watch the drive video. Toward the end, they talk about the uphill potential of these cars. Spoiler alert: it's nonexistent. They say on level ground and downhill it runs midpack against modern 4WD rally cars, but uphill with a 750cc engine, it's done.

Agreed. I haven't seen that episode of Drive, but this was a close one, and the note that it's been for sale for months tipped it to CP for me.

seems legit enough for me. I wish it was in the 2400ish range, but I'd take a shot on it at 2700.

yes! regenerative braking AND pedaling.

pushing 30yr old BMW with NOS? Internals probably beat to within an inch of their life. 5k asking made me think for a second, but even assuming seller will drop to 4200-4500 still too much risk for me. No NOS at this price? that probably ekes a NP from me.

the volvo is still rockin' its timeless good looks. The VW not so much. Yeah it looks interesting. Yeah it's rare. It just lacks the panache of the volvo.

ride a bike...as in bicycle. No plates required for those...yet.

exactly, much like the M3 shooting brake, this car shouldn't be, but it does, and love it. Can't afford it, but I love it.

Easy...1984 corvette. Sure it was a Delco-Bose collaboration, and positively sucks in comparison to what comes in basic cars today. However wasn't this the first time a major manufacturer tried to put something good into their car standard? I'd argue if Chevy hadn't done that 30 years ago, we could very well still be…

it's enforced here in new york too. grrrrrrrr. we had to drill the front bumper of my wife's Kia when we moved here because south carolina didn't require front tags.

I've been getting 5 dollar hot & readies since I first heard about them in 1994. At the time they were only available on Tuesday & Wednesday night, but those two nights I knew what was for dinner.

I hope you live in a state where they don't require front plates. I no longer do, and the front of my car looks like crap..and I drive a sienna. I shudder at the thought of defiling a good looking car.

So it wasn't just me...when I drove it from SC to NY I barely cracked 40mpg in the thing. Aside from the brief blast into the 80's (PA ain't nothing but road construction and I wanted to get by one more car before 20+ miles of single lane interstate) I kept my foot out of it.

the last speeding ticket I received was in a prius—81 in a 55. I had to drive one to realize that priuses suck.

this is great. My wife uses my account. Now I can add her and get those veggie cookbook out of my cart! She can clutter up her own cart (instead of using the wishlist function, like good people do).

too late, I went to craigslist, and you're right.

I haven't read the article yet aside from Vanagon & 20 large...instant crack pipe unless there's a hidden box full of Spanish doubloons under the driver's seat.

You can add content. I think that's the point is to have users add content.

I've driven 40 hours nonstop in a 2008 Chrysler Pacifica. I was in Walla Walla, WA thinking it was Tuesday. It was actually Wednesday and I had a job interview Friday morning in Toronto Canada. Drove straight through. Got to Toronto at 11:00PM Thursday night. Made the interview at 8:00AM Friday morning and got the…

windscreen looks a little odd, but overall I'd happily drive one.
