Definitely the Starion.  Underappreciated at the time.

I can’t decide between two of my personal attainable favorites:

and room for both 2 people and a cooler in the back seat.

Yeah, I’ve said that before and ended up with a dead car and a magical dearth of people interested in buying said car’s parts. 

Impossibly cheap Mercedes still listed 4 days later, who would have guessed. I appreciate the seller’s thrift in not wasting Craigslist’s bandwidth with photos or additional details, it’s your problem to roll the dice here, not theirs.

You don’t need to be a Mercedes mechanic- just know something about wrenching. Worst case scenario it’s time for an LS swap. 

That would be a ridiculous move. The M119 motor is among the best Benz v8s ever.

If you are a Mercedes mechanic this could be a great deal. Otherwise, no.

WASHINGTON, DC–A study released Monday by the American Public Transportation Association reveals that 98 percent of Americans support the use of mass transit by others.

I find the Cayenne to be a case study in lazy, ugly car design, but when you chop the top off it definitely benefits from my ironic enjoyment of cars like the CrossCab. I might be okay with this.

No fucking thank you.

I’m just a Gran Turismo fan. I’ve been playing it since day 1. I don’t really game on my PC. I rarely game anymore really, but GT is the one that hooks me for hours.

This is a cool site.  I shall be a regular visitor forthwith 

Not one of those examples had a manual. That is a big thing. For some of us, its the only thing.

It’s always hard to find a doner when you want one (usually at about 3am on a Sunday after a big night).

You have a cite for that?  It’s news to me.

That’s why you do an EV conversion on a classic car that’s already a safety nightmare. Throw some EV indicators in the outside and you’re all set. 

Nah... Both wrong. A coachbuilt breadvan is the car we deserve...

I fear no W124, or W126 for that matter. True, I did pay someone $1800 to rebuild the transmission last year. And then right after that I busted through a rusted out brake line AND a fuel line collapsed. I had an ‘89 that drove like new, and an 85 that drove like shiiiiiiit when I got it. The 85 is more often broken…
