For those that work in insurance...Sorry.

My insurance messed up something, which in turn my dad just cussed some random stranger out who had nothing to do with it. Which included "I know you probably didn't graduate college.." and "Did you fall asleep or something!?"

Many facedesks were had.

I think Triumph GT6's are awesome.

To look at. And the idea of a straight 6, long front opening hood, fastback with independent rear suspension sounds so awesome.

On paper.

But do you have the time and money to hunt down and repair obscure parts? And cat-like reflexes to catch the terrifying spontaneous oversteer/spins when the swing axles go from lots of grip to jacking effects and no grip, with next to no warning?

I used to want one badly (L6-powered Spitfire with a fastback? Yes please!), but did enough research to say I will probably never get one.

Yeah, and they seemed to be pretty rare. I didn't find many when I looked around for them.

Plus, I know I'm going to catch a lot of crap for it, but I want to put an automatic in whichever one I end up with, and the GT6 doesn't come with an automatic unless you retrofit one into it somehow.

So many stupid threads appearing lately. I'm surprised I haven't come across

"POLL" do you open your car door with your left hand or right?
