Pop goes the food truck?

The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. Not many museums would have a Bugatti Royale, but this is the only one where that would not be the most important car in the museum.

More like there’s a sadist for every masochist.  And vice versa.

ND for me, but I’m sure that price would be a lot less than what the car would bring at Mecum or Barrett-Jackson.

How about this one?

Tina Fey, on Saturday Night Live, said it best about the Segway (quote approximate): “It will revolutionize the way people get hit by cars.”

General Motors, 1966 to 1975. The 1966 Toronado. The 1966 Riviera. The 1967 Eldorado. The 1967 Camaro and Firebird. The 1969 Grand Prix. The 1970-1/2 Camaro and Firebird. The 1975 Seville. (Not so much the “boattail” 1971 Riviera.) Just about everything Bill Mitchell laid his hand on.

1990s Mazda: The first-and second-gen MX-5 Miata. The third-gen RX-7. The second-gen 929. The second-gen MX-6. They all looked universally great, but unfortunately they all looked anonymously great, which is why Mazda had a problem with it. One design engineer stated (quote approximate) “We had a lot of people saying,…

Dr. Seuess would be proud of you.

The hail damage doesn’t bother me even half as much as the supercharger and whatever other aftermarket bits are on this car.  I don’t buy into the seller’s claim that the engine, with the replacement parts, should be “bulletproof.”

This makes me wish there was a NDAP option: No Dice at Any Price.

I remember reading about a promotion Hot Wheels had with Chevrolet back in 1993. The 25th anniversary of Hot Wheels coincided with the 40th of the Corvette, so Hot Wheels celebrated with a “special edition” model Corvette, limited to x-thousand made. In one of the sealed packages was a ticket redeemable for a real Corv…

Maybe someone thoguht they could do this with it. (And yes, I’m aware that this is a third-gen Jetta.)

ND from me (and, at this point, from a vast majority of you), but I have no doubt someone will buy it for close to that price.

The question of “Where will you find another?” is tempered by “What will you do with this one?” Any mile added to the odometer will be a huge value hit. A beautiful car, but ND from me.

It looks like the ultimate NPOND has been settled for this car; at 8:30 am, the ad was taken down.

This would be a nice price...about 5-10 years from now. Right now, $15-20,000 is more like it—though I wouldn’t be surprised if the seller got the money. Maybe the buyer, if he/she/it is that wealthy, they can then afford to put more authentic tires on it.  Does anyone make reproduction Goodyear Gatorbacks?

Ford Excursion. If the kid is able to keep gas in it, the combination of too much testosterone and too little experience will inspire the offspring to run over a few Priuses before the inevitable arrest.

The 2005 Ford Five Hundred/Mercury Montego. A very nice, very capable family car. A perfect car for its target audience (older Americans) with a lot of very good attributes for those buyers: a smooth ride, comfortable seats, large doors and a high rear roofline for ease of entry and exit, a large glass area for great…

I remember reading about a quote in the owner’s manual (wording approximate):
