    General comment: This is by far the best-looking Z-car from Nissan in a very long time.

    “Middle of nowhere” is a relative term.  Middle of a campground would be “middle of nowhere” for this thing.

    $13K for a nearly end of useful life Chrysler? Nope. With a somewhat dodgy looking “camperization” glued onto it? Double Nope.

    Nicely done restomod without being ridiculous. Kudos to whoever did it for having the taste not to make a hash out of it.

    It could have been a contender.  I suspect that Chrysler had problems identifying a supplier that could provide one that wouldn’t have pushed the price point too high. 

    Dodge Magnum was a wagon - I don’t recall there being a sedan version of it unless you’re referring to the 300 on the LX platform. (and no, I’m not counting the K platform version - the Ks were never “cab forward” designs)

    I’m going to ranty for a few minutes.

    Rare =/= Valuable.

    NP ... for what it is. If you want a cheap (and probably fairly reliable) convertible, this isn’t a bad choice.

    Seriously? That’s what you’re going to carp about?

    It might not be a bad price for one of these things, but this is (for me) the point at which Ferrari lost its way in terms of styling.  What a soulless blob of sheet metal. 

    I have to say “NP” - $2500 for one that hasn’t been run into the ground is okay by me.  That said, I absolutely despise the powertrain in this one.  This is one car that would benefit from a heart transplant from a similar vintage Toyota - smoother engine, with a far better transmission.  (Every 4 cylinder Fiero I

    NP.

    The hate-on for these is almost as bad as the abuse the Mustang II gets - and more or less for the same reasons. People hate change. They really hate the unexpected.

    NP - just not for me.

    Hard Pass.

    Makes me think of that old song just looking at it ... 

    “What’s left is what you have to work with”:  so basically a giant puzzle with pieces made out of oxidized metal ... 

    The end result reminds me of the Fuller’s Dymaxion concept car... 

    So ... truck turns on signal, and the Tesla doesn’t back off why?
