I was getting the wiring harness on my Evora replaced last summer, and there was an Aston on the lift, engine out and in pieces basically. Must have been a Vantage V8, circa 2007-2008ish. Anyways, I asked my buddy the garage owner what the story was. “Needs a new engine, gonna run this poor guy about 65, maybe 66.”

I smell a fanboy getting agitated....anyways au contraire my self-assured friend, I have quite the collection of Canton, some old Rotel amps, BA, both NAD and Naim shit, and Sansui turntables. I have Jolida tube amps and Monitor Audio Gold speakers for the playroom. My dad was an audiophile and I spent a good part of

Amazon, iphones, endless plastic crap from China, PS5s, none of that shit needed.

No they don’t, not when they throw the baby out with the bathwater like they did with the lady who was begging to go through and get her mother to the hospital. They’re fucking cunts of the lowest order. 

I have a Lexus GX and I need every cubic inch of space it gives me. Life just finds things I need to haul around. Tiles, wood, furniture, coffee tables, giant canvases, loads of groceries. 5 kids sometimes, snowboards, bikes, skateboards, bags full of boxing gloves and pads and so on. A lot of the time I’m alone in

Or 15 of those Segway go carts, the hopped up version that comes in grey and goes like fucking hell. 

That $7200 is actually $9500 in today’s dollars. Just saying.

First of all, its Bowers and Wilkins. Second of all, you’re not going to impress anyone rattling off the names of a hodgepodge of audio brands that you think should be lumped together. Harman Kardon is the parent company of JBL and Mark Levinson (who you think is high end because Lexus kept crowing about their bespoke

Meh....who cares what the kids are saying. You can say whatever you want and if it’s out of date you can claim you’re saying it ironically which is OK too.

I’ll never understand this sort of thing. If you’re skilled enough to fabricate this, why not create something beautiful and unique? Why ape something that everyone knows this thing is not?

No way. Imagine merging with an anemic engine, overloaded with screaming kids and luggage and lousy rear 3/4 visibility combined with shit handling. This is exactly when you need something to just go when you floor it. 

We’re using “chef’s kiss” a lot these days, no?

The Birds sucked too

The narrator sounds like a Greek or Italian guy from Montreal.

I hear you brother. It’s hard to relate to cars that were from an era way before your time. I’m 45 and I don’t identify with this ‘57 Chevy, but somehow I desire the muscle cars from the 60's, which was 10-15 years before my birth. Interestingly, nothing from the 1980's does it for me, which I clearly remember

One thing I learned from Rust Valley Restorers is that half these cars have rusted frames with fiberglass patches and are totally unsafe. Have to crawl under these and see what’s going, body looks good won’t cut it.

Is it time to see a doctor for the Telsa hate-boner priapism?

6 men? TRIIIIIIGGGEEERRREEED!!!!

Every now and then I’ll host a dinner party. Giant cheese platters, fig and gruyere canape trays, medium-rare sizzling ribeyes, spinach salads, tiramisu, and Sonoma valley cabernets are consumed over hours of lively discussion set to a soundtrack of light RnB or Mazzy Star and Sade. About 30 plates and 100 pieces of
