Have you met our Lord and Savior the CTS-V Wagon (manual of course)?

On point as the driver has a mask.

I have never before used this quote as often as I have in the last few months.

This is a strong COTD candidate.

At this point I fully expect Google’s AI to become sentient within the next few months.

I agree. I bought a decent amount of Toyota stock near the bottom of the crash. I also bought Ford... more on a “let’s be a river boat gambler” investment. I am much more confident in Toyota’s stability than Ford’s. 

1st Gear: 80% drop in profit still means they are making a profit. I would see this as a pretty good silver lining given the situation. Plenty of others are talking losses.

Gonna say Ford Windsor small-block, based on what I can see of the shape of the valve-cover mating surface and the exhaust manifolds. Also the oddly-shaped balancer.

Did some quick checks using Google Earth Pro and found an obvious rusting wreck on the beach in that area circa 2004. One of the best feature in GE Pro is the historical imagery, you can just adjust the slider and see all the archive aerial stuff they have.

Yeah, might first thought was 1970-something vehicles, then went straight to a mob disposal.

You do realize that if we give him too many zany ideas we will have to post bail for him, right?

David Tracy could put all 4 together into one and drive it to Moab next year. Keep Jalopnik going.

“It might be why I’m into abandoned places to this day, it was an amazing piece”

Should be the Regenmeister himself, Michael Schumacher.

Vera, vera fine photography.

KidstonTV did a short documentary on this era of Bugatti and the factory about 4 years ago. Worth a watch if you are interested.
