Agreed on that last part.

Also the entire "GEO" line from GM back in the 90's.

I kinda want to see what the '86 would look like with pop-up lights, like the old '86

Corolla.

Learn your boring econoboxes, noob!


Heh...


(I used think the Geo Storm looked awesome, and wished it had the turbo 1.6 and AWD option of its Isuzu Impulse twin. But don't tell anyone...)

This looks like it might suck. Last time I was looking at wheels the ones I liked came in the perfect size, 17x8, since I wanted to keep stock size, but go wider if possible. But I checked the other day and could only find them in 18x8 on the same site.

Maybe more like an e-brake handle, just like the ones in Rally cars. That would be cool..

BTW, who would put this handle bar in the inventory? Some drunken OL?

Econoboxes (un)fortunately are not a domain I truly understand or want to know about.

Found it in the mail room. Back then, we used to have drunk staff who used to work in the mail room.

I know, heh...

On a related note, I'm concerned over my attraction to the new Fusion and Focus.

Is it:

A) Because the Ford designers don't suck anymore.

Or B) Because I've aged to the point that I'm in the demographic where people find dull cars 'nifty'. (Shudder...)

?

The answer is B, gramps.

I'm slight biased to Ford cause I want them succeed. All the work and designs they put into their lineup of cars has also captured my fellow family members attentions and I have no problem with them choosing them over Dodge or Chevy.
