It’s a cool build and no doubt well executed. But it’s on the wrong side of $20K. Put this is into a E30 Touring iX and maybe I could see it through to $25K.

Can be easily rigged. List a car, have your friend buy it and give positive feedback, then list the same car for sale back up on the website. I would be shocked if any car they listed was legitimately sold on Ebay.
Let’s see.... Bullet proof and rev to the stars V8? Check. Same engine and transmission placement used in modern day F1 cars? Check. Timeless Pininfarina styling (gotta disagree with you there Rob, although white is not a great color for any 90s Ferrari)? Check. Beverly Hills Car Club? Oh boy.... I was all in until I…
Haha I read all the follow up responses as well. I’m a pretty good shoe, race Spec E30 competitively and such so I don’t think my driving is the issue. I’ve driven all years of 911s and absolutely adore the older ones, particularly the early long nose cars. Maybe it’s bit of an insecurity... I don’t know. To me, it…
I’m just that adult who would never drive a Miata. That’s my personal preference. If someone else is happy driving a Miata or newer 911, good on them.
I don’t doubt every word you said is true and the 911 really is that good. But I’m in a bit of a car snob and I wouldn’t be caught dead driving one (unless it is was really, really dark out and I was in a remote, deserted area than I might sneak a drive). Can you kindly ask Lotus for an Evora 400 to review? I would…
The Thema did not share its platform with the Tempra. That would have been the Dedra. The Thema platform was shared by the Alfa 164, Fiat Chroma and the Saab 9000. But I’m glad it was an excuse to show a 8.32 going around a turn on 2 wheels.

I’ve been a jaded bastard for years and I whole heartedly agree Kristen, this thing makes me weak in the knees and giddy with irrational feelings. My child hood poster was the Countach. Nothing about that car made sense and you get the feeling that even though McLaren applied a great deal of engineering rigor, there’s…
But we’re not talking about cars are we?
You angry?
Fair enough. I did read your comment, but 1) you didn’t state your wife wasn’t an enthusiast, and 2) you didn’t state you have no problem falling into your z, so I assumed you were ready to bail on it for a crossover. Anyway, I’m glad to hear there are still people out there that enjoy driving.
Listen, I am open minded and love most vehicles, different shapes, sizes and years. But please don’t expect people to come on here and do cartwheels for a 201X Bloboid GLX All Motion CUV / SUV whatever. There are communities for appliances, but it isn’t here.
Perhaps it’s time to face the reality that although you’re trolling a car enthusiast website, you and your wife are not really enthusiasts. I’ve daily driven everything, Alfa Spiders and Lotus Elises 2 inches off the ground, and I never once thought to myself that getting in / out of these cars is a chore. Quite the…
Listen I was a long time BMW guy, so I have no shortage of love for the marque. But the new M cars - and I have ample seat time in both the new M2 and M3 - are not fun to drive. Not on the street anyway. They run out of steam at about 6 grand, don’t sound particularly special, feel incredibly nervous just driving…
“Born in M///Town”
All they had to do was lift it a few inches, glue on some ugly grey plastic body cladding, suck all the expensive bits out of the interior - namely those seats - and call it the Intercontinental. Boom! Pow! Kazaam! Instant sales success. Sadly, this probably isn’t far from the truth.
You’re right, that is the best part.
I can definitely a-ford it, but not sure I can Escape the fact that those door mirrors Focus my attention on the multi-shade doors.
I’m friends with the CL poster and I’m pretty sure he isn’t a complete pyscho-path, drug dealer, child molester, booze hound and / or any of the above. Just a creative guy looking for a way to party, not drive drunk and not deal with shitty Uber drivers. Not everything is a scam and not everything needs to be clearly…
