Step one start with the best looking slow car on the road, a first generation VW Karman Ghia. Step two place it on the frame of a WRX complete with all wheel drive. Step three place the power plant from the RX-7 super car 3 rotors of smooth power.
It will be the quirkiest thing on four wheels.
Although lately I have…

This is my early retirement plan, but with the concept of travel thrown in.
Road trips, and car flips can be a great way to see a lot of this continent and drive some interesting cars.

Will it Uber?

I went with CP, if I were to shop for a Mach 1 I would for this unmolested Topless Canadian for nearly half the price.

He did say Maxi-Scooter by there very design they will keep with anything on the road, except for the most extreme sport bike.
I would love to see the Honda X-ADV here in Canada.

or barring that find a BMW Gt scooter for under $5K

As a scooter rider I voted NP, I loved the style of these when they first came out, and have wanted one.
It was a hard decision which way to go, as it is only a 250, and I find my 500 lacking sometimes. That and the fact that I paid that much CND for my 500 a few years ago.
But in the end it is a good bike with style,…

I would not rent out my scooter, every time it gets dropped it cost $300, and the mirrors are getting harder to find. So if I were to rent it out I could be without it for 4 weeks waiting for parts, when the riding season up here is as short as it is there is no way I would chance loosing peak riding time, even if…

Will it Uber? If so I would look at getting this for my dad, and have him stop renting a taxi to drive in Orlando. Teaching him how to use a smart phone would be the worse part of that plan. 

I went with a CP, because I’m Canadian and can get a newer one imported for less if I looked.

why were they applied to a mild-mannered FWD car and not to a more rally-appropriate turbocharged and AWD edition?

I had a FWD Legacy, and a friend who rallied and RX-7, so I knew of a program that Subaru had when they were trying to make it into the world of Rally.

If your Subaru came in first in it’s division Subaru…

I was thinking that perhaps it might have come out of the same design house or something along those lines. But then again if you look at the B10, Mazda 616, Comet, Meteor, Monza, and Vega they all have similar lines, so it is likely that it was just the auto look of the era.

But the Capri does look more like the…

Upon first glance, and before my morning caffeine, I thought that that was a Mercury Capri of the era. Like this one:

I have been looking at this one in my local market for a few weeks now.
I have the money just not the space. If I lived on an acreage I would save all the cars. Oh and this is in Canadian Loonies so cheap for you south of the 49th.

Most of them take the C-train to one of the conveniently located bottle depots near the stations.

But times are tough here in Calgary, ex-oil executives need to cash in their bottles to pay taxes on their McMansions.

Sorry had to be one of the few CP voters.
Every single Protege of this error suffers from severe rust on the rear wheel wells. Every single one, without exception. Well at least up here in Canada.

Two comments:

For this coin I want a nice Cabbie just like the two I have owned. I like the Mk1s, just not the Jettas. A great number of the Cabbies came with the 16V engine that was in the GLi and GTi as well. It needed them as it was a few pounds heavier.

My number 1 pet peeve about cars on screen is when cars that I know have air bags get into a serious crash, yet the air bags don’t deploy.
My daughters air bags went off in her Jetta when she his a manhole cover, yet on screen people hit buildings in their cars and no air bags.

And after the car is started the steering wheel lock is mysteriously not locked anymore.

This was the moment of disbelief for me in the first Transformers Movie when Megan Fox hot wired the tow truck.

At a local dealer, more kilometres, but smaller Canadian dollars.

Nope, not happening, I have owned a V6 4Motion version of this car, and to this day I loved the way the wagon opened up and accepted everything I wanted to carry inside it. She was great touring through the mountains, and was good to sleep in the back of when I showed up to the camping site late Friday night.

But with…
