Had an '82 for a couple years when I was in college. Super fun car for sure, even at almost legal speed.this is my old next door neighbor's car. I've worked on this thing with him over the years. It's a BLAST to drive, and a really nicely done resto.

nice, but that doesn't strike me as a JBP kind of car. Are you shopping for an e-car?
Been thinking about an electric car to replace CR-V, just tripped across a review on Ars Technica, just a fantasy at this point. Don't need the Mercedes HP or bling...
Just get a Kia/Hyundai
Easier to signal virtue in one of those.
That would make sense. I'm not versed in all things Porsche.
Before we got the wife's new whip we were talking about an EV. The next one will likely be EV, might even be my e-moto to start.
John, I'd suggest looking into the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6. Both have hitch options iirc and are practical 2 row hatchbacks. Fast quick charging for road trips if that's relevant to you.
what is that?
Buy a raptor.
I had a couple falcon rancheros that I couldn’t give away. Granted both were t-boned. But the things just arnt worth much running so I can’t see putting that much effort and it being more fun than the stock setup. Let me know if you need parts.
I can't watch ioniq 5 videos because it makes me angry that I'd have to pay $60k for a $40k car. They are beautiful, practical, and clearly the path forward for EVs (in terms of normal people in normal cars)....but I have not enjoyed any of my very limited hyundai dealership experiences and I can only imagine dealer markup right now. So, I don't want to see how nice they are.
As much as I hate "LIFT IT AND CLAD IT" as the next guy, the V90 xc was even better looking with color matched fender flares:

We love sleek, upscale wagons such as the V90. It's a shame Volvo has decided to kill it.www.caranddriver.com
V90's...non cross country....special order....only 153 sold through the first half of 2021....

Isn't tesla notorious for playing dumb games with their sales figures? Like they will artificially deflate sales numbers one quarter so the next one they can sElL MoRE CArS ThAn ANyOnE ElSE!?!?!?! the next? Look at the chart and how their sales have dropped the same time every year, year on year. Next month we'll see an article about how tesla is blowing everybody else out of the water, when in reality they just held their cars back a month so they could deliver more than Kia this month.
I can't believe dealers are marking these things up for customers that live in their market, poor business practice IMO. You know the Ioniq 5 comes with 2 years complimentary 30 minute fast charging sessions fo free
Same over here. Ram trucks a-plenty, low stock of everything else new.
MSRP is 52k on this ioniq 5. Currently on sale for 57k. Used, by the way.I can't believe dealers are marking these things up for customers that live in their market, poor business practice IMO. You know the Ioniq 5 comes with 2 years complimentary 30 minute fast charging sessions fo free

Cool, I'll grant you, but beautiful? In the eye of the beholder I guess
My neighborhood is absolutely lousy with these things, I think there's 8 just in my little area, plus maybe a dozen more in the surrounding neighborhoods.
Some are shaped like shit.
A blob-car WITH LINES
That’s dope.
Some shits are car shaped
Oh man, It hurts to see these cubes.. LOL
