Driving in the US is getting ridiculous. Just don’t engage these idiots, but also do dumb crap like the Raptor driver; he was an accident looking for a place to happen.

I still use my ‘88 260E (124 ) as my daily driver. The 190E’s big brother looks just as good and fits a full-size car in the space of a mid-size.

Still use my late father's '88 260E as my daily driver.  Fantastic car, and I'm never parting with it if I have the choice.

Best car of the ‘80s?

Well, there’s a few contenders with my Dad.

Not advice as much as an appalling lack of knowledge... Apparently I am the only person I know in my state (Indiana) who has ever heard of downshifting to help with braking.

I am absolutely in love with ‘80s & ‘90s Mercedes, given my DD is my late father’s ‘88 260E.

1984 GMC Jimmy.

The most expensive car in the world is a German sedan that "just needs a few things".

Nooooo, really? As the current owner of a 1988 260E, I never would have guessed. /s

I inherited my Dad’s very nice late ‘80s Mercedes. At the time, I already had a 2000 Civic. The M-B is a fantastic car, and Dad kept it immaculate.

First car I ever bought was a 2000 Civic sedan. Lower-end model, automatic transmission.

‘95 cars are still pretty good, but that’s about the end of the stupidly overbuilt cars.

Of course I can tell them apart.  The Mercedes is the one that's still running today.

Mostly unrelated, but that just reminded me of something my late Mom said once. She & Dad had retired to a well off retirement area in SW Florida. Sadly Dad fell into the hands of an incompetent doctor and died way too early.

I’m not going to even touch the whole sexism thing here, since everybody else has.

News flash: She won at Motegi and was the first woman to lead laps of the Indy 500.

I’ve never specifically gone out & bought something because it was promoted via motorsports, but if I’m going to be vuying something anyway, I have favored motorsports-promoted companies/ products.

So, here’s what I know about this:

Exactly. This is a car you can daily drive and not worry about losing half the value if it gets dinged in a parking lot.
