Oddly Not Half Bad: 1988 Buick Regal Gran Sport
The Cambridge dictionary defines the word sport (noun /spɔrt, spoʊrt/) as a game, competition, or similar activity, done for enjoyment or as a job, that takes physical effort and skill and is played or done by following particular rules. I’m not sure if the product planners at Buick in 1988 understood the word when they released the “Gran Sport” edition of the Regal on GM’s front-drive W-body platform shared with the Lumina, Cutlass Supreme, and Grand Prix. However, today’s Regal Gran Sport is about the nicest one I’ve seen since about Feb of 1988 and is offered for a simple price. Find this 1988 Buick Regal Gran Sport offered for $7,200 in Ray, MI via faceregal gransportplace. Tip from Cory.

Is this still available?
Maybe the seller won’t respond to the question of “Is this still available” because there wasn’t proper punctuation and therefore it wasn’t an actual question. The seller could be a prior Jeopardy champion who knows that if it’s not in the form of a question, it doesn’t count.
“Is this still available” = “I will NOT respond.”
“Is this still available?” = “Yes, it is, thanks for asking.”

Did an AI show up in the comments trying to explain Daily Tourismo?
Not sure why ‘Tourismo’ came out that way.
And also just, you know, because:
“Daily Turismo is a website focused on featuring interesting, unusual, and affordable vintage and classic cars available for sale, primarily in the United States. The site often highlights cars deemed to offer good value for the money, unique finds, or vehicles that are quirky and outside the mainstream. The write-ups typically include humor and insight, and the community is known for its knowledgeable and passionate readers who frequently contribute their own experiences and opinions in the comments section. The main idea behind Daily Turismo is to help enthusiasts find hidden gems in the vast online car marketplace, particularly those that might be overlooked on bigger platforms or by casual browsers.”
I’m not an AI, just Autistic. 😅
This nearly unseats the Reatta from the top of my list of cool Buicks and might be the only car I’ve ever wanted to buy mostly for its back seat.
There is also
“an individual exhibiting a sudden deviation from type beyond the normal limits of individual variation usually as a result of mutation especially of somatic tissue”
So maybe that’s what they mean?
I mean, look at that back seat.
Or
“ sexual play”
Nope, I mean look at that back seat.
