I honestly can't tell a difference between Phoenix Yellow and Austin Yellow (though Toyota beige is the correct answer).

Pretty sure they are the same. BMW usually calls M exclusive colors after famous tracks (usually F1?)

For the record I would buy a Phoenix yellow E46/Austin yellow F80 without hesitation. I was in it for the points.

I would buy one if it was sufficiently discounted. It looks like newborn poop. This is probably one of the few things I can say with certainty from that timeframe.

I've heard of Michelin star's for restaurants but never thought it was actually something lead by the tire company, thought it was just some coincidence of names. Looked it up and no way...

How did a tire company end up becoming such an icon in the restaurant industry?
:psyduck:

Because that tire company wanted people to drive places back when 'motor touring' was a high-class pastime, so they created destinations.

Edit: Hah, wolfed on that last one because I went for the gm version of the Toyota color.

I'm probably the only person on the forums that has actually owned a Biturbo. And it had problems. And upon disassembly, the factory double gasketed SOME of the exhaust manifold joints on some of the cylinders... but that 3 valve monstrosity is NOTHING compared to the badness of a Pontiac Turbo Trans Am with the 301. It makes no power and is unreliable. At least the Maser made power for a little bit.

Well if I may break my neutrality as adjudicator of this fine game...yes it is.

The 6.ohno was a bad engine from the factory, yes, but with some relatively straightforward fixes it can be made into a reasonably competent engine. The Biturbo V6 was a bad engine from the factory, and will remain as such no matter how much money or time or effort you throw at it.

Honestly that's my view on the 6.0 as well. Biturbo might objectively be more bad, but the Ford has done far more harm just due to numbers.

My older brother had a 1980 Turbo Trans Am. What a hunk of poo poo. The novelty was fun. That’s where it ended. Factory LSD, carbed and could never get it to run right. He rebuilt the carb and as I recall he averaged 8 mpg.
