You pretty much just described me to a T...still can't drive a manual...I need to buy me one of these to practice!

Yep, this would be my choice! I played this for hours on end.

Wait a second — I thought the twin kidneys were an original Pontiac design?

That's worth a H/C. I miss pushrods. The last time I drove a 10-best engine was when I had my old Buicks with the bulletproof 3800. Aaaah, memories.

I think the Coyote is the most beautiful engine to come out in the past 20 years. I mean, come on — the manifold itself is a work of art!

I'm really the van which had more than just its bloody doors blown off in The Italian Job. People sometimes mistake me for one of the Fiats in the movie.

That was the first thing to pop into my mind, too...

1st: This whole episode has reaffirmed my belief that the human race won't be here in 200 years. Driving around two tons of steel with a highly flammable liquid inside = good, but driving around two tons of steel with another substance which might catch fire = bad. Damned sheeple. Damned media. Get off my lawn!

Dumb question time.....how do you open the doors from the outside? I see something that looks like a button to push, but no handle to grab...

If the state of Texas wants to use my design, they can send me a PM. I'm sure we can come up with a reasonable royalty rate.

Dude — welcome back! Nice to see you again.

Rob, this is your best write-up in recent memory — keep up the great work! You pull so many great references together in a few short paragraphs, and never fail to make me smile every morning.

Agreed.

Yeah, I guess I did miss the boat on that one...I do appreciate your being courteous — that doesn't always happen on the Internets.

The first thing that popped into my mind was the '57 Bel-Air. I don't know that I'd necessarily say it's a design that should be put back into production lock, stock, and barrel, but I daresay it's one of the few things that pop up into anyone's mind when the 1950s come up in general. An icon of the time, I suppose,

Pretty much the same design changes up front, but I think the MKT wears it much better than the MKS. If there were a Mrs. ParkAve231 and little ParkAve350 and 307, I think the refreshed MKT would be a contender for a fancy family hauler.

I love me anything Buick 231 related, but this.......no. CP all the way.
