This is probably far from brand new. It's a press vehicle!

I wish I still had my '93 EX Wagon. Best car ever.

Especially if that generation wasn't available in your country...

Not sure if already said or not, but I'm casting a vote for British Roadsters.

I prefer the Mark VIII LSC. First use of the 32v DOHC mod motor. Loved that they all seemed to come in black on black, too.

A and B are precisely the reason for C. Economics 101!

Even though I was never in the market for one, I was a bit pissed at Honda when the TSX bloated up and got the V6, instead of continuing to be based on the everywhere-but-North-America Accord.

Lemme give you a little insight about the construction business I've learned in recent years from my father-in-law, who is a construction manager and owner representative with considerable experience.

Mild steel, which those suspension components are almost certainly made of, very quickly forms a thin layer of rust that actually protects it from further rust. Unless the components are aluminum or painted, you'll see this on pretty much any car or truck that has been driven in the rain even just once, no matter how

Fearless prediction/accusation: canned article he wrote forever ago when he had time on his hands.

Laziness, no.

Good call, there. I've often believed that anything that makes a vehicle better balanced is an improvement, even if it means cutting the power down a bit. It's why I've avoided buying V6 FWD sedans. Sure, they're quicker, but you've got quite a bit of extra weight up front, which is harder on brakes and tires, shifts

Also, I'd much sooner pay $30k for a pristine Fleetwood limo. Pimp level 90.

I'll bet the chap in his car who was in a coma was probably pretty damned maimed...

From what I've read, the C6, while stouter than the TH400, is a bigger power sink. So, the TH400 can be built to handle the torque required to lift the front tires of big 1/4 mile beasts like this on launch while not sapping the top end out of an engine.

Youtube search "Screaming Jimmy." That's the nickname of the 71-series Detroit Diesel engine. Turn your 'phones up and you'll know where the engine got that nickname...

First thing I thought of. Thanks for posting that!

Which... he isn't. He's selling for less than just the parts — read the ad. It's a little difficult to follow, but he's got more into it than he's asking.

Good lord, crack-pipers! Read his parts list! Even discounting his labor estimates, he's got at least $3k more than his asking in parts.
