It’s hard to believe that its Friday again – someone must have pressed the fast forward button (as in Adam Sandler movie Click). Anyway, it is time to present our weekly feature on the ‘Commenter of the Week’ or as we like to call it: COW. This week’s COW came after we featured a mid […]
We love finding V8 swapped rides for the Daily Turismo because they usually can be purchased for less than the price of the swap components with the labor thrown in for free. This 1987 BMW E30 325 sedan is no exception, with a Ford V8 & T-5 manaul trans, and is for sale asking $5k […]
Based on the GM A-body, the first generation Olds F-85 Cutlass was a compact unibody sedan available as 2-door, 4-door and convertible. Starting in 1964 the Cutlass used a body-on-frame intermediate platform – but the earlier 1961-63 unibody cars were cooler and available with a turbocharged “Jetfire” V8. This 1963 Oldsmobile F-85 Cutlass has had […]
Today’s Turismoween post is a cautionary tale for all would-be crime fighters. From time to time people decide to become real life vigilantes, and one of our favorites is the “Petoskey Batman.” The Petoskey Batman recently landed in some trouble with Commissioner Gordon Sgt. Jeff Gorno of the Petoskey State Police when he interfered with […]
DT mostly focuses on older rear wheel drive Volvos (and sometimes SAABs) on Thorsday but today we decided to branch out and entertain a more modern twist on Swedish performance. The V70R was Volvo’s wagon companion to the S60R, which was a midsize performance car aimed loosely at the German rocketship sports sedans like the […]
In order to celebrate Halloween Daily Turismoween, we at DT would like to send out an open challenge to our readers to find the best/worst cars for the month of October. We want cars that raise the hair on the back of your neck worse than the scariest haunted house at Knott’s Scary Farm. The […]
The Jensen-Healey was a two seat sports car produced by British Automaker Jensen Motors from 1972 to 1976. Jensen made some fantastic looking cars in the late ’50s and early ’60s, but by the early ’70s was in its death throes. They did manage to turn out the Jensen-Healey before going belly-up, a plain looking […]
As a race support vehicle, an American full-size van is pretty ideal and hard to beat, unless you’d rather step up to the big leagues and convert an old box truck, that is. For those of you who need something to tow the rally car or haul a dirt bike without the need for the […]
The Subaru Impreza was available in the USA in naturally aspirated trim for a number of years, but it wasn’t until 2001 that the WRX version arrived with a turbocharged engine to give it the power to match its rally looks. This 2002 Subaru WRX has been lightly prepared for rally but still could be […]
Incredibly clean, low-mile Toyota pickup trucks from years gone by are one of our favorite conundrums here at DT; on the one hand, you have the opportunity to buy a near-new modern classic with years of life left in it, for substantially less than a new base-model Tacoma. On the other hand, if you find […]
