I NP’ed it, but everything you recounted would have been my reality so mental note ND based on your post

I have a special place in my memory for these. In college, I had more than a few classes with this very cute Mennonite girl. She was very sweet and very cute and quite. She always wore a handmade long dress and head net. One day I saw her driving off campus. She was blasting down the street driving a Thunderbird turbo…

True. This one is priced alright, however. If you go on Hemmings you’ll find people seem to think these cars are worth a fortune. They’re not.

I like Beemers (have both 2- and 4-wheeled versions) and we were recently considering a 330ix GT version, a hatchback version much like this except . . . 10X better looking.

Am I the only person who thinks 3rd prize sounds more appealing than 1st prize?

Supercross is happening in Indy tomorrow 

If it was a pre-’98 NG900, the clutch probably was fine - the cable-actuated clutches in the older of these suuucked, and the cable was probably way out of adjustment. I converted my ‘95 NG900SET to the later hydraulic setup as this car has, much, much better. My favorite Saab of the seven I had. A 3dr.

I wanted one of these, but a turbo, for my entire youth, I was so close to buying one when I was 23, but when I took it for a test drive the clutch was way out of whack, and the sales guy was telling me, the clutch was fine but I did not know how to drive a stick (I had a VW stick at the time)

Since right before the pandemic, I discovered microwaving diced potatoes 3-4 minutes before panfrying them in bacon fat. They are the reason for my weight gain. Nothing better than eggs, bacon or sausage, diced potatoes with scallions, green peppers, garlic and onion salt and an English muffin for a nice breakfast on…

Well, at least for one year they weren’t limited:

Oh, you know what’s good - one of those hashbrown patties as a vessel for mashed, citrusy avocado. 

I could see that being a fire hazard if you never clean your toaster, but I don’t want to imagine the amount of hash brown patties one would need to consume to get to that level of danger compared to anything else that goes in a toaster with the possibility of burning.

This is way too much work for the 30 seconds it takes to eat one.

1st gens are sweet! Probably the coolest looking of all the Celicas. I got a ride in one a couple of years ago that had been turned into a drift car and it was pretty awesome, but man. People were for SURE smaller back then!

Yes, then sell it to me.

An important question:

Should I import Project Krassler?:

Um, the rocker cover on the stand is black, the one in the van is white.

Possibly true! But you can see that while there’s a ton of unused space - man, I will not be hacking into that walnut veneer for the sake of a touchscreen.

I am surprised at all of the auto enthusiasts commenting here that have no idea who Rich is, (dude has nearly 1 million subs.) If you knew who he was, you’d get this a bit better. The dude has rebuilt more Teslas (and other EVs) that were totaled than probably anyone on the planet. Him rebuilding another Tesla back to…

My ‘08 Saab 9-3SC was on the lot for just shy of two - and I bought it right at the end of the ‘09 GM Saab fire sale when they sold Saab to the Danes.
