I think whip antennas look better than the silly shark fins.  The shark fins always stick out like a sore thumb to me. Where as a whip antenna looks like it has purpose.   

I agree, satellite radio is fun for about 2 hours, then it’s terrible as the depth of the play list is roughly zero. I’m a big fan of FM radio, there are a few great local stations where I live that haven’t sold out to I Heart radio and they are just wonderful. The I heart radio stations are super annoying, always…

The 99 BMW 328is, that I had recommended 89, so that's what I put in.  It's a particularly rare call out.

It would go against the design ethos of light weight and as simple as possible, but I’d have mine with about a 100hp electric motor driving through a 5 speed manual with three pedals. I feel a car like this completely looses it’s spirit and connection of you eliminate the manual.

I've daily driven an Austin Healey Sprite, I don't see daily driving a 7 to be any more arduous. Would be fun!  The worst part of an old British convertible is the cumbersome soft top installations that don't do a great job keeping the weather out.

Yeah, right now my grandparents have an RV they are no longer using.  We are trying to convince them that we should sell it while the market is hot.

Have had this happen to me.  Oil pressure indicator blew out on the GM 3800 Series II in my Oldsmobile 88.  Luckily it happened 1000 ft before arriving home, in that distance the engine lost 3.5 quarts of oil.  Of course the one time I wanted the low oil pressure light to work, it didn't as the sensor was destroyed.

The only channel that I change my plans for the day because an episode dropped.  Fantastic in every way.

Yout missed Bad Obsession Motorsports with Project Binky and their side project Escargo!  Easily the very best build channel on YouTube, they might even finish the project this decade.

Admittedly, the two Nissan I am most interested in are the old Frontier and the 370z.  I like the basicness of the Frontier, probably my favorite rental car I've managed to get in the US.  It had very comfortable old school cloth seats, good visibility and an excellent naturally aspirated V6 attached to a predictable…

It is very car dependent. I’ve found it much easier to teach people with my light weight Austin Healey Sprite than the BMW e36 M3. The Sprite idles a lot faster and just doesn’t take much to get it off the line, we’re as the M3 idles down under 700 rpm and has no power there.

These are the questions I’d like to hear the answers to.

Completely agree.  I am very disappointed that EVs have been so aggressively coupled with self driving.  I want simplicity in my automobile, particularly when it comes to the control algorithm.   Luckily some company will pull this off, someone like Mazda or Toyota, a sensible auto maker that makes sensible vehicles.

The price of these has been going up fast as it is getting harder to find clean examples. If you want a dirty one (rust, mods, filth, convertible, pick your poison) then they can be had for under $10k. But else, most decent e36 M3s over 100k miles are between $12 and $20k cars. This one feels a bit steep to me being…

This one is about $4-5k too high in my opinion. However clean ones are appreciating fast so it is hard to tell.

I always wonder if the folks that talk about the under rated US engine in the e36 M3 have ever actually drive one. I own a 99 M3 coupe and a 99 328is coupe. Let me say, there is a huge difference in the performance of the two cars. 50 hp is massive when you are talking 191hp vs 240 hp.

I could only disagree more if silver didn’t exist as a color. I am a huge e36 fan, own two of them. Boston green is the one color that reguardless of the car, I pass over.

My friend just resurrected a 4020.  It was parked 15 years ago where it stopped running due to completely carboned up exhaust to the point of no flow.  He basically rebuilt the full engine. 

1980 Gruman full sized Curbmaster van with a big block 454 and a 4 speed on the floor. It was a vehicle that my friends and I got running after sitting in a field for 10 years. It had some issues, the lower bearing on the steering column had rusted off so steering was sporadic. The one front brake liked to stick. We we…

Considering where I live, Pennsylvania, I’ve not hit a deer. Came close to running one down in my Oldsmoblie, it tried it’s best to out run me while I was chasing it down with the brakes planted to the floor. I think I was within about two feet of its rear before the Oldsmoblie was traveling slower than the deer was…
