That or something similar came up in RTVAY and I'm disgusted with myself for going high with a 2 just to avoid an incident with a certain someone. A-B-S-O-L-U-T-E---G-A-R-B-A-G-E.
Yeah, I know, I'm the one that posted it. I was curious on how low someone would rate it. :lol:
Anyway, I'm guessing you drove one and it wasn't pleasant at all.
 
What's wrong with the Shadow?
Absolutely nothing. Funnily enough, my dad had a 1988 baby blue Dodge Shadow that he bought new. His lasted 3 or 4 years and he drove it into the ground. Ended up getting paid for scrap on that car.
 
Wife had one when we got married--it was 2 years old at the time--V6 (3AT as I recall) was peppy enough but the tranny wouldn't shift. I'd have rather driven my convertible Beetle in the rain with its leaky roof.
 
Are there any other American cars right now besides the Corvette in any class in Le Mans? I would love to see future entries into Prototype racing from an American brand.
 
Chrysler GS-1 Ghia, I like the design of the side, but the front end is bothering me.

If those headlights were higher, the design would be much better overall.
 
Recently heard a podcast interviewing Tommy Kendall, and learned about a '73 Oldsmobile 98 called El Gallo Grande:

Actually not an import.

:confused:

The implication being that someone would confuse it for an import because it's been modified in a way that has thus far been limited to primarily imports? While I think said modifications are ghastly, since I've never been fond of Mavericks, I'm glad to see it was chosen rather than a B210, RX-4 or Celica...or anything else (from another manufacturer) I'm leaving out with a similar profile.

Yeah, I thought it was an old European car when I first saw it, but after taking a closer look, I realized it was a Maverick.
