I hope you are right.

I don’t know why I have always had a soft spot for C3 corvettes (maybe it’s me being from New Jersey). I had to vote NP since it is a C3 for less than 10k. Looks like it would actually be a fun project car.

Is it a conventional automatic?

I love that I am reading this while I am on a business trip in an area that defines itself by the horses (Chincoteague, VA).

That isn't any worse than the ones on an aftermarket big brake kit (Brembo, Stoptech, etc.). All said, that isn't an obscene amount to keep such an awesome car.

The old guys doing fun things with cars is what made the show. Porter's book explained a key point: the further from cars they got, the worse a bit/segment got.

I always get sad when I see an E39 with the M-tech front bumper and not the rear bumper too. It was the first appearance mod I did on my Dinan 540iT, it really balances it out. Mileage isn’t too bad for the year, it has had a bunch of the big maintenance done, has a manual (we’ll assume is done properly - all modules…

Your friend sounds more Libertarian leaning than Republican, but conservative in his own lifestyle.

I had a similar issue with my 2000 BMW 540iT. Fortunately, I pulled the codes at the lot and found it was nothing more than a vacuum leak and went along with it anyway. The car had a stack of paper work that showed a previous mechanic had tried to fix it, but couldn’t and likely didn’t flag it back to the owner. Found…

So, Evans is reportedly screaming at the audience and what not. How are the other hosts behaving when things go poorly with the audience? Did LeBlanc have a similar reaction?

That is my first thought. I imagine the training exercises and evaluations are to figure out if these will have a well defined and beneficial role.

If you are planning to use the OBD2 dongle with a GoPro for data logging with a program such as RaceChrono, you may want to look for a bluetooth one. I’m not sure if you can connect this with a GoPro over its WiFi. Also, as the reviews have stated, connecting to the OBD2 WiFi will likely disconnect your phone from…

It’s like F1 thought that Monaco was just too wide and spacious.

I just picked up a Z3 for fun and it came with some awful wheels and a cheap stereo. I keep doing the same thing and deflecting that it was the previous owner! Working on making it mine.

I definitely agree with you, Jason. I still don’t get the vitriol for the Panamera. Also, thanks for articulating the issue with the Mercedes - I could never figure out a way to describe the rear of it and why I didn’t like it. Saggy is definitely the right term.

The idea of there being a Bernie Eccelstone or France skin suit is a little horrifying. It means they can never die, only the robot underneath that wears them.

I like your restomod idea. That would be pretty cool.

That line threw me off. LeBlanc’s stunt sounded perfectly in line with the Top Gear brand.

There is this white, manual, NA Miata around the corner from my house that hasn’t moved in at least two years. It is owned by this elderly couple that appear to have some health issues (a nurse/relative checks on them daily and I don’t think I have seen them outside). It is slowly rusting in a few spots and just dying…

If it drives and looks like like a shrunken Model S, I’m excited.
