Not true, our CLK550 convertible has a procedure to manually lower or raise the top.  Numerous steps, using a hex key to relieve hydraulic pressure so cylinders are free to move.  I think if you have to use the procedure you will have to get the air bled out of the hydraulics before using the power operation function…

928'S look something like an AMC Pacer’s milf stepmom. There’s lots to like about them. But the Porsche faithful at the time couldn’t deal with something  that had more in common with their arch enemy -Corvette.. They’ve always languished  in the automotive bargain bin for so long. I can’t see trying to change…

Just to clarify about the spark plugs on the 5.4- This is the older 2V 5.4 that came in the F-series up to ‘04 and was replaced by the 5.4 3v.  The 2V has issues with the threads on the spark plugs which people attribute to two few threads on the head.  This issues can cause the plugs to blow out of the head.  I use a…

Am I the only one who never developed an appreciation for the Viper? They always seemed like a marketing gimmick for Dodge, as opposed to a true supercar. 

The seller doesn’t have time to auction the car off and get twice as much for it? Bullshit. I don’t think it would even hit the current asking price at auction. This is a tacky, malaise-esque boat with a problem child engine crammed in the front so tightly that I don’t think you could slip an index card between it…

I too would like to live in a world where the trash collector pays me every day to pick up my garbage. But then again, if that were to happen, it would probably also mean living in some sort of Monkey’s Paw universe where I have to pay to go to work. I don’t think I want to be the one who establishes the precedent and…

Others are noting some shenanigans regarding the seller, but outside of that let’s consider this car for what it is. It’s currently listed for right about what it’s MSRP was.

Wouldn’t this car have started its life as right hand drive?

This is one of the easiest “Buy This Now” cars on this site in a long time. If it was anywhere near me, I’d buy it today.

$4,000 for a running daily that isn’t a fright pig? I’ll take that as a win in this market. NP. Kudos to the prior owners for taking far, far better care of this car than what most of them suffered through. 

You can buy an actually nice BRZ/FRS for this money, or get a ratty/modified one for less. No reason to go for this one, so ND in the purest sense of the term.

It looks like you stuck the bodywork of a BMW 850 in a panini press, then stuck the windshield atop the now-squished bodywork.

Fun runabout. Convertibles need saving. It’s a Toyota that hasn’t crossed into 6-figure mileage yet, meaning that it’s barely broken in.

If you’ve ever owned a treadmill, you know how heavy, unwieldy and space-hogging it is for a machine that typically ends up rarely used. The glimpse of the mechanism behind the seats reminded me of a piece of exercise equipment, taking up real estate for its all-too-infrequent use. This must have been really cool to…

Can I get 10k off with the stock rims?

On one hand, extensive receipts and a clean interior—well done.

Drop about 5k for the damage or fix it yourself. And I still have PTSD from dropping trou yesterday for a new alternator for Elle.

The wheels have been coated in gloss black, which gives the car a bit of a boy racer look, for better or worse.

If you can authenticate that Jackie Stewart owned the car and raced it at the Nurburgring 24 Hours, and then won the Indy 500 with it, the car will also have significantly higher value.
