‘Murrican market. We wants trukks.

Serious question, as I’m not familiar with the BTCC: how “close” was it to a production Cavalier? Are we in the one-off homologation-special range, or in the aughts-NASCAR the only conceptual part they share is the logo?

Here in southeast PA they’re absolute cockroaches. My wife and I divide them by “Antique” (1st and 2nd gen boxies), “classic” (third-gen mail-slot front fascia and split tails) and regular “Cavvy” (which she had, the third-gen refresh, with the lightbar and ducktail out back.) We joke about how the pick-and-pulls in th…

Call me a glamper, but if I can’t at least (containedly) poop in it, I’m out.

Now, yes, but back in the day, there were some rough gems, like manual Maximas, the B15 Sentra SE-R Spec V and 350Z. OG Frontier and Xterra, too.

Even then, the dealers were abysmal.

I worked at a Nissan store for a hot second, back when IT tanked after the dotcom implosion. Sad to hear they never changed. Basically a half-step removed from a “buy-here-pay-here” lot on the highway by an airport.

I am incredibly glad, and probably fortunate, that I picked up my weirdo manual E90 335i xDrive prior to this shit show. As well as our manual Rennie, and both motorcycles, because holy. fucking. boop.

I have to say, if fate smiles upon me, I wanna redo a bendy-bus as a landship.

This car actually has that up-level quality that those Regals pretended to have, and with very few notable exceptions, no one ever bought a Buick for thrust. This car and a Regal LS drop similar 0-60's and 1/4 mile times. Parts availability might be a thing if they break, but this was leftover from Mazda’s aborted…

Not even gonna front. By rotating the “wood” panels vertically, that actually looks far nicer than the stock setup.

Seriously. And we just shrug and excuse it with a resigned sigh and a “Nintendo gonna Nintendo.”

A good example of this is the Animal Crossing ‘one-Switch, one island” horse-shit. My wife and I share a Switch;  do I really want to play a game where I’m permanently locked into being a second-class citizen?

That position might’ve been understandable, and even defensible, in the mid-aughts. That said, I’ve got a bus stop on my corner and these elementary school kids all have cellphones and live on social media. (When they’re not rampaging all over my lawn and beating the street post with a bamboo shaft from the property up…

It’s fascinating that roughly a decade and a half after the 360's iteration of XBox Live kinda set the standard for how to do online, Nintendo has willingly refused to get to even that level of service.

IIRC, it’s also in the Bibble. I’d like to think the Almighty had better things to do than clarify that the sheeps ain’t for fuckin’, but here we are. Or, there we were, I guess.

This almost literally is the W-Body Buick Regal for the driver who is afraid to buy American. Nice Price.

I think it’s a metaphor for the G/O sites, in general.

They were pretty charming at first;  just a shame that Chrysler never did anything other than churn them out ad nauseam for a decade.

I’ll start the madness. Turbo and a manual, looks fairly well kept.  I can see 3500 in this market, especially for something with a dollop of interesting.

Heh. So am I, or it’s perhaps better stated that I am pro-access. When I say liberals are “pro-life,” or more accurately truly pro-life, it’s because that “life” part also includes those of us out here, doing people things. Things like universal healthcare, education, living wages, equality, etc. are inherently…
