Savage, but not inaccurate.

I think you’ll need another X. Even the 911 RSR sells for over a million today. I don’t imagine anybody can bring out an unlimited racer for less than seven digits. Maybe not even under eight.

Looks similar to the one on my wife’s late not-lamented Beretta:

Pretty sure Jerry Seinfeld is still pretty happy about buying the last air-cooled 911 off the line.

I’m guessing not, unless he wrote the check directly to the United Way. I think FCA gets to apply the tax write-off, but the buyer just gets to pay for the cars.

If you’re drinking mass-produced macro brews these days, it’s your own fault. There’s so much good beer being produced in the US these days you’re spoiled for choice. Unless your main criteria for beer is “must come in a 30-pack for under $20" you can find plenty of good stuff.

I swear Ford had some kind of viscous coupling in the steering column back in the 70s. Every one I drove had absolutely no steering feedback (unless you count squealing tires). Today’s video games have better road feel than those cars.

If it’s been in Oregon all its life, rust is probably not a real concern. 30yo rubber will definitely be an issue, though.

The cells might be only a couple of bucks, but the cost to disrupt production by pulling and inspecting packs (some of them already installed), plus sending some back for repair, is probably on the order of tens of thousands of dollars by the time all is said and done. Probably not enough to be a deterrent, but not a

Yeah, but to be fair Porsche will also offer factory options like “917 on the Mulsanne straight” or “956 at Sebring” or “919 at the ‘Ring”.

If I had a spotter or teammate, I wouldn’t be asphyxiwanking!

My folks’ ‘72 Country Squire was the same, except I believe the spare was on the passenger side.

All the Troopers and Rodeos in salt states rusted away decades ago. Fun little trucks but they melted like cotton candy on a humid day.

And by “some maintenance” we mean “any maintenance”.

LOL, my first was a ‘72 Pontiac Catalina my parents gave me after they were denied any trade-in value when they bought their new car. What a tank!

My daughter gets called “penalty weight” when I’m mad at her. Usually when she’s disappeared just when it’s time to leave.

What’s a Subaru Outback then? I was surprised that they didn’t include one of those in this test.

LOL, sure they will. In just five years, I’ll bet. Today, though, they’re crashing into parked police cars.
