Now, if it was a Fiero...

And it’s great for ironing out reliability issues, too.

They could make a really impressive machine if they put the 370 on a diet.

Well, that’s an opinion.

Oh, geez. I didn’t realize that Honda collaborated with the Brits before the Sterling. That they succeeded with Triumph helps to explain why they thought that might be a good idea.

Nope. They weren’t that much fun to begin with, and the cost of a rebuilt tranny drives the price past what it’s worth. That said, if you can handle the transmission rebuild yourself, you could end up with a reliable grocery-getter for a decent price, but if that’s your aim, just buy a Tercel and be done with it.

What an asshat.

Wrong. They’re super fun little cars.

Hoist? The engine drops out. You need a lift. That’s just two grand, IF you have the room for one.

How the hell does your face not dry out? Carmex can only do so much for me.

There are so many pretty Alfas. This is not one of them.

Go to Goodwill and stock up on black jeans and long-sleeved T-shirts. That and wearing nitrile gloves will cut down considerably on clean-up time. Oh, and when you’re finished laundering, run one last load on extra-hot and extra-high water level to scrub out the barrel. Emulsified grease can hang out at the high water…

Unless you’re destitute, always buy the larger pack. When your car is dead in the middle of a snowy parking lot, it’ll be the best $27 upgrade you’ve ever made.

Let me guess - you named your cat IMS Bearing because it always wants to go out?

Oh my god, the pinstripes! So many pinstripes!! And I can’t get over how clean the *shudder* blue interior is. Minus the obligatory dash cracks, of course. Congrats on finding an unmolested example of a unique and comfy GT cruiser, and welcome to the Z family!

Nice enough car, but those wheels are just awful.

I am NOT a Trump supporter, but I’m a big proponent of truth, and cherry-picking the words of our beloved elected Cheeto isn’t ethical. Here are the man’s complete remarks:

Nope. Ten year old Yellow cab. They’re as ubiquitous as cockroaches, and nobody thinks twice about seeing one idling at the curb. Plus, you can install a reliable 500 hp engine in case the cops do happen to ID you and give chase.

The most “Datsun” of Datsuns was probably the Honeybee B-210, not because it was the best car, but because it was emblematic of a foreign company trying soooo hard to fit in that it offered a silly, cartoonish sticker package as an option to make their low-cost cars more appealing to first time buyers.

The “X” is for “X-cessive”.
