YO! The contact page has a 949 number... that means one of these things might be chilling down in Newport right now. We need to GET ON THIS ASAP. Read more

@sedan_zine is just above your 9,999 limit but it’s well worth a look. It’s all film, which makes even mundane sedans look beautiful. Read more

Finnegan’s Garage reviewed it today....

NorCal - maybe different policy after Covid? I know they used to be cash/check only. I definitely lack a hookup in AAA. Read more

As a previous 2g, 3g Owner I can’t fight this. I still get lots Of comments on this wing.

Partially. But I also think a lot of the perception there is a phenomenon of changing times. A bright yellow Integra with that little wing was pretty in-your-face in the ’90s. Read more

This is one of the most common CTR complaints and I have to disagree. The current Civic’s not an elegant car, it needs some flavor to stand out. Read more

More info! Porsche’s people told me there’s an air deflector you can activate manually to solve the wind noise problem, which I wasn’t aware of while driving the car, but could resolve my beefs with noise. (Regardless, I stand by my recommendation re: Do a thorough test drive if you want to buy one.)

Ah man - I never get tired of seeing photos like this. The juxtaposition of a 60, 70, 80 thousand dollar car, with fine wood interior panels, spotless leather seats, cutting edge electronics, and gleaming paint jobs, out there living the dirtbag lifestyle with tents and bikes and (occasionally) kayaks or surfboards.

Until I finally fully jumped the FB ship, the only thing keeping me there was the SoCal Montero group.  Read more

Way to get some good Z time in. Old cars love it when you spend time working, cleaning or driving them.  Read more

Oh man, can I relate to this! When I had my 87 300ZX, I was blessed to make some Z31 friends here in the Bay Area who were willing to come help with projects when I was really stuck. Ultimately, I felt more discouraged by the car than empowered that I was learning new things. So I old it and got back to old VWs (and,… Read more

well I guarantee even if nobody reads your stuff, this story will be repeated by you and you will start to accumulate tricks of your own, but will never start valve cover gaskets again without TDC. Don’t get discouraged. Your scout will definitely require you to wrench on it at some point and you will definitely cuss… Read more

Oof, this hit me right in the heart, I just sold my Z31 on Tuesday after having it for 7-8 years. Did a whole bunch of little stuff like that, plus coilovers. But it had been sitting outside for the last few years and not getting driven, so I sold it on to a young kid who’s excited to have a project car. Bittersweet,… Read more

I think this group may be right up your alley. The people are definitely diverse and LGBTQ supportive and hopefully you enjoy the era of cars too.

This is a good article with some great wisdom buried in it. If someone is having trouble fixing their car, an online group is a fantastic option. Im a member of the Aurora Club North America, the Eagles Nest, the Panther forums and the Vintage Ford forums. And every single group has provided me with nothing but help… Read more

You sound competent.

Actually, I love working on cars by myself. It’s almost like meditation for me. Just me, tools, and the machine. I just work better that way. When I absolutely need to enlist someone’s help (for large/heavy things), I almost resent it, because it feels like an intrusion. Read more

I hear about all the things happening in car groups on Facebook and people getting great deals on parts, but because Facebook accounts are tied to a name (and a face, if you have a photo) I’m just not comfortable joining groups as someone in the LGBT* demographic with a distinctive non-English name.
