Many years ago I sold a Triumph TR6 that I loved dearly, a car my dad and I painstakingly restored mechanically. I sold it because I was young and had a baby and needed money.

I agree...everytime I see one I kind of fantasize about owning one.

In the 90's I wanted an SVT Contour but couldn’t afford it, so I found a budget version. A 1996 Altima SE, with a sunroof and a 5 speed. It had the same engine as a 240 SX (transversely mounted) and made 150hp, had discs on all corners, aluminum wheels on pretty big sticky meats and KYB struts/shock...it proved to be

My tired ass Jeep Liberty gets worse MPG. I hear mixed driving returns 22mpg. Give or take. Not too bad for a barge.

Oh hell yes. I’m proud to admit I want one. Especially a Ecoboost one. 365hp TT V6 and AWD and fucking built in refrigerator does not suck

That era 300M was pretty darn attractive

They have sex appeal, but not the soul and personality of an old British car. Not to me at least. Just something quirky yet cool about vintage British iron. Not sure what it is....they were outdated even for their own time, and yet it’s like they just didn’t give a shit? Somehow that resonates with me. Perhaps because

Don’t mind them. Sadly, you’re right.

I love it. I sure do miss a time when Japanese cars didn’t have to look so angry.

The other awesome news is eBay is interested in working with the film maker on other projects. That’s a pretty cool opportunity if it all works out for him.

I don’t deny that....but nobody back then made cars with more soul than the British. :)

I’m partial to the TR5/250 or TR6 myself.

The 280zx, a reminder that not all Japanese cars were reliable cars.

That rules!

Exactly! Film is cool and all, but its a bit of a gimmick in this application. Nonetheless, I admire their passion for the medium. More power to them.

There’s a company called Forward Motion that sells hi-po FWD Mopar parts. At one time in the late 80's/early 90's they claimed the title of the fastest street legal FWD car. It was a badass Dodge Shadow if memory serves me.

This was awesome. Thanks! Now do North Korea next.

I’m a professional video maker. I watched “Zluts” but after just a few seconds I grew kind of tired of the poor audio mix, purposefully shaky camera work, and shots that were way too short. The editing kind of screwed this up....I’m a car guy, I want to see more and hear more of the car, not just lens flares and shaky

Good lord that damn thing is hideous. With the outgoing Accord I had thought, “Well, maybe Honda still has it...the Accord is attractive even if everything else they make is gross” But this new one just proves that all the good designers must have left or been fired. Shame on you Honda.

Love this. In high school a friend had one. It took a quart of oil with every tank of gas. Was basically a two stroke.
