Also, also, people coming to a dead stop at a roundabout when there are ZERO cars in sight (aside from the people behind them, of course). Or even stopping when there are other cars, but there’s plenty of time to get through.

Driving a convertible with the top down... And the windows up.

Someone should rescue this poor car from its pitiful life and send it to the crusher in the hopes that maybe the metal will be recycled into something useful, like a fork. Coincidentally, a fork is more useful and valuable than this thing. CP

This is why we can’t have nice shooting things.

You can buy NA Miatas for $5k or less all day long, and you won’t be afraid of them getting scratched in the parking lot. A $16k car is crack pipe no matter what the miles are.

At one time, I had an ‘87 Olds 442 with the “HO” 307 making all of 175-180 bhp (depending on who you ask). My family car makes 217 while getting better gas mileage. The 80s were embarassing.

On a tangent, what is it with people selling cars that they can’t spend 30 seconds just unscrewing the license plate for the pictures? It’s not like it’s a difficult endeavor or anything, and probably takes about as long as editing the picture or putting tape over the plate. The only thing that’s decidedly faster is

I debated on the spelling of that but was too lazy to look it up.

He could have nailed me for reckless driving (Indiana) but didn’t. Presumably because he was just guessing at my speed.

Very first speeding ticket. I had a 1984 Olds Cutlass with the 231 V-6 making a whopping 110 bhp and my buddy had a 1978 Olds Cutlass with the 260 V-8 (making... 115 bhp maybe?). We decided to see who was faster, so we set out to race. We hit a red light, the light turned, we nailed it. As luck would have it, a cop

Around $2k I MIGHT consider it a platform for an interesting sleeper, but not a penny more.

$12k for a 10 year-old Chrysler product? CP all day long.

50 year-old women with more money than sense.

What GMart said. Plus, labor is basically free since it’s my hobby and all.

Hell, fix its problems and sell it for $1,500. Except for maybe those locks. Weird.

I have a hard time believing someone with a man bun would be reading anything worth while.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

My ‘97 Miata is the same. Maybe it’s a Mazda thing.

Interesting, but not at that price.

I’m strangely on board with this, even at that price. The wife wants a minivan to haul the kids, but I still have a soul, so this seems like a good compromise. NP
