I never thought I’d see a future where a Hyundai slowly became a rolling Playstation controller.

I had a 1991 Corvette (obnoxious teal with a 6-speed - coupled to the L98 engine, it made a really fun car). I took it to a local shop on the recommendation of a friend. I asked (as nicely as possible) if they worked on Corvettes - sometimes mechanics don’t want to deal with them, and they assured me they could. After

Delorean. I feel like they didn’t even try to paint the cars.

Not on board with this take, purely because after selling Oldsmobile to GM, Ransom Olds went on to for REO, which remained in business until 1975. Oldsmobile may not have been as big if GM had not stepped in and I’m not even criticizing GM’s management of the brand, but Ransom Olds was clearly capable of making the

In 1901, Oldsmobile had a whole lineup of cars ready for mass production... until the factory caught fire. A couple of factory workers managed to push one prototype out and it was the only car they saved - the Curved Dash Oldsmobile.

Can’t wait until these guys release their fruit punch flavored antifreeze. 

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.

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.

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
