That was a fun one. I was so torn up when I couldn't play it anymore on newer operating systems. I still have the soundtrack though.

You're right. I'm 5'10" and I shoehorned myself into the back of the Veloster and was surprised how much headroom I had - until I looked up and saw that the hatch was open. I tried again with it closed and my head was up in the roof. The Cadillac CTS Coupe has a similarly useless back seat, but naturally my friend who

If they're looking for Bigfoot, Ford is a good place to start.

I'm sure Fantasy Junction would be happy to sell that Bentley to you for $200,000 if you insisted.

My high-dollar dream car is the 1967 Shelby GT500. In 2008 during the muscle car bubble some of these cars were going for $200k+.

It's what you get for having a domestic performance sedan with wheels made in England. :) The biggest failure my car had in recent memory was a relay that burned up on a hot day, caused the engine to overheat to within an inch of its life when the fan wouldn't come on. Well, the electronic ride control compressor also

I know I'm a broken record practically every time I speak up here, but I nominate the Pontiac 6000 STE.

So get some badges off of a Cadillac Eldorado Touring Coupe. :)

They could have been prototypes or test mules that had outlived their usefulness, or even cars that fell off the transporter and couldn't be sold at a dealer. Sending a Cutlass Calais test mule to Boston to crush does seem a bit ridiculous, though.

Electric cars with ski racks just don't do it for me...

@OOglebooze: I always found it interesting in a similar way, how whenever Top Gear dislikes a certain Mercedes product, that particular episode always seems to be sponsored by Mercedes when aired on BBC America.

At least it was only an LE model...

@K5ING: That reminds me of the relatively thankless task of creating a 1:18 scale 1986 El Camino from card stock, transparency film and foam core, with steel rolling axles, clear windows and a full interior. I did it because nobody makes a 1/18 '86 Camino diecast and I wanted a model in that scale. The official story

And the sequel to my first one.

I know you guys are getting tired of hearing this, but my childhood family car was the blue 1985 Pontiac 6000 STE I still own. My parents bought it in 1987, they brought me home from the hospital in it when I was born in 1988.

The local turkeys don't use violence. They're more likely to stage a sit-in and just block traffic.
