My dad leased one of these in 1999; it was a hoot to drive back when 370hp was ohmygod-level power in a sedan. (well, to us anyway) Jag’s ownership by Ford helped its reliability, but I’d still be concerned about waking the dormant gremlins after 19 years, and this one’s asking 3x the KBB value. ND. 

krhodes explained it best. 

Can we dial back the drama setting in the title please? 

If you’re picturing things levitating in the cabin from negative Gs you’ll be disappointed. 

Musk: LOL, suckers...

Good eye. Retracting the flaps too soon would cause settling from the loss of lift. 

Which says nothing about its stability. 

Cracks me up that the seller includes “cash price” in the ad.

The ‘75 Monte Carlo I had in high school had the exact same interior. Incredible. 

While that looks absolutely idiotic to me, stancing doesn’t represent the same risk to pedestrians because of limiting visibility as the squatted trucks. 

You’re assuming that kid survived his/her childhood. Odds are with a mother like that they didn’t. 

The 3rd reason: stupid for stupid’s sake. 

IIRC there were a number of fatalities from rollovers in Samurais. That’s not propaganda. 

This thins is giving me Samurai flashbacks. High CG, narrow track - how do you make something like that safe in 2024?

Chunky Boi: Hey Vlad, can we hit the drive-thru for lunch? I’m hungry.
Vlademort: Da, you have McDonald’s here? I go to the one in Moscow Square..

That’s the ‘73 car. Plastic nose with chrome rear bumper. 

I had a ‘69 300hp roadster 25 or so years ago and loved it. The prev owner had done the paint, top and interior so it was a gas & go car. Wish I had it now; I’d swap heads and cam for 400ish hp; maybe even a 5spd Tremec.

That looks like it came right out of the Havana Pimp catalog. 

The 3rd pedal is rare in a late C3, and for the asking price it’s a NP even with the cosmetic issues. With high-flow alum heads and the right cam, 400hp is easy and will wake that slug right up. Bonus points for adding a 5-speed Tremec. If the prebuy inspection doesn’t turn up anything major it’s a win.

Sure the car will need some work but it’s a Vette, not a Porsche and the fixes won’t kill you financially. Assuming no frame cancer. (source: Me, who owned a ‘69 roadster)
