I’d respectfully disagree, while there was a period there where they had lost their way a bit (Series 17 springs to mind, as does the absolutely wretched, painful to watch India Special, which is the only episode I refuse to watch ever again), they really were back in stride for Series 21 and 22.

This is the correct answer. The entire car is ruined by those stupid headlights. I can’t understand it, they had the money to make a car that good from a technical standpoint, and then they let it be ruined by something as simple as the LIGHTS? How much could it have possibly cost to come up with something better?

Stock NA Miatas will always do 27 MPG no matter what. I used to calculate it every time I filled up. Drive like I’m in Ronin for an entire tank? 27 MPG. Drive like one of the 60 year old beards who own these cars and shift at 2k RPM every gear? 27 MPG. Drive on the highway at 80 MPH? 27 MPG.

It was honestly the…

Oh look, Tavarish has gone even further down the road of offering shitty opinions that no one else in their right mind would consider reasonable in the name of getting clicks.

But hey, repairing all those 15 year old overpowered German cars can’t be cheap, he’s gotta make it work somehow.

This is the face of the new subprime auto loan industry. Clearly this man shouldn’t even be allowed inside a BMW dealer, much less able to drive off the lot in a car that wasn’t stolen.

“Soft drink cabinet”

So, you agree with Borgward’s pathetic minions!?

C4s are a good mix actually, even the old guys are more interesting than other generations:

Personally I’d much rather have any 1996 manual C4 over the C5. The C5 looks restrained, neutered almost. It’s not a bad looking car, but it’s not as out there as a Corvette should be. And that’s just the exterior, the interior is flat out worse than the late C4 in every way.

Also, there are those who say the LT4…

Plus, now we know that if it doesn’t meet emissions requirements they can just lie, what with everyone only focusing on diesel emissions ATM.

I was selling fireworks this past year and I saw an old guy with a BLUE one and he actually wound out all of 1st and 2nd gear when I asked him to

This example was still funny because there was a nice little twist to it, plus the bird

That 4cyl actually performed quite well in that car.

Also, I’m pretty sure that was the only color they sold the Milan in

My friend’s father has a Milan, and while it’s a nice car, it honestly does feel exactly like a well optioned Fusion of similar vintage. I think you could get a decent deal on them back in the day though, considering Mercury wasn’t long for the world.

I think its pretty much all in the headlights. They’re just.... ugh. So bad.

I thought the coke mirror was standard on all Vectors?

The drivetrain and all the technical facts of the EB110 are fantastic but then they went and made it look like a fucking vacuum cleaner, it’s even uglier than the Veyron.

Ah yes, the South Florida Special interior option. Classy.

Just now seeing the parallels...

My Uncle had one of these. Can confirm it is way too fast for it’s own good, and I loved it.
