The Evora fills a very interesting niche. People wanted a more usable and livable Elise. Lotus went out and created that their own way. People always want to make this a 911 competitor, but the 911 has been a GT car for decades now. The Evora is a sports car that you can drive everyday.

Star for including the Fiero :) I am building up my version of the perfect sports car with a Fiero running a K20. Once that is done all that is left to improve are the: steering, brakes, suspension, and interior!

I am sure they will sell 1 stripper model for $60,000 and the second the buyer signs their name Yellowstone will erupt, California will fall into the ocean, and the world will end within a few days. 

Can we all admit that the Corvette is not a victim, but the cause of all this crap that is happening? The world clearly can NOT take a $60,000 mid engined Corvette, it throws all systems out of balance.

I want to be mad about some lady stealing a builder’s work, but at the same time if you are going to do a played out theme that has landed others in trouble then maybe you deserve to have your car taken.

Hopefully they can figure out a way to do this in North America. Canada then a week off then Texas??? During the in between week the drivers could all try to break teh Cannonball record :) Or maybe it becomes the Tim Hortons to Texas BBQ road race.

I always ask myself, what is the goal. I have Fiero and the goal for the car was fun, just fun no other words I just want to have fun. So after driving it for a few months I decided it needed more power, so the Iron Duke had to go. Truth be told it always ran shitty anyway so it was never that much fun to never know

2 things

Bring back the Integra already! In today’s world I would expect it to be a baby SUV with zero performance, I do not like today’s world :( 

Pastrana is the modern day Evil Kenevil.  If there isn’t a flip or a mid-air spin in the video I will be amazed.  

I tell myself I am creating a Lotus Exige from a different set of parents, but in reality I am polishing a turd. All the sawp stuff is capable of being thrown into other chassis so if it sucks I will buy an e30 shell and drop stuff in or a Miata or a Fox Body Mustang or any number of things out there.  Engine,

Iron Duke (which I killed autoXing it) being replaced with a K20. All the main parts are ready except an ECU and axles, will need a bunch of hoses and things like that, but when working with a car this old and in shitty shape who knows what will be uncovered.

Automotive project snowballing is a great life joy. I will start an engine swap on my Fiero this week, last night I was preemptively shopping fuel cells in anticipation of finding something wrong with my gas tank. My list of if this is broken then buy this is amazingly long.

The Iron Duke that I’m pulling makes nothing at the top end, it drives like a diesel.  I want to rev for power, it is just more fun that way.  The srt4 motors are pretty awesome as well, but Dodge in a GM feels more wrong than Honda in a GM :) 

I almost went that route, but the Quad 4 I found at the local junkyard had a hole in the block. Staying in the GM family helps with race regulations, but I’m willing to give that up for easier power.

Well I autoXed this:

As a Fiero owner I hope the body panels get sold, I could use a few and since they are not metal the damage will be minimal. 

I 100% agree.  I have a Fiero and the interior was a smokey mess so I pulled it all out.  When the new dash is built it will have the HVAC and a phone holder connected to a bluetooth speaker for music.  

Owned one of these with a stick and it was an amazing car in all respects. Smooth mile cruncher, then it loved the curves.  Maintenance is expensive and what eventually got me to sell mine.  I would love to M swap one of these later in life.  

Wait do you honestly believe that Trump or Pence understand division? Better question do you honestly believe Trump understands numbers? You don’t file for bankruptcy that many times if you understand numbers.
