A reminder that 15 years ago, Toyota was using one of their lowest priced vehicles to promote their performance parts. The world needs more low cost race cars. I would love to daily this sucker.

Cleaning out some old files. I remember being at the PRI conference when the new B-Spec showroom stock series was announced w manufacturer involvement. Fairly low cost and the cars were cool. A couple of years later I was able to track one of the Mazdas at MMC. Seriously fun. I still want one!

Since Saab is in the news, it reminded me of this.
Back in 2010, when Saab showed off the new 2nd gen 9-5 sedan at Monticello Motor Club, the classic Sonetts (II and III) parked out front were far more interesting. At least to me.

Love the Stratos! I included one in an animation I created a number of years ago for Larry Kosilla for a video he made on the difference between radar and laser speed enforcement.

Met this dude today. A 4-horn sheep is like a 6-wheel G-Wagen. Both bizarre and cool at the same time.

As the weather begins to cool, and thoughts turn to...driveway plowing, who wouldn't love a Smart with a plow? Just needs some proper wheels and winter tires.
