They are the only place you can buy a brand new Sega Genesis since they’re still one of the top selling consoles in Brazil.
I’m actually an IT tech. I spend my days with my hands inside computers.
That was just one example of the things I saw. Plenty of nearly new vehicles with sealed transmissions that came in on a flatbed because the transmission had failed, expensive navigation units failing. Some of these under warranty, some not. I accept that cars are safer in many respects with all the airbags and other…
You proceed from a false assumption. I have no spouse or children. It’s just me and my 1990 Camry that has been unfailingly reliable for nearly 22 years. I live in rural West Virginia, my entire county has less than 60,000 people in it. I spent my most formative years riding in the back seat of an 88 Camry, so…
I’m rather fond of my 80's shitbox. And I’ve been driving it since I was 16... in 1995.
Absolutely! I still have my first car almost 22 years later, but I did buy one that my father had traded off 9 years before. I have a deep love of the wedgy/boxy cars of the 80’s and in 1988, my folks bought a 88 Camry LE with the new V6 option. They drove it for 5 years and traded it with 71,000 miles. The retired…
I agree. I've driven a 1990 Toyota Camry since 1995 and it's only broken down on me once. at 250k-ish the original ignition coil finally croaked and that's the only time in 20 years she's not gotten me where I was going. I need to replace the A/C compressor, but other than that, I just do the maintenance and…
The V21 chassis has always been my favorite. That's why I ended up with two... a pristine 88 V6 LE and a 90 DX that just keeps going. The 88 has lose than 90k on the clock, the DX just turned over 267,000. The DX upholstery may not be posh, but that tweed wears amazingly well. 19 years and the car only broke down on…
My favorite has always been the performance trim on the last Nissan Gloria (Infiniti M45) In Japan, the top trim on the Gloria was 300 Ultima-Z Gran Turismo.
I have an 88 V6 and a 90 4 cylinder Camry. Driven newer ones, but those 2nd gen ones were so much better cars than the new ones, Smaller, nimble, comfortable. yes bt today's standards they are underpowered and don't have any of the tech the newer ones have, but to me that's a good thing. I like my power windows…
The Mark X is the current generation of the car the US knew as the Cressida. Still RWD, but it does have the corporate V6 in it now.
I've driven my 1990 Camry since 1995. It turned over 120k on the way home from the dealer. Currently at 265k and I have no plans to ever get rid of it. Sure, in 18 years I've done a few repairs, more recently some more substantial ones, but only once has she not gotten me here I was going when the factory installed…
Deride me if you will, but my automotive soul mate is the V21 Toyota Camry. My parents' 88 V6LE was the last of my family's vehicles to impact me. So much so, when I turned 16, I wanted a 2nd gen Camry. That was in 1995 and I'm still driving the 1990 2.0 DX one I got as my first car. 120k on the day I drove her…
Oh, if Toyota would bring us the GZG50 Century, i'd be in heaven. Classic, timeless styling in the vein of the 61-64 Lincoln Continental or Rolls Silver Shadow, but at a comparably reasonable price for a bespoke high tech land yacht.
