Poor guy had just recovered from that bullet-in-the-fuse-panel incident.
This question is probably the worst part of being born in 1975. Easy choice, though... Triumph TR7
The mid 90's “Hide the C-Pillar” Era. Not only did this make the lines of the car’s profile awkward, but it was a disingenuous attempt to convince people that there was more rear window visibility. I don’t know what it was about this era and the need to make it look like the roof wasn’t connected to the car.
Congrats. You’re officially the first person to spend hours trying to figure out a way to keep a door ON a Jeep.
I now have a mental picture of the entire population of Egypt wearing snuggies while assembling Ikea furniture and it’s glorious.
I’d be more forgiving if there were trigger buttons on the tops of the nubs to fire missiles like in Spy Hunter. Otherwise this is just dumb.
This is not how you become an edge-lord.
(Holds our microphone): So, fellow Jalopnik commenters, I see your comment didn’t get the stars you were hoping to get. What do you have to say about it?
Yep. Mine was a ‘65 convertible, so it had a better suspension than the early Corvairs, but it definitely pushed. The nice thing was that all of it’s tailhappiness was highly predictable. You can get REALLY good a driving a Corvair because you can learn how it’s going to behave quickly.
NP for personal reasons. I had a Miata identical to this one in 1997. I LOVED it. It’s probably the car I most regret selling! The only thing that makes me sad here is the aftermarket stereo. The 1993 black and tan Miata was the only one that came with a rare stereo that including shakers in the seats that shook the…
Major props to the drivers on this one. Having owned a Corvair, I can vouch for how bizarrely it behaves in low traction situations. Stepping on the brakes in snow causes the whole car to slide perpendicular to where you’re traveling. Great for parallel parking, but not much else.
Yes, the optics are really, really bad when you spell it out, and I’ll probably get flamed out for defending something here...
Oil Change.
Dude was not expecting the video to blow up like this. Hope he doesn’t end up with an inflated ego. I never get tired of this stuff.
In 1999 I bought a 1991 Corvette (obnoxious teal with a 6-speed) with less than 60k miles. It was a great car, but I got married and I also had my 1968 Cutlass, so I had to sell it and get something a bit more practical for having a kid. (And I will NEVER sell my Cutlass).
Smaller than my Spitfire or no?
