He must have skin like Corinthian Leather.
My 2003 Mini Cooper was a barrel of laughs. Me and the service department were on a first name basis. I don't think BMW was quite ready for us commoners to grace their service areas. Most folks who paid $18,000 to $25,000m for their "little BMW" was quite ready for BMW prices for the frequent repairs.
Getting fired from Fiat/Chrysler and hooning a Fiat 500 Abarth in the Chrysler Technology Center.
On behalf of those of us who geek out on car design, thank you! This is the coolest thing I have watched today.
An all business, lightweight, minimalistic, hot hatch equivalent to the Lotus Elise would be worth $40,000 to me.
Kinda Sorta. It was actually ASC/McLaren (American Sunroof Company). McLaren provided some springs, shocks, wheels and other suspension parts and their name for the ASC/McLaren Capris in 1983. After that, they pretty much just allowed their name to be slapped on the modified Mustangs and Capris until 1990.
When a car company in the 1980's can't make a good car with Honda mechanicals, you know they suck! Think about it, they were unable to take an Acura Legend, install pretty British trim pieces without it becoming a world class automotive clusterfuck!
Popemobile- Panoramic view of the 4 legged wildlife and bulletproof glass will help protect you from the 2 legged wildlife.
Geo Metro. Even though the gas mileage would be nice, it is the worst of all worlds in every other way. The seats are as comfortable as church pews. It manages to handle terribly, and is still as rough as a Radio Flyer. Managing to get up hill with that anemic 3 cylinder would make you like the guys in Dumb and…
Corvette Indy - In an age where GM got it so wrong on their production cars, they managed to get it soooo right on this concept. It influenced designers for years after.
There is only one reason I see where this is a viable way to buy a car. If you are buying your dream second car, like the Corvette you always promised yourself and plan to keep it for at least 10 years. Being this is a second car, being used with disposable income, you want to spend as little per month as possible. …

It would have to be an AMC product. I don't know why, it just does.
Though it has been about 150 years since people were getting by secessionists.
Give the driver a break, all he wanted was a little peace and quiet!
That was pretty good, but was upstaged with a hot woman in an Australian accent saying:" A Shelby with a supercharger". Frankly, I had to listen again and again and go off for alone time!
Ford had a real shortage of bloated, fat cars in the 1970's. When the Granada is considered compact during a fuel crisis, that is a problem. That would have been an interesting departure for the T-Bird or Lincoln Mark (whatever number they were on) from the malaise faux baroque luxury of the time. The Mustang II is…
There are a lot of Mustang II decal specials and vinyl landau roof editions that will rank higher, but this deserves a mention: The mid-ninetees Mystic Cobras with color shifting purple-ish ChromeAlusion paint. That color is the car version of a harry buffalo party. They both made me puke at one time.
