My neighbor had one that couldn’t make it up his steep driveway without taking a run at it. Had the hood decal and everything.

Good ol’ flip flop.

Wow, I had no ideal the two nations harbored that type of tension.

I own an 86. Mine is modified to within an inch of its life (turbo, built motor, megasquirt ECU, etc.), but it means I’ve turned every nut and bolt on the car. These cars are mechanically simple, reliable (yes, really!), easy to maintain, and will provide a lifetime of smiles. The downside is that it’s not going to be

To the contrary, that many miles is a GOOD thing on a nearly 40 year old car. That means it likely didn’t spend long periods sitting and someone did everything necessary to keep it running.

Counterpoint: The maintenance required to get an Alfa to the moon means that pretty much any wear item has been replaced at least once. Someone kept this running.  An ‘87 Alfa with 230k miles is no more likely to be a ticking time bomb of deferred maintenance than one with half as many miles.

My first thought was “Nope, never.” Then I read the description. If that car has done over 200,000, then it’s solid and cared for. NP. 

I’ve always admired these, plus you saved me the trouble of typing. NP!

This is the Quadrifoglio version which gets you the cladding, those phone dial wheels and the hardtop but not performance jump. If its solid and not rusted and that engine was done by a reputable shop, then the price is good. All Spiders (even the least desirable 75-82 era) are now fetching prices at or above this.

Is that actually an SR-71, or is it an A-12? (It’s got the twin-seats.)

Such an awesome plane.

I wonder if this plane will be allowed to leak fuel while on the ground like the SR-71. On that plane, the tanks were only properly sealed after thermal expansion of the fuselage when flying at high speeds.

It isn’t a smoking gun that he was in on it, but it will definitely be investigated because it is questionable at best. I bet this guy will have the local 5-0 looking into his dealings for a while.

OBDII reader scans the VIN in the vehicle computer. Do it! VIN is on door jam. VIN is engraved on engine. Do They Match?

The guy 100% knew what he was buying and 100% assumed the dealer wasn’t going to do the extra due diligence. In other places, a commenter claiming to be the buyer basically stated the trade-in was a scam to get out of sales tax.

Why would he pay $75k for a Bronco and then go trade it in a few weeks later? Makes no sense. I have a feeling this guy is in on this scam.

Free speech absolute-ish.

As much as I love my Model Y, I freaking hate this guy.

I’m also not re-signing up for Twitter/X to watch that video.

I hate so much that this clown owns a car company so I have to hear about him 27 times a day on every automotive website I visit.
