Why not?
Why not?
Or how about a Banshee?
Here you go: Grand Prix
That's what the "G-meter" was best at—generating laughs!
Yep. Pontiac sure knew how to fill a steering wheel with grey buttons...
I cannot find a pic of it anywhere, but it's still worth nominating: when I bought my '78 VW Dasher diesel station wagon from its original owner back in 1991, it had a Heathkit "G-meter" installed on top of the dash, a woodgrain-festooned box with two LED bars running horizontally.
Isn't the pictured interior from a Pontiac 6000?
Truth be told, Catherine Zeta Jones is much closer to my ideal, so my dream first COTD-girl would have to be Leilani Munter, delivering me whatever the hell she wants. But then, in real life, the first time rarely turns out the way we imagined it!
As a longtime VW/Audi owner (until the early naught-ies, anyway) and once-upon-a-time 996 owner, I think this shit is funny and on the money.
Thanks $kaycog! I am no longer a COTD virgin...but which one of these ladies should deflower me? That's a tough one, since blondes aren't really my bag. But if I had to choose, nostalgia would compel me to choose the first one—I was a teenager in the '80s, and everything about that pic (the pose, the hair (no, it's…
Yep. And I think SuperfastMatt covered that one with his all-encompassing process!
"they were all fun and some I didn't even lose money on!"
Right. I mean, cool story bro, with some nice hedgerow/Nurburgring references, but it wasn't all that informative on how to actually import the car.
So if I distill this "how to" article down to the actual instructions contained therein, it goes something like this:
+1. In reverse chronological order, I've purchased cars over the last couple of years for $450, $500, $999, $2100 (Okay, I splurged—it was a Jag XJR), $1500, $1700, $1100, $250, $600, $1100, free, $800, $1000, and $1000. Granted, they were not unobtainium-Euro-market cars, but adding $2600 on top of the purchase…
That being said, I do like the Elefant.
This makes me nervous—I imagine Audi pimping out the Ducati name, Cagiva-style.
CP. While this is one of the cleaner Corrados I've seen lately, the G60 was and is a pretty lackluster car, and thus not worth a whole hell of a lot even when all of the systems are working properly. If Corrados whet your whistle, I don't know why you'd buy this over a VR6.
"The company plans to build 69 COPO Camaros in 2012—the same amount of legendary COPO ZL1s that left the factory in 1969."
Yeah, I'll wager it has something to do with being a certain age at the time these cars were actively campaigning. To me, the bubble-canopied Group C and GTP cars were just the best looking, best sounding, and most exciting closed-wheel racers to watch. And IMSA in general brought us some crazy-cool machinery and…
