I’m trying to think of a good comparison to this, and I think I have one. This would be like if back in the day, Car and Driver bought a copy of Cars magazine, and then re-printed pictures from it in their own magazine. And when they got sued, they then claimed that because they bought a copy of the magazine, they…

This was a $5K car the last time it made a visit here. It was an overwhelming winner at $5K. It was a CP for me then. It’s a Good-Bye for me now at $2.6K more with the same nasty dash cap. These cars were ugly when new with much better options for a baby wagon on the market. They are still ugly today. It has jump from…

I don’t understand the massive CP vote here - It’s a running, functioning brown stick-shift wagon for (with a little negotiation) less than $2,000. This is prime Jalop content! At that price drive it until the wheels fall off, it’s probably a hoot.

I don’t view this with the same optimism as you. He may be alive, and he may be able to manage certain tasks (like watching TV), but I’m fairly certain that he didn’t walk into the living room, pick up the remote, ask his friend to sit down and watch the race with him, turn to the right channel, and have a normal…

Yeah, tell me how conservatives don’t try to control people. Really, I need a laugh today.

I know I did. 

Its a symbiotic relationship, when it inevitably catches fire the head gaskets will blow and it will self-extinguish using coolant.

This sounds a lot like the kind of street racing behavior that gets innocent bystanders killed, and that Jalopnik usually takes pains to denounce.

The Omega Caravan was actually pretty loved by the police and other authorities since it had the biggest space in the back in its price range. It was even roomier than a Volvo 700 or 900 series, and when the Omega was phased out and “replaced” by the Insignia, the police departments were scrambling to buy the last…

Opel thought about it, if Wikipedia can be believed.

Speaking of Opel imports, I have a car for next week. No one remembers (late) Saturn, and unfortunately, a great little car called the Astra. It was a rebadge and import of the Opel/ Vauxhall Astra (from Belgium) and it only lasted 2 years. It was offered as a 3 or 5 door hatch in either xe (base) or xr trim.

Had we been offered a Catera that was comparable to the Lotus Omega, we would be reading an article about some other disappointing GM offering.

Nice price, for certain and damn straight.

Anyone who votes CP should leave Jalopnik forever.

Ukrainian truck drivers ain’t got time for that.
