Wasn’t this the plot of the movie “2010: The Year We Made Contact”?!

Bye bye, Buick.

Congrats, Mercedes!

Gimme this limo from Cannonball Run 2. That way, my body can be propped up in the fake driver’s seat up front, while someone in the back drives the car around, freaking out as many people as possible. I’ll set up a trust to keep this going on as long as necessary.

That Turkish coffee is strong stuff, man.

Was about to hit ND with both fists, when it occurred to me it might be worth the money just to make sure this thing was cast into the volcano at the heart of Mordor.

“...and found ourselves sitting in dead traffic between Cheyenne and Laramie...”

I’d love to see a new Subaru that calls back to the GL/Leone from the early 1980's. Give it headlights that look a bit like rectangular quad headlights, that egg-crate grill, the cyclops eye, red 4x4 badging and those white wagon wheels.

Anything the rental car company will give you and take back without asking a lot of questions.

Lol - my ‘68 Cutlass has an original AM radio that fuzzes out when you get too high on the dial where NPR lives, but comes in loud and clear for conservative talk. I try not to let my car’s opinions ruin my day.

Distributor... sorry... Opti-Spark on an LT-1 engine. Whatever engineer decided to make this fragile plastic distributor replacement and slap it on the front of the motor behind the water pump really, really hates people.

This glitch could have affected Subaru radios too, but we would have no way of knowing.

Watching the downward spiral of the Chevelle/Malibu is a tough one. The car really peaked in 1970 and everything from 1964-1972 looked awesome (IMHO). Bumper regulations made them awkward in the mid-70's, the boxy Malibu of the 80's lacked character, and the boring fleet car of the 90's is something I don’t like to…

Challenge accepted... by the X-Suzu!

Even as a beater I can’t talk myself into buying a BMW that looks like a Ford Escape.

ND for me here - I don’t hate the Mustang II, but this is the most unattractive flavor of Mustang II. I did check for the card on IMCDB and there is a similar Mustang with notes that there was more than one, so this ‘77 may have done double duty with a ‘76 of the same color scheme. It would take more work than it’s…

Alas, my winter wrenching plans had to take a back seat to home renovation. We’re gutting and remodeling the master bath, so the contactor asked for some garage space. This meant moving more poor little Spitfire to a storage facility for a bit. Then they brought in a dumpster to catch all the debris, and placed it in…

Love. It’s what makes a Subaru a Subaru.

I was baffled reading the twitter threads on this video. So many people picking sides and engaging in keyboard war over who was in the right here when its beyond obvious that both of these drivers were complete ass-hats.
