For the Honda Magna. Your move asymmetric turbine wheel equipped ‘84 Corvette.

81-86 CJ8 Scrambler

Ride the Cisalpin to Lake Geneva and continue onwards to Budapest via Vienna with a soundtrack befitting a Roger Moore-era Bond movie chase scene.

See for yourself...

Picked one up at Target and have been playing it for wayyyy too long tonight. Yeah the cords are short, there’s no USB adapter, and a couple of the game choices are a little esoteric but most of the big hits are there, with Gran Turismo being the obvious exception.

Qantas is going to start flying to Chicago from Brisbane. In honor of the ‘85 Bears the outbound flight is 85, and the return is 86 to honor their victory in Super Bowl XX.

Phil is the local guard cat back in my old neighborhood in Connecticut. Pictured here with the neighbor’s Corvair.

There’s a time and place for vinyl roofs, and it is on a full-size premium American motorcar from the 80s. Also green Cadillac is best color Cadillac.

Oh man, this commercial is so 90s it hurts. Pretentious voice-over, vaguely jazzy soundtrack, cryptic “deep thought” title cards. I thought it had been lost to time, but the local VCR to Youtube guy back home found a copy.

The Ford Bronco was the most talked about vehicle in America.

What appears to be rolled rubber roofing used for panel repair.   Apparently a different kind of car needs a different kind of Bondo.

Conan has uploaded a bunch of his old remote segments to YouTube. This one is still my favourite - his show aired at 2:40am, and well you can imagine how things went. Pure comedy gold.

So the Mother-in-Law needs a good used AWD SUV to replace her second gen Kia Sportage. She likes the RAV4s, but I’m finding a lot of similar year/similar mile RX350s for not much more money. I’m thinking the 3.5L V6 might be worth the premium on the four banger, plus the RX’s are a much nicer place to be. Educate me…

Miami Air charter flight from Gitmo to Jacksonville overran the runway in bad weather and ended up in the river about 90 minutes ago. All are well, but two pilots are probably looking for new employment.

Disappointingly it does not come with Fig Newtons or a pack of Big Red.

DaftRyosuke’s Silver Seraph post reminded me I needed to post this amazing promo video from the Silver Spirit/Mulsanne introduction. It even has the Rolls-Royce of early 80s synthesizer soundtracks. Enjoy, fellow owner/drivers.

Exciting visitor at the kids bus stop today! A honest looking late 80's Defender 90 2.5 Tdi 3 door van. Not even a 50 footer, with obvious mismatched tires (Runway Enduros FTW on the back) and bubbling at the bottom of the door. Still, could be a great project for a Land Rover enthusiast at the right price, and…

I’ll start: A&M is so desperate for students it needs to advertise on gas pumps.
