I remember when the euro-spec version of the Renaut Fuego was first driven by the American press, they practically drooled over it. An aerodynamic coupe powered by a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine sounded like a dream; there was practically nothing like it on the road in its price range. I think one author compared it…

Except that these weren’t a disaster. The selling point was that they could be driven on a motorbike licence and were cheap enough that they were a viable alternative to a moped/motorbike. When working in a factory/down a mine the appeal of arriving and going home with some protection from the British weather was…

MN? It’s liberal-er than WI, has a higher median income than SF and LA, and really close to WI! (As a former SoCal resident, I feel ya on the snow bit.)

People mentioning the Corrado being the best know nothing about the Corrado.

The exact same car you drove in High School. It shows you take care of things.

This is definitely an important question. Insuring a car like this with a policy that limits you to 5,000 miles a year, or paved roads only, every third sunday coinciding with a full moon... this would make the entire endeavour rather pointless for someone who wants to actually drive the damn thing like it’s meant to…

Citroen CX mirrors. Citroen CX mirrors everywhere.

90k and the interior is beautiful until you hit the windows.

Not as cool, but I loved my car; it was this color, too. Took this to Reno and back. The now-ex totaled it a few months later. I should have divorced him then.

Safety systems in general. See that? That’s a graph of U.S. traffic fatalities over time relative to the total population. It’s at its lowest levels now since before World War I, and it’s not because Americans are getting better at driving. (Probably the opposite.)

I’d prefer a P1800 any time, but they never made a song about it.

I’ve been hearing ‘put a V8 in it’ for 30 years. Let me just say the reply I want to make isn’t polite and leave it at that.

Because you need a backup plan after escalating situations into shit like this? I’ve got something for you:

Haha, I have a Volvo that does that - the defrost button doesn’t mean “throw some of that air up on the windshield, will ya?” - it means DIVERT ENGINE POWER TO HVAC FANS, FASTEN SEATBELTS, IT’S SCORCHED EARTH DEFROSTIN’ TIME MOTHERFUCKERS! KAAAA-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH

All newer cars. What happened to the ostentatious interiors of American land barges? The stupidly eccentric French controls? Where are my bench seats?

Although it wears the flag of the greatest threat (historically)to the United States.

You’re definitely not alone in your interest in coding as a career. Programming is one of the highest paying and most in-demand careers you can find these days—and it doesn’t require a four-year degree. Coding boot camps promise to get you job-ready in a relatively short amount of time.

Let's arm our drones with translated classic Western literature, music files, seeds, water and supplies. Maybe if we start dropping those payloads, things could improve. The money we save on munitions can go towards funding smart, private American businesses working to create alternative, sustainable energy…
