I’ll see your Lincoln Continental and raise you a Facel Vega Excellence:

I’d recommend a 2009-2012 Hyundai Elantra Touring. Reliable, lots of room for people and cargo, you actually sit upright in them Very reasonably priced, cheap to insure, good gas mileage. Fold the seats down and you have 65 cubic feet of space. Can’t beat it!

Can I say that $6k makes it a Nice Crack Pipe? I agree that $4500 is a much better number. A little electrical fiddling and... wait... did Lucas’s evil hands ever touch the Elan?

How, in the name of Zeus’s butthole, has this car gotten a 9% “nice price” rating????

I think he meant to say he was building a Mock 1

Agree completely.  My moniker for them is “Severely Limited Utility Trucklets” or “SLUTs”

Can I get it with plaid seats?

$700k - $1 mil??? Let’s split the difference and call it $850k.

You’d be better off spending $6500 on actual crack.  It’ll last longer and you’ll get a better return on your investment.  And probably have better stories to tell.

Unless you are an Italian from New York or New Jersey, in which case the last syllable is silent: Mozzarella is pronounced “Mootz-a-rell”; Capicola is pronounced “Gabagol”, etc

My first car - 1979 Peugeot 604 with the vaunted twin Solex carburetor setup (One single barrel, and one 2-barrel) where the automatic choke only worked if the car was warm. I’m convinced that the engineers took their inspiration from the ancient Chinese curse “May you live in interesting times.”

“Cash for clunkers”??? Sheeit... all this time I thought it was “Cash for Chryslers”

I can tell the weight and type of oil just by looking at the car... from 1000 feet away, using binoculars

If it makes you feel better, I can’t imagine anybody was this passionate about the Plymouth Horizon. In fact, the only time my Horizon elicited a happy reaction from me was the day it threw a rod through the block.

Can I put an LS3 in it?

I had those exact wheels on my 1988 BMW 535i:

I wonder if it comes with a genuine Lucas Wiring Harness smoke replacement kit:
