Here’s a question, what does everyone here think of bōsōzoku and kaido racers?

OH, well that makes a little more sense. Thanks for the clarification!

Yep, AE101 ‘Rolla would be my pick, too. And you could buy about 4 of ‘em within budget, and never have to buy a car again (even though most of us would be shopping within the first week).

There’s only one co-pilot that matters

This was one of those cars that, when it came out, made you think, how’d it take them so long to think of this? It’s just perfect. RIP little boxy bro.

First, this is an excellent and appropriately viscous deconstruction of an article that’s bullshit at best and misleading at worst.

Reading the comments on the Washington post article I though I should share this one by somebody who was interviewed for the article.

Amen, man. The thing about youth car culture today is that they’re out driving their cars, not sitting around a fucking parking lot grumbling and shaking their heads and fists.

As one of the interviewees (I’m 54, not 67!), I am really pissed about this article- and that fact that you think everyone that was interviewed agreed with it. I spent a good amount of time with the writer giving him numerous counterpoints to his goal. He wrote none of them. I suspect them same scenario happened with

I hate to rag on my favourite car company, but...

Early 2000s Chrysler Sebring. Lots of people at my high school got these as hand-me-downs or purchased them because they’re the cheapest convertibles on the market.These things were unbelievably unreliable, made my friend’s 1968 Plymouth Valiant look like the pinnacle of reliability.

Don’t forget about the Honda s2000 and the rx-8 that had a redline of 9,000k... granted they weren’t as powerful, exciting, or even as high revving, I think they were a reliable and more accessible version of this beast.

I’m just gonna post photos of some Studebakers that I’ve had the pleasure of coming across, at car shows and out in the wild.

I still don’t think any of those cars are boring, but those pictures are spectacular.

JESUS TAPDANCING CHRIST! A PONTIAC GRAND AM?!

What really has me scared here is the number of cars that sell less than 2,000 units a year. What happened to the auto industry?! Wasn't it just five short decades ago that you could get 800,000 people into a new Mustang per year? What gives?

First of all, like others have said, I have no garage, tools, or other resources with which to work on my cars. Even if I did, I probably wouldn't touch them because they are just worth too much money and mean too much to me. It was a different world 30 years ago when you could pick up an old Impala or Galaxy for $400
