I’ve always thought the 944/968 was the greatest sports car ever made. I thought it was just me though so it’s nice to have incontrovertible proof.

I just checked to see how much a full PPF wrap was... uh, that’s OK, I’ll just get my car resprayed every 10-15 years.

Those big Impalas are a hell of a deal slightly used.

It was common. Everything had a vent window before A/C was nearly universally standard and then they persisted a while in some models out of inertia.

1936/37~ish trucks, especially the Dodge.

“Being that CarMax relies on trade-ins and outright sales from owners, it’s possible that drivers are just more reluctant to sell or trade in a manual-equipped car.”

I like the way you think.

It’s going to hit 90 again today... allow me to update the Southern edition for you.

Yep! Our 2001 LeSabre with the 3800 did 31 on the highway and 22 around town and it effortlessly ate up those miles on roadtrips.

I second the LeSabre but just about any big midsize/intermediate/fullsize FWD V6 sedan from GM will work - they may not be fancy but they’re reliable and get decent MPGs and they’re very undervalued because everyone is fighting over 240,000 mile Corollas.

I can begrudgingly accept an LS in a 944, say a non-turbo or non-big-4V-S model but not carbed. Not like that. That’s just wrong. At least have the decency to show the 944 the respect it deserves by giving it EFI.

Not if they leased it.

If the battery is that dead, it’s not going to push start anyway. You gotta have enough juice to run the fuel pump, PCM, ignition and injectors and all the other sensors,  whatnots and doodads.

Well, yeah, they kind of co-evolved with bumper safety. Originally they were just for aesthetics, like the late 60's Pontiacs but then they became a way to hide big ugly bumpers behind a more aestheticaly pleasing panel but as bumper regulations got weakened from their 1970s peak, so did their crash absorbing…

The whole point of the modern urethane cover/hydraulic bumper system was to be able to absorb low speed collisions with no damage from inconsequential love taps and significantly reduce the cost and hassle of minor fender benders thus saving owners & insurance companies money and time and making everyone happy.

My buddy has a C6 with the electronic door handles. I like popping the mechanical release on the floor better.

I’m 6'5" and I totally fit in an S2000. Just kidding, I could barely close the doors let alone drive it.

I really want a drop-top Challenger. Dodge should have been building those all along.

Can you go back and do the Mustangs next? I was looking at Ecoboost and V6 verts for my wife and 95% of them that are listed as “Manual” end up autos when you click through the photos.

Hey, a guy can dream right?
