Now I know the French taunters weren’t lying when they said their master already had a Holy Grail.

A Pinto, a late 90's Ford Windstar and a few too many jerry cans of gasoline.
I’m gonna have to concede that one.
Yamaha. Besides motorcycles, they made engines for the Taurus SHO and every obnoxious synthesizer keyboard in the 1980s. And your TV.
Well, Tesla does have a bit of a history of being unable to secure their windbags.
Yanni.
Reminds me of the first time I tried to park my F-150 in high school.
Got my ‘89 Firebird, then COVID hit. I took the time to get it painted and now it’s almost ready for Radwood.
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.
I love a good marker light. Check out the one from my Cutlass - it’s an Olds Rocket emblem with a light inside of it. It gloriously sticks out from the side, reminding anyone who comes near the rear corner, “Hey! This is an Oldsmobile!”
(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.
