The vast majority of that list is straight up hideous, the rest are meh.

The Porsche... it’s a joke, right?!

I would be happy to acquire a Miata and sell it to you for $60k!

There are Miatas that cost $60k?!?!

Peeps keep saying that Vettes are a dime-a-dozen and they’re everywhere. But I see 10x more plastic cladded Challengers, Mustangs, and Camaros on the road in my travels. Used C7 and C8 Vette prices are ridiculous these days, as are most sports cars, but I still like ripping 2nd gear in a Z51 C6 to 75+ mph.

I’ve ridden in a storm automatic C4 on 200 treadware tires on an autocross, it was possibly the most impressive car I’ve ridden in, in the 10 years I’ve been autocrossing. They are phenomenal performance cars and the performance deal of the century.  The hate isn't for the vehicle, it's for the culture, like Harley

They’ve been doggedly heading down this road for decades. Even their boom in the 90s and early 00s was more in spite of Harley management than because of it.

I typed a similar comment and then deleted it. HD is in the business of making money, that’s it. They’re no different than any other major brand.  HD doesn’t care about DEI any more than Bud Light did.  They care about money.  That’s it.  Money.

Bud Light didn’t. This seems like the exact same scenario. Both brands went from making some people angry to making everyone angry and the ones that were angry to begin with aren’t appeased.

No sample photos? How does one access the cameras in whatever city I am in?

Only when you don’t factor what the total travel time is. Being in teh air for two hours is only part of the trip. Time spent traveling to the airport, going through security, waiting at the gate... etc. Just a random anecdote, but for me to fly from Michigan to Kansas for the holidays is technically a one hour flight

IMO, I think consumers are just fed-up with the uncertain costs associated with booking through cheap-ass airlines. One knows the listed seat price is complete bullshit, because nearly every single thing after the advertised cost is an additional cost. Seat location, bags, carry-ons, water/pop, etc. are all known

Air travel in general is just a necessary evil at this point. Getting through an airport (in the US) is a test of patience for security, then you get ripped off for basic food. A small cup of grapes going through an airport over the weekend was $9.99... The airport is loud, people making queues across walkways, people

It has to be this. At least a 3rd gen Camaro can be made into something decent.

Does the Mustang II count as a sports car? If so that.

I hate to say it, but $100k is the new $75k. Cars generally have gotten more expensive across the board, especially performance cars. I think a better way to look at Corvette prices is to compare them to their competitors of the time. For example:

The biggest issue for them is they do not include their flights on aggregator sites.  Not sure of the reason for that, but most people go to Expedia, Kayak and the like when booking travel.  That simple change would probably fix their issues.

The driver might have walked away without injuries, but not with clean underwear. 

That the driver walked away from the wreck without any injuries is pretty astonishing.

Yeah, Darwin can’t do everything. Gotta arrest some too.
