I like it more than what they did with the new one!

considering that the Blue Oval will sell one of these things to any geek off the street with no special license or qualifications required.
Valterri just seems like a solid ass dude. He was a fantastic #2 at Merc, and he deserves a seat in F1. He’s not very flashy though, so I’m always worried he will get shuffled out for younger shoutier talent.
Old classmates are pulling into the parking lot. It’s a calm day with a quiet breeze. Suddenly in the distance an echo of Flight of the Valkyries begins to become audible. The wind picks up, the noise is unbearable, dust and sand blowing everywhere. Suddenly there is a thud and it becomes quiet.
Cheap used Maserati’s are the greatest terror on unsuspecting dopes. Forums for the Ghibli specifically are full of people who looked and saw “i cAn gEt a MaSeRaTi fOr tHaT MuCh!” and subsequently had their lives ruined.
For my money, the Granturismo is one of Maserati’s nicest designs. They’re also dirt cheap to buy after a few years. I assume they’re maintenance nightmares, like all Italian cars, but still...
I went with California, but Lusso is up there too.
While i don’t think this question has a definitive answer, Jaguar E Type, Alfa Romeo Type 33 Stradale, Merc Benz 300 SL are deservedly among the favorites. I’m just surprised nobody seems to have mentioned the 1974 Countach LP400 yet.....just look at it. The later 1980s versions became excessively gaudy, but the…
Lots of good options here, and many of my own favorites have already been suggested. One that I love that always seems forgotten, however, is the Lotus Elite. One of the rare cars that somehow combines gorgeous lines with a cheery disposition that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Like meeting a supermodel with a…
Saoutchik Bugatti T50. You know you want it.
Looks mean
For me it’s always been the 1966 Chevelle SS. It was really peak for the boxy muscle cars that mostly went away in ‘68. The ‘66 does it for me thanks to its wrap-around grill giving it an elegant yet angry snarl, it’s C-pillars (technically b-pillars I guess) that stretch past the rear window because looks are more…
Have to give some love to the C2 convertible
This may seem a bit funky, because of my previous comment a couple QOTD’s ago about “manual elitists”, but the 5th generation Viper is my vote for the best looking.
The original Lamborghini Diablo. Jet fighter styling but without the extraneous vents and angles that become popular later on.
Gatekeeping also needs to die.
This “built not bought” shit. Don’t get me wrong, backyard skills and DIY is awesome. And everyone should learn a little maintenance knowledge at a minimum. But this notion that paying someone to do the job correctly makes you less of an enthusiast or even worse, a lesser person, needs to go away. If it’s money that…
Here’s a complete list of all of the non-routine maintenance that I’ve had to do in almost 90k miles of driving my 435 hp 2015 Mustang GT:
