Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad

There was one of these for $4500 on the local craigslist in near-showroom condition with a Chevy 350 under the hood. All the gauges worked, it drove beautifully. Sadly I had just made a bad decision on a 2005 Mustang or I would have gladly bought it. Dream car right there. Cams, heads, high-flow carb and that would…

hnnng, trackball. I need to drag my 486 back out and play a rousing bout of Chip’s Challenge. 486DX-2 66/33 (dat turbo button), 12MB RAM, some random graphics card that I don’t remember the name of but it barely fits inthe case, SB16, Etherexpress16 NIC, 1GB IDE hard drive, MS-DOS 6 and WfW3.11

i have the dumbs. Thought one thing and typed another. Twice. Go me.

If it’s based on the Sunny then it can easily be done. AWD system from an AWD Nissan Sentra and the SR20DE from teh SE-R or SR20DET from the Silvia and you’d have a hell of a hoonmachine. And most of those parts bolt in like LEGO bricks.

Yeah, I did a derp. Been working on cars too much and messed up my metals.

I was aware the dream lifter as based on the 747, but without anything for scale it certainly looks smaller than the Beluga. Huh.

The clearance between the door and the top of the bed aroused me slightly. It’s so perfect.

These are built in my hometown at Spirit AeroSystems in Wichita KS. It’s quite fascinating, being one of few modern passenger jets to extensively use composite (such as carbon fiber) materials instead of traditional steel skin over steel superstructure. I got to watch the construction of enormous kilns that entire…

LeBlanc was one of my favorite parts because he came so far out of left field and I never expected him to be as good as he was. The segment where he was driving the Ariel off-road from the paparazzi showed a very promising talent for off-the-cuff (or just very well-read scripted) remarks and jokes while doing some…

As someone who has driven lots of 3000GTs and dailies a Buick:

You’re making *that* comment on a post about a six-figure Mercedes AMG GT

4 more cylinders = more sport.

I’ve given up on figuring out his logic.

Shit, my buddy bought a 2004 S600 V12 biturbo, black with the AMG package, off of Craigslist for $12k. So far he’s spent $4k in preventative maintenance (some weak points in the suspension, multiple oil and trans fluid flushes, full tune up [yes, all 24 spark plugs]) and modifications (meth injection, transmission…

so I’m going to come over all Tavarish and legitimately ask: Why buy this when you could have a 10 year old S600 V12 biturbo for less than 1/10th the price? All the ameneties you could imagine, subdued styling that has held up very well, an enormous engine producing stupid amounts of go-go, a damn good sound, and room…

The background instrumentals kind of remind me of Discovery-era Daft Punk

I saw a gorgeous two-tone ‘98 supercharged for sale in Tulsa for $1200 a couple weeks ago. So sad I didn’t have money, because it was basically the embodiment of what I want mine to be some day.

I got distracted by a 1993 Nissan Sentra SE-R that ended up in my possession. Because I totally need a fourth car.

Oh, hey. It’s me. For those who care, this is that Buick today:
