I’d be more worried about wayward Mustangs.

I do like driving them, and actively seek out 900 Turbos, those I love. The GM-era cars can be a pain in the ass to work on but in truth are pretty hard to kill.

I’ve worked on a lot of Saabs, I’m sorry.

I’ve got 99 problems and my VW causes nearly all of them.

Great story with a sad ending, I hope the thing is still rocking along somewhere like it’s 1982.

Wonderful, wonderful car, I never should have sold mine, but it’s not worth that much. Yet.

Of course not, and a current Maserati dealer might not know where to start because this car is too old. More likely a good independent like the one I work for, which is how I know these cars. How many here have the skill or desire to do anything themselves? I encourage them to, but the vast majority of owners won’t.

The M5 is quicker stock. The 4.2 is only based on Ferrari architecture, they don’t sound, rev, or make power like one. They’re pretty though.

Have you ever driven one of these? They are horrible. They are a beautiful engine (as in nice to look at, because an E39 M5 will own it) wrapped in a clapped out ‘84 Mustang convertible. The only saving grace is that it’s not a Cambiocorsa, which you mentioned. That transmission makes a 1st-Gen BMW SMG look like a

But it’s nice to know it’s available, just in case.

Since SCRAMP booted Steve Earle and turned the Historics into the Reunion (basically because they wanted a bigger cut), the price has increased on everything. I’m pretty sure they struggle to break even on everything else, so there may be some compensation there. They do a good job running the place in general, but

This is true, but I also work in racing and seeing the cars in motion and on track is important to me. Perhaps I should have phrased it differently, because it’s more than just looking at cars. Blackhawk is incredible, I got to go there several times when I was younger, but museums don’t tell the kinetic side of a

Which is why I can now consider owning a Model A someday. Good.

Hey, this looks like my California town now! Cool. More of this, please.

How dumb is the name, really? Do you walk up to it and think, “damn, this is my CT6, I’m awesome” or “Damn that badge is stupid!”?

Have you looked for a good one lately? They’re rapidly becoming the 240SX. Beat-ass 3-color primer zip tied project cars are $3k or more, good manual coupes don’t exist for less than $6k.

I want to take my 4-year old daughter up to the Historics on the Saturday to share these wonderful old cars and the experience with her as my dad did for me. That’s how we make enthusiasts, you know?

Kimi not so sure about number two. Kimi ok with others.

So he’s calling out the manufacturers that are actually building practical electric cars, right now, that people of modest means can afford. Nice.
