The F31 generation Infiniti M30 was essentially a Nissan Leopard re-badged and upgraded for the US luxury grand touring market. This meant that you got a rear-drive sports car sold as a competitor to the Toyota Supra and Mitsubishi Starion, instead of the typical front-drive junk you would expect from a re-badged Nissan. Today’s example […]
I see a fair number of cars where the seller makes some crazy claims about his car being rare, and most of the time it ends with a yawn and some boredom, but here today we’ve got a car that has Racoon badging on the side. Actual, real OEM Racoon badging that goes with the […]
This next car comes as a seller submission from Josh who writes: It’s a clean and unmolested 2004 Infiniti M45. I know you know the basics, this body style was only available in the US in 2003 and 2004, it’s based on the Japanese Nissan Gloria, and has the VK45DE V8 from the Q45 shoehorned […]
The W210 chassis was marketed by Mercedes-Benz with the as the E-class from 1995-2002. It offered an expensive and elite ride for the wealthy and well-to-do. Mercedes offered some versions with 6-cylinder engines where the E stands for executive, but in 1998 they turned the E up to 11 in something called the E55 AMG. […]
This next car comes from instagram, which is a strange place to find a car for sale, but our friend Randy from Carchaeology put this car up for sale in an instagram and I figured…why not?! You can probably fix anything that goes wrong with a wrench and a hammer, just don’t get upset when […]
The Type 181 Volkswagen Thing is not a pretty car…but it is pretty useful. The thing started life in the 1960s as an off-road capable light vehicle designed for West German military use, but VW built a civilian version a few years later. Today we’ve got an example that looks like it’s ready for the […]
The E90 generation BMW 3-series was built from 2005 through 2011 in a variety of body styles. Today’s example is a E90 sedan, but there is also the E91 touring wagon, E92 coupe, and E93 convertible. Powering today’s sedan is an N53B25 straight-6 that uses a magnesium alloy block and dual-overhead cams to push 228 […]
At first glance this next car looks like some kind of hacksaw custom, which isn’t a problem, but the seller says it was originally a “flower car.” If you aren’t familiar with the cars of the funeral industry, this is a hearse with an open top, so that it can carry flowers or a casket […]
My own personal taste in automobiles can be peculiar at times and I don’t often find cars that are unversally admired by the random people that come and go in my life. However, the W124 chassis Mercedes-Benz might just jump the gap between eclectic tastes of my friends and family…in particular the wagon version is […]
Did you ever look at a photo and SMELL the object in the photo. No, not like sniffing a mimeograph or a fresh Polaroid, but I’m talking about seeing an odor in a photo. I can look at the inside of this 80s RV conversion and smell the RV odor. You know the smell. It’s […]
