..... or a circa 1982 arcade game character!

Newly retired and have drawn my 2nd SS check. It will be another 153 months before I ever start collecting more than I and my employers have contributed over the decades. And I doubt I will make it to age 75.

Wot, no Bulldog?

The Acura badge.

The second gen Insight was an egregious example of phoning one in. It was a 10% smaller Prius with 10% less efficiency and initially with NiMh chemistry batteries. I owned three 1st gen Insights, one with a 220hhp K20a swap and can attest that after the monumentally great engineering of the first one, the second was…

The hydrogen fuel cell FCX Clarity comes to mind. Not that it was a bad design or vehicle, but it was a bet on a hydrogen future that never came to fruition.

Or just embarrass other kinks.  I don’t want some skinny gamer girl I want Gerda, the Eastern European weight lifter with hands she can just crush me with!! 

The mods worry me more than the mileage. Still, this is about as low an entry price as you’ll get for an S2000 with a clean title and mods that are easily undone. NP. 

My Italian Mamma’s version. Toasted bread, slathered with butter, a few slices of layered prosciutto topped with thin sliced red onions drizzled with some nice olive oil and maybe a sprinkle of coarse salt and fresh cracked pepper. I leave off the salt and pepper, don’t always toast the bread if high quality and will…

Yeah, they really should have just stuck with ILX; but then they wouldn’t have received all this free press.

This is the worst way to bring back a storied name. I don’t think a Type S/R would save it, since it’ll just be a clone of the CTR. The new ‘Integra’ doesn’t need to exist. And most certainly not in this form.

It’s a shame really, the engine in the ILX seems more desirable.

This post is 5 hours old and there isn’t a Miata?

I will never see this car and not think about Jack Nicholson / As Good As It Gets

Here in the devil’s armpit (PHX), convertible season is more from October to May. The best summer convertible is something with a hardtop to keep the AC in and the heat out on the hottest days. Top down is a nighttime activity. My E93 BMW is honestly fantastic. Had a Mini before, and the AC just couldn’t keep up even…

Grandpa says Fiat X1/9. Not powerful but so much fun to drive. I got mine in 1979 for the lump sum of 10K$ Canadian, about 8K$ US. Kept the car for 8 years, drove in the winter and never had an issue, ever.

Honda Fit. They really done messed up by never giving us a Si or Type-R version. 

the old skool 3 door civic (which I suppose would now be a 3 door Fit although that car is actually huge compared to the old Civic)

That's right. Although, condensed milk in the US and Europe is different to the one in Argentina.
