For those of us who are fans of classic cars, the Chevrolet Corvair needs no introduction. This quirky little sedan, produced from 1960 to 1969, was ahead of its time in many ways and continues to fascinate automotive enthusiasts to this day. One of the most notable things about the Corvair was its engine placement […]
This next car comes as a tip from Johnny Bouncewell who writes: Wanna spend the rest of your life looking for a tail light lens? Here you go. Ooof, that hurts. As someone who has owned cars with unobtanium parts (old Saabs, old Buicks, etc) I understand this problem. For every car like the ’57 […]
The third generation of Toyota’s Corolla was sold from 1974 through 1981 and is probably the vehicle you could credit with putting Toyota on the trajectory from a small Saab sized company in 1974 to the worlds biggest builder of horseless carriages in 2009. The Corolla Liftback wasn’t the fastest, sportiest, or most luxurious car […]
The Renault 5, aka “Le Car,” was a popular hatchback in Europe during the 1970s and 1980s. Because, you know, Europeans love nothing more than cramped spaces, awkward designs and walking to their destination. The 5 was known for its tendency to break down at the slightest hint of trouble, and its unique styling that […]
This next car is a smidge above the typical DT price point…but oh man it has depreciated a bunch and it looks amazing for being less than the average price of a new car in 2022 (which was $47,077…uggg). But this thing had a base price of $126,400 in 2008 and now it is offered […]
The Daihatsu HiJet is Japanese built micro truck (and van) that has been a solid entry to the Kei-truck scene since its introduction in 1960. Daihatsu was on their 7th generation of the little 3-cylinder powered city-Truck by the time today’s example was released into the wild, but they were still designed with city transportation […]
The baby blue Volvo we posed earlier today was a bit of a wreck, so I think we need to redeem robin’s egg blue cars with something equally vintage, but in nicer shape. The Ford Courier was a compact pickup truck that was produced from 1952 to 1982, and this 1980 model is a prime […]
I love a rusty ond pile of junk wagon as much as a next guy (trust me…) but woof, this Amazon wagon looks like a piece of chalk that’s been left out in the rain. It might be melting. On the plus side it has a B18 inline-4 and a 4-speed manual gearbox, so the […]
Daily Turismo is always on the hunt for the weirdest, most obscure cars and this next kammback designed beauty is definitely one for the books. This French freak is a perfect example of why you shouldn’t trust anything made by the French (except for wine, of course…and cheese…and baguettes but that’s it). The Citroen CX […]
This next car comes as a tip from John W who writes: Here is a chance to drive a piece of history for not big bags of money. This is a first generation U.S. Camry (‘83 to ‘86). Toyota says that there are only 772 first generation Camrys on the road, according to KBB.com. And […]
