Excellent story dude, I had an 86 Prelude 2.0 Si in High School with 200K when I got it. I smoked so many Eclipses, Civic EX, CRX’s, Hatchbacks and even a 3rd gen :). That car was so awesome, Cool and reliable. I miss it, it hooked up soooo well, Rev it to 3k, dump the clutch and punch it!!! rev to 6.5, shift.....…

If I could give you a thousand stars I would! I tip my hat to you fine sir!

I’d love to see them succeed, but I’d hate to see them fail. Because really who knows where that missile is going to land. I trust neither their ability to get it right, nor their integrity to actually fire it at a meteor, vs ‘oops we nuked Turkey/San Francisco/etc.’

So your saying this is a good candidate for a LS swap, with a 6 speed manual.. :P

Jalopnik, you are slipping. You didn’t answer the all-important question:

LOL @ Beaver Buck

Even with my beaver buck at 0.70 US, I'm all drooly over this. Classic BMW looks, and if there's nothing unsaid, even a bit of dough into new wheels and new steering wheel isn't that much!

Perhaps. Or maybe Charles Morgan knows something we don’t. Either way, at the age of 22, I was brewing coffee for the office people in London, and although my mochas were nothing short of beautiful, they weren’t quite Giulia Sprints.

Hmmm...maybe if you put two Mazda rotaries in it - I don’t think one would be enough...

I agree. I love blasphemy cars, a while back on the GRM boards there was a dude stuffing a subie flat six in an old Ferrari 308. Love it.

Wow, I can’t believe Giugiaro was only 17 when he designed this. That is simply incredible. One of my all time favorite cars.

Great flip. Excellent flexibility. Good poise. Shame he didn’t stick the landing.

Hold up. V8, stick shift, Volvo wagon, AND 3rd row seats? Know any good kidney selling places, I only need one.

I live there too and I wrote the article, maybe judging him for where he lives isn’t the best response either...

You’re correct, there are plenty of crackheads out there who would love to pay $9k for this fucking monstrosity.

I have but only one star to give for that comment.

This is not only Crack Pipe, it’s morally depraved.
