And this too...brain melting beauty. If you can't drive it at least you can wash it and love it.  Stupid GPS screen though. Good thing it has a manual trans. Trump card.


This is one of 10 2014 M Performance Editions that is RWD. At most 8 are manuals.

Note that the CLK was based on a C-class chassis.

"The CLK is a fairly compact car, based on a lengthened version of the same chassis used for the small Mercedes C-Class sedans. Yet the designers have successfully infused it with the presence and bearing of a much larger coupe like the big Mercedes CL."

Yes, but same engines and electronics as the E.

That Vauxhall guy doesn't even know how to spell his car's name  :-[

The S10 and Datsuns are often at cars shows.

The Buick lives one community over from us. I've seen it a couple times.

Something appealing about this Sunfire done up in a Mad Max style. If it were cheaper I'd rock it for the beater rally (on gravel this year too!)

guilty pleasure. One can dream. These are only going to get more and more expensive, quite the collectible.

http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Alfa+Romeo/Unspecified/Montr%C3%A9al/Quebec/5_30224325_CT2004414113131706/?showcpo=ShowCPO&orup=22_75_23




These are getting more expensive too, especially the manuals. Damn, was hoping for one as a winter beater.

http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Volvo/V70/MONTR%C3%89AL/Quebec/19_10072915_/?showcpo=ShowCPO&orup=2_75_2



Always wanted one of these too

And a birthday present for myself, this car is as old as I am. Such a sexy brute, you can see it as a villian car in like Condor Man [remember that Flatnose Porsche? So cool!]

If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

That Maserati is a giant POS.  Those cars are horrid.  Everyone that has/had one regrets it.

My neighbour's son just bought a very nice looking out of province Volvo V70R. After it failed the provincial inspection, he's about $3k into parts the last time I spoke with him.
