The problem is, they made lots of these Eldo convertibles and they were reliable and wore well. Parts are easy to find, and don’t cost much compared to most cars of that era. They’re not exactly practical, and drink gas like it’s going out of style, so they see little mileage and are easy to keep well preserved.

I see your point, and it’s well taken. But it’s still a truck. And circling back to one of my original points, it’s a badge-engineered Tahoe in a nice suit with, like, some extra muscles. That’s a bastardized Cadillac in my eyes.  Read more

I don’t have high hopes for this. I’ve been extremely pessimistic about VW in the US and even more recently, VW globally. They ruined the interior of their only class leading car here in the US (Golf R & GTI), their EVs are pretty uninspiring and outclassed by Ford/Kia/Hyundai/Tesla, the ID Buzz seems to lack van Read more

A modern LS would probably eat that transfer case.

986 still can be found at decent prices. Might have to travel to get one, like I did last week. $9k for high mile 2000 base with lot of options. Wanted a well maintained runner than a garage queen that’s been sitting for a long time. Needs about $1k or more work, mostly cosmetic, radio swap ect, NV car, zero rust and Read more

The answer used to be a 986 Boxster S (2000-2004).

Absolutely a Fiat 500 Abarth. I bought one just over a year ago for $7600 before prices jumped, they’re probably more like $13k now. Currently turning it into a rally car.

You can put together a pretty great 3 bike garage for $15k. Or $10k. Or even $5k. Truly the most bang for your buck. Read more

The most fun car under $15k is a motorcycle. Maybe 3 or 4 motorcycles even, so you can follow multiple whims. I will take no further questions on this. Read more

Ignoring the car part of the rule, one of these:

Whatever you have. It isn’t what you drive, it is what you do with it that makes it fun. Go drive like you are having fun and you will.

I came across this classic photo this morning and look what the QOTD is!

I think the 911 is a pretty fair deal as well. That’s got to be a replacement top bc the fit is atrocious, but it could be refitted or replaced again. The Porsche Classic Communication Management system with XM is pretty sweet, though awfully pricey,  and almost makes me want to take the plunge for my own car. Read more

Ford is so embarrassed at the backlash at this point that if you go on their website they try and hide the “Mustang” name and often just call it the Mach-E.

And so did Mitsubishi, I think the Eclipse cross should have just been the Outlander sport, and Ford Mach-E...Granted its a good looking crossover but man don’t neuter an icon like that.  Read more

or will the all-electric Vette be something else entirely?”

Solution - a new tax on everyone to pay for the deadbeats! Then that .02% sales tax increase (it’s for the children!) goes into the state general fund where it can be spent on anything like private jets for Senators to get to the yearly meetings in Vail! It’s a win-win. Read more
