If I take the back road to work after going to get coffee, I drive right past what I am almost certain is an old Audi Quattro. It's sitting in the parking lot of I think a pipe making company. It's been in the same place every time, and I doubt it's moved, since it's covered with snow. So tempted to stop and see if it's for sale and how much the owner wants for it. If the owner has any inkling of what it is, I'd never be able to afford it, and finding any parts would be laughably difficult, not to mention exorbitantly expensive, but I still really really want that car. It wouldn't be that hard to put in modern components right? Right?

Hard to tell much of anything from what's there but I don't know much about the market for them. I'm concerned about the "Rebuilt V8 (260)", since the original engine, if a V8, should be a 330. The 260s were a cut-down version of the Olds V8 from the '80s. Guy could just be mistaken. Other than that, cool old Olds.

This...actually looks really well done. Of course, looks can be deceiving but (questionable interior design aside) it presents well at least. Only 25 - 30 mpg though, don't these normally get 40+? Whoever gets it should add some big rig style aero up top

Kenshin posted:You didn't see that it was turned into a mini-box truck, then: Oh no, I did, it just seems like the added box by itself shouldn't cause a ~15 mpg hit (although I guess it might, I'm no expert). Which is why I think the new owner should put an airfoil on top of the roof curving up to the box to improve it. Hell, he should do it anyway.

Fo3 posted:The Holden Camira was Wheels magazine's "car of the year" in 1982, and the Opel Ascona came second place in the "European car of the year" in 1982. To be fair Wheels did eventually acknowledge that was a terrible mistake. My father worked for Holden New Zealand through the 80s so the family had the misfortune of having company Camiras for that time - the only one that was actually ever any good as the Japanese assembled JJ model we had 85-87 (and that still wasn't as good as an Accord or Bluebird or similar)

Kenshin posted:It's the added weight. The Metro got great gas mileage because it hardly weighed anything and had a tiny little engine. Even an especially fat person would cause a hit to the gas mileage. Between the weight and added drag that's easily believable. I used to drive one of these which is essentially the same idea but came like that from the factory and has some degree of attention paid to aerodynamics and it was still pretty awful on fuel at higher speeds (not to mention as scary as hell)

That's a lot of work to go to and still be unable to comprehend pushing a pedal with your left foot and moving a stick with your right hand. Kind of surprised Veilside didn't do more in the back. That's always been my least favorite part of the 350Z.

If it makes it over Dumbarton without catching fire, it's a steal. v- I figured that it was just blocked by the window.

Every angle of that car looks cool even if the back end seems to just disappear without any interesting ideas coming out of the Franco-Nissan design playdoh machine. The brakelights save it, as does the Nismo rear diffuser. Seat Safety Switch fucked around with this message at 00:22 on Jan 4, 2013 |
