A BaT listing costs $99 and 5% of the selling price, up to $5K.

Well, to be fair a single digit mileage E30 M3 is going to command six figures, easy.

I prefer the six over the eight, but I do like the way you think.

I find it laudable that most of us, even as car enthusiasts, take the safety of our cars and trucks as an important factor. I’m thinking of doing a quick history of major U.S. auto safety regulations with eras denoted by the impact those regulations had.

I’m betting that they couldn’t find a windshield locally and didn’t want to incur the cost of having once sourced and shipped.

The starter clutch is a known wear issue on these bikes. The starter itself? Not so much. If it is just the starter then that’s an easy $50 fix. I’m betting if it were that easy it would have been fixed by now. Read more

It’s a monumental job—like literally requiring taking the transmission mid-shaft out. It may have been too daunting and/0r too expensive for a bike he wanted to unload. Read more

Hey, just wait until you hear what people say when I start doing airplanes and canoes. Read more

Whenever I see a car for sale that’s not presented in its best light I’m always taken back to the scene in Planes, Trains & Automobiles where John Candy’s character—Del Griffith—is attempting to get a motel room with some loose change and his watch... a Casio. He drapes the dime-store watch across his wrist… Read more

I’d G-class over Land Rover any day. These are just as capable and are just funkier enough to tickle my fancy. I am a bit offended by what Mercedes has done to the model since they started officially importing them, but this older model checks all the right boxes for me.

The thing is ALL MX-5 models will eventually reach a point where they are increasing in value. Excellent examples like this one should be snapped up in preparation for that. Read more

I think it seems more irrational when you take it by its Canadian metrics - fifteen grand, 255,000 K etc.. By U.S. dollars and miles and rarity, it feels less of a hit. Read more

I’ve driven a number of RHD drive cars with manual transmissions over the years. The most hilarious result of this was the time I was in a Morgan Plus 4 and kept sticking my right arm out into traffic in an attempt to reach the nonexistent shift lever that my muscle memory thought should be there.

Pfft, he wishes that were plywood. That’s OSB. Read more

My own driveway indicates that I should not clutter-shame any other. Read more

Nope, I’m afraid once it’s in Kinja for more than 15 minutes it’s written in stone.

Ah yes, I’ve seen that b-pillar wear on a number of these. I’m shocked that Elon Musk hasn’t announced some sort of new atomic element that Tesla has developed and will be retrofitted to ensure that part never wears again. Read more

The thing is, the ad doesn’t specifically say that the car runs. It could have been dressed up for the prom but sports a snapped cam drive belt and heads full of expensive bent valves. That would be thousands more to get a running car. Read more

When I got this ad I thought that it was a total scam. Hell, I’m still not 100% convinced it isn’t. The dealer has just enough sketchiness in the ad—the crazy trucks mentioned, the weird ‘we don’t know where the car is!’ warning—to cool my jets about what’s obviously a relatively cheap initial price on a wildly… Read more

This is why you should always carry a blacklight to any car purchase review. And bleach. Lots of bleach.
