So this car has gone 9 miles, and every one of them likely on or off a car carrier.

Yep, they don’t take well to revs. 4,500 redline is pretty low. Bought mine with broken piston rings, it had 116,000 km on it. Aka 72,000 miles.

Pigeon shit hall of fame! Those are some welds I’d like to see. I think I’m speaking for more than myself in saying inspecting Ferrari welds will take more than a walk to the garage. Pictures?

Have you seen any car prior to the mid 70's? Refresh every year! Refresh in the middle of the year! So fresh!

$3500 CDN? Nice Price!

As someone who lives in a city of 250,000, twice-a-week street sweeping is unfathomable. They sweep the streets once in the spring here, to pick up all the gravel they put down all winter.

Those rear seats might be comfortable (or not), but jeez, they look like they’re made of plywood. Such flat, very square, much firm, wow.

So... what’s wrong with the countryman? The back seats aren’t buckets, and they fold down.. looks like it can haul some dogs to me.

This is gold sir, a star for you.

I love it when people review old cars and they blame maintenance issues on the car. It’s not Porsche’s fault the brakes are squishy, it’s because the lines the fluid needs replacing. Or both.

Starred for Fiero seats. They are the supportive, yet soft glove that cradles my 5'9" 160lb self around corners. For what it’s worth a friend of mine in the 6'6" range also found them comfortable.

So many questions, the answer is always Fiero (when it’s not Miata).

Cheap? Wedge? Quirky? Handling! Fiero! 7-10K will get you a very decent 88 GT.

Anything can be raced:

Starred for the 1.0 EB love. Much want.

Lurker here, had to make an account to comment on this one, even if it sits in the greys unread. Lovely article David, I’m usually not a fan of the “put car parts in my dishwasher” articles.
