I did! Amazing, because I hunted a Bavaria for a while. Loved those things.

Wow, that Porsche is Fuchs up.

Man, I am a sucker for cars with dual headlights. These Alfas, the Capri, the Stag, hell even the Peugot 505. They’re the high cheekbones of the automotive world.

So is it possible for a white person to not be racist, then? Most of us white folk don’t like being called a racist. I’ve never seen an article that tells me what a non-racist white person says. So if I acknowledge that racism exists and there are lingering and ugly race-based problems and that I have it easier in

Your side-view mirrors are supposed to be side-view mirrors, not rear-view mirrors. Nearly everybody does this wrong. My opinion on this is so unpopular, I may be shunned from all online discourse.

Transverse v-anything? ... strike 1

Does this car have an engine? Oh, you say it has an inline six? Why would we want to see a picture of that?

Yes. This.

“... run for the boarder?” Are you supposing we have someone renting our house who can loan us the $7500 for this vehicle?

I owned a Spitfire. The engine was the worst part of that car. Cannot fathom why anyone would do this.

“Decimate” sounds really dramatic, but I hope this legendary engine is more than 1/10th better than all others.

I know it is best form on Jalopnik to have a hilarious or arch reply. But the question wasn’t about about annoying drivers. Bad drivers brake in the corners, cut you off because their side-view mirrors are functioning as rear-view mirrors, merge poorly (or completely bail and stop on the on-ramp) and act unpredictably

OK. I get that a motorcycle is ALSO a vehicle. But goll dang dadblammit I clicked here expecting a bunch of exciting lists of great and underappreciated or oddball cars. Now, y’all are tempting me again with this two-wheel crap. Stop it - I’m not listening!

Looking at this makes me think of the word “gland.”

There are no good answers in the subset of solutions that include prison, rehabilitation, punishment and execution. Nobody wants to do the hard work of changing society to value the maintenance of a nuclear family and understand how to raise kids. Yes, that includes teaching them how to drive a stick. (I’m not being

35,092 people dead via traffic fatalities? That is the most shameful statistic; to hell with the dollar estimates about road conditions. Is the implication that road conditions are linked directly to increased fatalities? I’m sure it doesn’t help, but I can’t see that variable being primary.

Character has a lot to do with design or a “look” (RX7, Jeep, Miata, Volvo) and that’s the sentimental reason people keep cars, but the other reason is simplicity and durability. I have a 5-speed 94 Accord 4-door that has not much resale value but I keep repairing it because: I got it cheap, (who wants a powder blue

I have no idea if it would be perfect if it had three pedals. The only absolute is that half of these articles I barely look at once I get to that buzz-killing sentence about the wonderful slushbox it has. Rental car.

Ha - funny society and its taboos about theft! Your poor mother and her naive misguided attempts at teaching you a principle; how quaint! I’m sure that your lack of control over petty impulses and your ability to decide where to draw the line on stealing has served you very well over the years.

If you bought this Callaway, most likely a cab would be needed pretty often. Hidey ho. Ha ha ... sigh ...
