These things scream boomer to me, but this is a nice specimen. If this is your thing and you’ve got 36k to drop on a garage queen, this seems like a good price. It’ll go right next to the slingshot.

The Sky and Solstice are completely identical aside from styling

I’m 6'0 and fit alright, I could see another couple inches being an issue

Only 35k ever made over a 4 year run. Partially because GM killed the brand (along with Pontiac), and partially because it filled a niche between the Corvette and Miata (and the base level competed directly with the Miata)...an answer to a question few really asked. 

Lando Norris might disagree....

I was thinkign BMW - anything with the N54 or N55 can be seriously modded (I realize this post is not those engines, but I’m too lazy). Not too many out there, but they can be had. 

I don’t think these came as a manual in the states, so you’d either have to find a swapped one, or swap it using that budget. They are unique though.

The GTI (excluding the original). MK3/4 is kind of the epitome of it. Yes, they are more fun than the standard golf, but they’re definitely compromise cars. They’re sorta fun, sorta good handling, useful, but not extremely good at any of those things. That’s partially the charm of it for a single car, but also…

How about most underrated? Did I just guess the next slideshow clickbait series?

I have a GC Trailhawk and said something the other day in the FB group along the lines of “idk who would buy this trim to be a concrete cruiser”. I figured a pretty dedicated offroad trim would be for offroaders/enthusiasts, especially when pretty much all the options are available on other trims. A bunch of people…

Because it does it same/better for cheaper.

Now, I’m not talking about it’s offroad prowess which stands for itself -- and is often how the press tests it as well. Reality is people pay stupid amounts of money for something they will never take offroad, just for looks. 

Is it a jeep? Then yes, it qualifies for holy grail these days.

Genesis has had some amazing designs come through lately! This is not one of them. I guess the rear 3/4 is slightly interesting. The interior makes me think of a kia soul or nissan cube or something. Just looks cheap af.

They sure know their audience. My brother drove a 1995 century (identical interior to this one from 1994) for many years. Where we got them? My grandpa. This was a nice design from 1986, even if conservative then...it echoes a lot of designs of 70s luxobarges. And by 1994, the people who wanted those luxobarges were…

Every time I see the front end of the new Z I can’t unsee. The rest though...awesome.

Hell no. BCM replacement is a last resort fix for all sort of electrical gremlins. The lifters aren’t too unusual in the cylinder deactivation world. But like others, this sounds like there is so much else wrong and/or undiagnosed. ND all the way.

I’m with you, maybe not my favorite ever but SUCH a great car let down by a shitty engine. I still want to pick another one up and do a swap.

Ideally they would have just had a better rotary engine. They absolutely nailed everything else on the car...great handling, interior was decent for the time, styling was distinct and has aged well, some folks on here hate on the clamshell doors but I loved them and found them a very functional compromise. Virtually…
