That looks like the one that Terry-Thomas and Milton Berle were driving in one of my all-time favorites movies: It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, World. Read more

I guess because I'm a geezer and was around for the first incarnation of this car, I'm pretty much over the new Challenger. It can't be worse than the 70 'Cuda that my buddy owned that used nearly as much oil as it did gas. Read more

From 1974 through 1983, I worked at a VW dealership both in sales and finance.In 1982, my then-wife was pregnant with out third kiddo and wanted a bigger car than the '80 Jetta. So I made a deal for a '82 VW Quantum wagon, red metallic with red leatherette( a very rare combination). It wasn't a bad car at all, except Read more

I've never been much of a BMW fan, but as rough as ALL 3 of those cars seem to be, it strikes how much better looking they are than most of the current offerings. Read more

I want the Studebaker if it comes with the bullet nose from a '50 Commander or Champion. Read more

I saw one if these at a 7-11 a couple of weeks ago, with some guy dressed all in black(natch!) pumping gas into it. All the side curtains were pulled down like someone famous was inside. Who knows, this being Las Vegas, maybe someone famous was there. I just thought it was funny seeing it parked at a 7-11. Read more

After my high school graduation(1967) my dad paid $175 for a 1957 Ford Hardtop sedan(did they have names?) with insurance money he got from someone hitting the back fender of his 1965 Olds Holiday 88.(the dent stayed there until the Olds was traded for a 1972 Ford Galaxie. I only drove the Ford for a few months and Read more

I was in the Pontiac dealership yesterday, having my '05 G6 serviced—actually just getting both of the keyless entry fobs(?) replaced under warranty. I wandered through the showroom and one of the salesmen seemed knowledgeable enough about the stuff they sell; I asked him about the G8 and he said they had heard very Read more

I just love the Ambien gold metallic color on this car. It looks like a Camrycord color. I want it in red. Read more

I have always loved looking at junkyards, so imagine my thrill when I found this link: Read more

Wow—thanks for all the info on the chicken tax. Just think how much easier life would have been with the internet in the 70's. I have only seen these a few times, but have always wondered what kind of front end crash protection your legs and ankles would make. Read more

@iantm: If Toyoter intros this car at SEMA, it will no doubt have 22inch dubs, a Lambo door kit, 5 15" monitors and a rap soundtrack blaring in the trunk. Read more

I wonder if when it's done, it will come up looking as bad as Burt does, with his vaguely Asian looking face. Will there be as much plastic in it as in there is in his face? Read more

Brings back memories of my first new car, a 1972 Nova, white with tan vinyl roof. It came with one of those sliding fabric sunroofs which was cool but rattled like crazy for the whole 5-6 years I owned it. Read more

I saw my first one here in Las Vegas and I like the looks of them. I think if I got hit by an Excursion in this OR in my Pontiac G6, I'd pretty much be toast in either one. Since I'm alone in my car 99.99% of the time, this might be an alternative for me next year. Read more

I've made SEVERAL really pithy and amusing comments in the last few days, all for naught, dammit. Hope things are back to normal soon! :) Read more

Since this car hasn't really been introduced, production wise, who is it that is driving them and wrecking/burning/destroying them? Are they Audi people? Or does the Russian Mafia really have that much pull? Read more

Will it come pre-rusted, like the '88 (89?) that my brother owned? Despite the rust and the slight underpowered-ness, it was a fun car to drive. Read more
