Whatever it is that makes me fanatical about cars also makes me completely immune to motorcycles, making it meh at any price, even free.

Like a new pope was just elected out of the trunk.

Performance.

Mount a GoPro and then take it through an automated carwash. Make that a waterproof GoPro.

This being a Road & Track feature, the Porsche will win on intangibles and the real story will be what comes in second through thirteenth.

He got taken down to...

If you can't get it to work you could probably make your two grand back by parting it out. Nice to see a seller who's not completely delusional.

For sure it's a dyno machine, created only to make numbers and sell parts.

MSRP: $54,000.

And what's the best way to hook up 1,000hp? I know, let's use what appears to be the stock-sized 245/40-19s!

Two separate observations, hence their separation with paragraphs. I wasn't saying that Wheeler Dealers = F&F.

Oh I love the show and never miss it. It just makes me cringe sometimes.

You seem to have missed a few episodes, like the "signiture" WRX or drift-car Skyline one. Even when they stay stock-ish they get cheap aftermarket stuff, do non-standard reupholstery, and mix pieces from model years to make older models look new.

This is what the end product of an NSX episode of Wheeler Dealers would be like. It's got a shitload of miles on it for an NSX, which makes me wonder what kind of used-up condition it was in before it was re-done.

Hot Wheels! How many of us of a certain age spent countless hours racing these on this iconic orange racetrack? It was as real as racing got for most kids of that age.

Why the epic music?

I'm picturing Clyde to be a short, fat guy with a Kenny Rogers beard, an ever-present roomy Hawaiian shirt, jorts, bifocal sunglasses, and a cheap cigar. He's easy to avoid at the classic car meets though, as his ever-present "haw-haw-haw" laughter at his own jokes serves as an audible warning to his proximity.

Having owned an Audi once, I have to echo the sentiment of other Audi-experienced posters and point out that their engineering excellence ends quite abruptly when it comes to designing a car that can be serviced without taking the whole goddamn thing apart.

Cute exterior, but for me not almost $10k worth of cute. But if you're going to do the whole rat-rod thing, do the interior right as well.

Decimal point issues strike again. A $200.00 car priced for $2,000.00 is still a $200 car.
