  1. Driving home this afternoon I was passed by a goregous '50s Mercedes 300SL Gullwing coupe..
  2. Profit grab. $4500 for the engine option seems excessive.
  3. Yeah, probably a decal or tampo printed.
  4. Happy Belated Birthday..missed it yesterday..
  5. Must be a Chevy Lumina SSV ute.
  6. This from a guy who's manliness is so fragile, it can be shattered by a tiny Eco badge on the trunk of a Cruze. LoL...but the same guy gets a boner from a Tdi badge.. What do I get for AWD????? Depends if it's RWD or FWD based, I guess...
  7. H'mmmmm I was totally stumped by the Twink comment and had to bing it. You really think the jelly bean style of code 130RS is more a man car compared to the sharper edge Tru? Remember the basic law of the automotive world, FWD=weak, RWD=manly.
  8. Yep, my Mom's '77 Thunderbird looked like that...green inside.
  9. I would think those in the Rust Belt would mostly be rusted out....as far as stepsides, I see a few out here, mostly '70s though, more than '80s...of the '80s I tend to see shortbed fleetsides..
  10. You can see the dash through the rear window in one photo, so it's definitely a pre-MCE model.
  11. They can't even the get the year right or spell the car name...sad.
  12. More electrical maladies...had a hard time starting this week (battery is only 2 months old), took it in yesterday...battery terminals/cable was leaking, replaced it, starts fine now. Also the A/C mysteriously starting blowing only out of the defroster vents, some tube was melted...now works fine.
  13. Happy Birthday!
  14. Not sure why this is news, didn't they already roll out a diesel 3-series in the US w/ the last generation model?
  15. The Equus targets the S. Korean market primarily, I can't see it making much impact in NA. The Hyundai brand which is known in NA for cheap, disposable generics doesn't help.
  16. I remember as a kid in Ohio in the '70s-80s my folks and my brother had many cars without air, I remember riding around on vinyl seats w/ the window down (270 or 470 air, I heard it referred to as). People put up with a lot more hardships in the olden days, I guess...I couldn't imagine not having A/C today. I'd love to see a modern IROC series...
  17. I wonder how the ZL-1 will look...or the base model. So this is using the Z06 engine or a variant there of, whilst the ZL-1 uses the ZR-1 engine...nice.
  18. I just saw a rear-end pic, looks good from behind...a bit of a '69 styling cue in the 3 element taillights w/ a twist...
  19. Neat to see the Z/28 name come back. Couldn't imagine not ordering A/C unless I was living in the Arctic Circle (or buying to use as a race car).
  20. Saw one a few min ago in the evening commute that I haven't seen in ages-mid '90s Mazda MX-6 coupe...was on a shared platform w/ the 2nd gen Probe...was a good looking car back in the day, IMO..had a buddy in grad school that had one. The one I saw today was gold and in good shape.
  21. Saw a white and gray Local Motors Rally Fighter in traffic today, pretty cool.... I'd seen them in articles online and at a car show, but never in traffic...it's a wild-looking 4x4 coupe built here in AZ, I used to drive by their factory out in the Chand when I worked out there..
  22. Interesting..repaints of last years concepts..and they renamed the Code140 to TRU140? Maybe that show had a lot of fans of the last gen Eclipse, hence the popularity of the TRU..
  23. As far as the hood goes, it would have been more interesting if they had done a retro modern spin on past Camaro SS hoods, like the '67-69 or '80s Z-28 hood. The front looks goofy and angry.
  24. I wonder if it is a reskinned Golf or Jetta...past A3s shared a lot w/ the Golf, IIRC.
