If the Mark X were imported to the US, it would be in the same station as the Avalon since the Mark X is the current generation of the car we knew as the Cressida here.

Which is one of the reasons the 170 series are my favorite. Last of the I6 Crowns and they were more formal and elegant than the V6 models that have come since. But I prefer my cars a little more squared off ;)

P-Type, most definitely.

I just shared this article on Toyota’s Facebook page with the exact same sentiment. I would love to have my vintage Toyota factory restored!

I loved my Raider. Wish I still had it.

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.

Your wife sounds awseome! I also live in 80's nostalgia world.

maybe folding space like they did in Dune or Robotech. If it is even theoretically possible to “travel without moving”

Apparently you’ve never been to a rural town. In West Virginia, it would be almost impossible to function without a personal vehicle except maybe in Morgantown, Huntington, or Charleston.

Have you considered installing a flavor of Linux? Lubuntu even has a version for Power PC Mac machines and it will be surprisingly fast.

Toshibas are tanks. Still have my first one, a pentium III Satellite I bought Inn the summer of 2001. My newer one is a 7 year old one with a Core 2 duo. Both just chugging along. The PIII doesn’t handle streaming video well, but runs games and software of the era very well.

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 don’t see the SDF1 from Robotech or the Guild Highliners from Dune, but I’m not sure if folding space counts.

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.
