R56 MINI coopers with French built motors have a bone to pick with that statement. Literally worse reliability than early 80's GM cars (which is saying something!). That Peugeot motor single handedly destroyed MINI’s reputation in North America. Failed timing chains, Failed water pumps, Leaking oil everywhere, random

In the same way that there is nothing wrong with Italian build quality.

What planet do you live on?

Indeed:

Similar color dress too.

You mean,Trucks, Trucks, and only Trucks’ FoMoCo, was going to sell cars in the US, but only if they could get cheap foreign labor to make them and bring them over here?

This is a great picture! There’s a bizarre density of desert-stored chassis out there. If you do any of the drives in the deserts of California, and go off the major roads, you’ll inevitably find mini-junkyards with projects that were started (or not) and forgotten. Makes me think I should load up a trailer and go on

You’ve come a long way, baby!

Hopefully, this is the first in a series of Buick engined one-offs.

Now playing

And also was on Archer.  The man gave me a lot of enjoyment over the years, it was good to see him get standing ovations when he showed up at Barrett-Jackson a couple of times, throwing out a couple of salty lines and generally soaking in it.  

No I didn’t.  You get the torque of the big engine from the little one when it has the hybrid component.  It’s totally better for in town hauling to get a smaller w/hybrid. 5 MPG difference there.

Bert Reynolds made a 180HP Oldsmoble powered, Automatic transmissioned, malaise era Trans Am cool. THAT takes skill and talent, and why we honor him to this day.

This man is the reason I took delivery of a Black on Black Trans Am with the requisite T-Tops 2 weeks after college graduation. RIP, Bert.

Would James Wood, if he had the wood.

With what Porsche’s are going for these days, this well cared for example at reasonable miles is a steal. Hell, this is what a Miata with that amount of miles goes for these days.

Team Mahindra here.  Chrysler look like idiots to me.

The Google algorithms aren’t inherently biased here, they’re being manipulated by humans to be biased.

It’s clearly hyperbolic. Not all men are trash. Some are creeps.
