e.g. his recent dust-up with the SEC).

... and the next step in the emergence of Corporate Feudalism surfaces.

My first thought when I heard about this settlement was “that isn’t even equivalent to a speeding ticket” as far as Musk is concerned.

All things considered, it’s still pretty solid looking. There’s a few $ worth of kibbles-and-bits it needs, but nothing earth shattering at a glance.

People like to be able to see what’s around them. As vehicles have gotten bulkier with higher window sill lines to meet crash requirements, it’s meant that visibility has suffered.

98-02 Honda Accord Coupe - still looks good 20 years on, and there’s a surprising number left still in serviceable shape. (around here)

That’s kind of my point - they’ve created an image and have managed to weather a number of screw-ups without any problem. Likewise with Toyota.

Nope - 3 year old lease returns to Honda or Toyota tend to comfortably be selling for 2/3 or better of the original price unless they are markedly high mileage. 

Pretty much the same kind of tactic Chrysler used in the 80s - it certainly did help move cars.   

Could be.
