I don't know what your think about yourselves, but if you asked people around me this, they might be comming up with this, as the mostest 'murricanest car.

I'm not the long-haul type it seems, no car lasted more than two years as of yet. Maybe the MR2, as i plan to keep it till prices start to hike (soon, my precious!) but only if i won't need the money for a new project.

8) believe it or not, even suspension geometry got better since the '60, and not just a teeny wee bit either. So we do need modern chassis, for sure!

A lot of people will point to the 911, and admittedly, that was my second thought as well. However, there is one thing: Germans normally chose the engineering solution, that will work, and make it perfect, while Porsche chose a layout that is inherently flawed, and engineered the flaw almost out. Now i know it is a…

That is the easiest question of them all. I mean if you're anywhere in between 12-80, there is a good chance you lusted after a W126 at least once in your life. Engineered for perfection and longevity, classless elegance, timeless curves that looked good when new, and aged magnificently, but amid all this niceness, it…

I am sorry, but even with the right badge that is Maserati, i just cannot think positively about the Merak, whatever the shape the example for sale is in. CP.

$415,000 hm... Will tell the wife, she went as far as writing up the phone number on her side, dreaming about making this over as our very own river home. And i could have written the same story about starting to read ships' names, only my place on the Danube is Visegrád/Nagymaros. Budapest, te csodás....

Noone said, you have to be inside the car while you are inside her.... if you catch my drift.

I did use the MR2 for such an event - and it worked. #justsaying

That if your're a true petrolhead, you need to own an Alfa. There are other PCHs out there that drive as good, so why should that be compulsory?

When i was a wee kiddo, and just started to get into cars, Zagato blew my defenseless mind into tiny shreds with this car. I was too young at the time to know what it felt to come, so with no outlet my senses simply overloaded.

Also...

If i was into old luxury sedans, i would much rather go the way of the Jaaaaaag, but this is till something i regard to be nice. Also the price of admission is low enough with the likely future investment needed in mind, so even though this is not my cup of tea, i would say this is still NP.

Look, as Chrysler is Italian now, the message shouldn't be taken at face value anyhow. Yeah, i too would take Mr. Eastwoods' word for anything, but what the heck, this was still only a well made car advert, nothing more.

A Perana Capri you say???? If that was an original, numbers matching car, then that is a huge, and virtually irreplaceable loss right there. If the dad's bad tempered, they might want to spend a few more days in the hospital just so he cools down a bit.

This is an NP, no further discussion needed.

So.... this means only unmarried working class males will survive the apocalypse? Because then i will stop worrying about my mortgage, what with my wife and three kids....

Clint Eastwood is a guy i do listen to, so i hope he's got something good to say.

You know what? I liked it. It's so OTT, in every possible way, you simply cannot take it seriously, not for a moment. Yet for me, it still finds the irony sweet spot, plus it shouts loudly about everything else, but not the car. I'm cool with this.
