(Alfa owner here) I bought it from a kid in Novi and it came from North Carolina, I don’t know if it made a stop in Ohio on the way. But this is the second time that I’ve heard rumors of a hawt red Milano in Ohio, so I just may have a doppelganger round those parts!

“a sweet white BMW E36 graced the Walmart parking lot with its huge wing”

That was your takeaway after reading the article? My thought was for us to start a gofundme for the guy to get his some gas cards and essentials. Hope that gets as many likes as this...

Right. My point was just that the nation is divided. It’s a tense time.

Roadsters are okay for commuting. Been doing it for years. They are a great way to make mundane trips a bit more entertaining, if you want them to be.

That original Z4 hit all the right spots. It was an improvement on every aspect of the Z3, but managed to not lose sight of what was good about the Z3. The suspension was better, interior was better, and the engine selection was great.  

My 2013 FR-S (so stiffer suspension) is the most comfortable long-haul ride I’ve ever owned.

So, yes, it all kind of starts with a car crash, and in this case, it’s a Ford-on-Ford literal mashup, with what appears to be a 1948-ish Ford F1 pickup climbing up and over a 1949-1951 Ford sedan

The Beartooth Highway is worth a trip in any vehicle you have available to you. We do a family camping trip in Wyoming every year and almost always take a day trip to the Beartooths.

Yeah you aren’t kidding! Went there this Septmeberand holy hell! EVERYONE was there, even post-Labor Day. Was in a car, but was drooling at the idea of coming back with my moto for Going to the Sun. Ahhhh...

I would bet that the producer of Volvo’s motor is a domestic Chinese manufacturer. I also wouldn’t be surprised if it is one that Geely has a stake in.

The guy is worth OVER $300,000,000. That’s in addition to his many other money making ventures outside of an F1 cockpit. Do you really think his motivation is to score a bigger paycheck? The guy is in the catbird seat with options up the wazoo; he’s set for life and has NOTHING to prove. He can literally do whatever…

Meanwhile I bought the most stripped down GTI they ever made to avoid being stuck with a fucking sunroof. Sunroof is just a way of asking for water to eventually be in your car. Plus less headroom, added weight, etc. If I want the fresh air I’ll take my Miata out. 

We talk each other’s ears off and I at least drink waaaay too much coffee. I’ve made a couple of new friends there already.

I agree. This is outstanding and would look great today. If Scion were still around, I’d say this would fit right in as the xE.

So DeTomaso says it’ll restore the restore the romance, beauty, passion and elegance? I didn’t see any mention of reliability or durability though.

I would gladly give up hp and cylinders when it means the weight is reduced drastically.

The 4C is ugly too—there, I said it. Put that pinched, beaky face on a car from literally any other brand and tell me you’d find it beautiful. It looks like a goddam parrot fish.

I think I saw the team at Pep Boys for the 4-for-$99 special.

There are no reasons dealers need to be privately owned. There is no reason companies like Ford would not have factory stores with inventory, just like Apple has a factory store with inventory. The likely hood is less movement on negotiating but I imagine the market would dictate discounts based on inventory and…
