I’ve seen exactly one of those that looks good. It was on a 1/12-scale R/C Wrangler body, painted up, installed, and climbing a curb with its’ charactersitic straight-cut-plastic gear howl. An angry little yapping dog of a Jeep.

This still smells like a “go-away” price. Usually you’ll see it on an almost-new optioned-up pickup or lux SUV that the proprietor of a BHPH lot intends to keep as his personal car for a while but has to list it so he can legally drive it on dealer plates.
And Canada uses the American term (with the British spelling) because there’s a legal and functional difference. The UK DVLA doesn’t supply the actual plates, just the number and a set of display standards car owners are on their own to meet (functionally dealers make the plates, and I suppose parts stores offer…
I painted over mine, using paint normally meant for much smaller cars. Fun fact; Tamiya XF-55 “Deck Tan” is a near-perfect match for a 2020 Honda Fit’s sunvisor material, probably goes for any other recent Honda with a light gray headliner.
The cinch feature was a brilliant solution to a problem an overcomplicated GM “feature” caused in the first place. Surely, Jason, you remember they used to have *two* retractors - one in the usual place on the end of the shoulder belt and one at the base of the *lap* belt - unlike the industry standard of putting one…
The absolute opposite of clever space utilization. Cramped back seat, surprisingly small trunk, massive wasted space between the engine and the front of the car - sometimes the fan shroud would have the proportions of a 90-gallon drum, sometimes there’d be an open-air gap between the front sheetmetal and the radiator…
All these years I thought the early Jeep Wagoneer side round mini-grilles were for the horns, or one for the horn and the other for symmetry.
The Charger needs tweaks more. Personally I always thought the blacked-out face of the current one should’ve been reserved for retail-market V8s, with V6 models getting chrome crosshairs and headlight reflectors, and the police package painting the whole shebang pale argent silver down to the never-meant-to-be-seen…
Some years ago an artist did some paintings of some very hipsterish grown-up MSB kids and retired Ms. Frizzle. But she(?) FORGOT. THE. BUS.
I have to wonder how many of these “new” sales are ex-service loaners that had never been actually registered because they had dealer plates on them.
IMO classic muscle cars are overrated because *they weren’t the best versions of those car lines then or now*. A ‘70 Chevelle SS with an LS6 454 and Muncie 4-speed “rock crusher” may be slower than a new Accord, but a non-SS Malibu with a 307 and Powerglide isn’t *that* much slower yet. You won’t struggle to keep up…
If anything the Neon was *under*rated, owing its’ low survival rate to the fact that the volume SOHC model *would* blow its’ head just out of warranty (Chrysler had a “secret warranty” extension but still...) trashing the line’s image and resale value leading to owners driving them into the ground.
Conservative crypto, I’m *absolutely sure* that’s in no way a scam. And I mean that with all possible sarcasm.
Serious answer; Gift card and, if it’s to be presented immediately, the fanciest cup of coffee you can put together from their coffee bar.
Yeah, way to half-commit. If they really want to go retro there should be a square-headed key to start the ignition, only, and a round-headed one to unlock the doors and tailgate.
And Superstore was able to get retail right because no consultants were needed, it’s entirely possible to fill a Hollywood writers’ room with comedy writers who worked day jobs in retail right up until you hired them for your sitcom just now.
