This is why the Scion brand was killed off.

Well played.

The cops seem a mite upset, but not many others.

But Didi, your Pajero Mini may have been registered before the DMV added the language about “not titling any Kei-class vehicles.” Anyhow, see you at the next meet up!

That makes more sense in my eyes than this one; a 1990 in good condition is rare and in the sweet spot of nostalgic buyers with disposable income.

And if the Civic is taken care of, it will plateau at $6K and then go up in value.

My 90s Honda is a similar shade (see avatar)... I love it, even though it isn’t what I would’ve picked from the available options.

They’ll definitely make a pickup truck (too much money to be left on the ground), it just won’t be the Cybertruck. Not sure that Tesla has enough of a design language that it could be transferred to a truck design, though.

Funny how the line between child and adult is so different for whites and blacks. 11 years old and Black makes you an adult - meanwhile, George W Bush’s DUI at 30 was generally treated as a youthful indiscretion. 

In China, all of the Old Moneyed people were killed off after 1948 - which means no one there really knows how to be rich AND classy, and thus no takers for Mercedes-Benz station wagons (Hong Kong excepted, I suppose). But what’s America’s excuse???

Fourth Gear: I’d say that building 1,015 rather than the promised 1,200 cars must count as having delivered fully, especially in light of chips and whatnot. I am impressed (still won’t own a pickup truck though).

This is why I always make sure to carry cash - that, and I am too cheap to pay more for gas.

Good. Thank you for not mentioning removing the filibuster, a gambit which surely won’t help Dems once the Republicans take over again. Perhaps the filibuster should once more require that Senators have to talk the whole time.

Pretty sure the Reatta has a lot of admirers. I see them exhibited at car shows (in a non-ironical manner) all the time, and I have watched prices climb steadily over the last five-ten years.

Easy, just prononunce it Alp-ha.

Best of luck. My recently imported 1996 Toyota Caldina (October 1996 build date, cleared customs in December) was just issued plates and passed the inspections at my tame mechanic’s.

Also note that the “For Sale” sign in photo #1 clearly reads 1976 rather than 1978 as per the remainder of the ad. Good job.

That answering QOTDs feeds the Kinja demons.

Would it make sense to build up snow around the car, leaving one door accessible? As in building an igloo out of your car.

$3K in repairs + $1K = $8K car. I like the math.
