This next car comes as a tip from Art C who writes: Some seriously cheap fun here. 275 hp, 6 speed, posi… strip it and turn it into an auto x toy?? Art is onto something here because this thing should be fun and the missing title shouldn’t scare away the guy who wants to race […]
The X100 generation Jaguar XK8 was released in 1996 on a platform shared with the Aston Martin DB7. It was a much more modern looking car than the XJS is replaced and looks dead gorgeous in drop top spec if you ask me. What could make it better? An engine that is more powerful, more […]
This next car is a late model Japanese sport sedan that threatened BMW’s 3-series for the title of king of the luxury sport 4-doors when it was released in 2003. The Infiniti G35 wasn’t available in a spec that could compete with BMW’s M3, but it was available with Nissan’s fantastic V6 and today will […]
So, you want a Ferrari, but you don’t want to pay the expensive buy-in. You could buy a Fiero with a body kit or build your own 250TR, but with all that clanging and banging, people are going to think you are trying to bust El Chapo out of prison, or are being visited by […]
As previously mentioned, DT’s logo guru Kaibeezy is relocating to Neptune for career reasons, and the cost per gram to send stuff into space is astronomical, so he is liquidating his entire fleet via these pages. Up next in the DT exclusive fleet sale is this 1998 BMW E39 540i 6MT with 184K miles offered […]
The E39 (1995-2003) BMW 540i is one of the few decent BMW performance bargains available on the used car market today. Prices for the all-alloy V8 engined cars start around the price of a winter beater and even the nice/rare examples trade for well less than the price of new Nissan Versa…actually, you might have […]
Porsche’s 914, 928, 924, and 944 coincidentally followed a tidy naming convention wherein the last digit corresponded with its cylinder count. Stuttgart then introduced the 968 as if to say We’re Porsche and our models don’t need numerical significance. We’re above significance. The 968 got marks for good handling behavior but was nonetheless expelled from […]
Quicksand is a non-Newtonian fluid (like silly putty) that behaves like a solid until it is gently stressed and suddenly it flows like a liquid. The result is a surface that looks like sand, but a person (or large animal) who attempts to cross its surface will suddenly find himself sinking into a jello-like ooze […]
The Jaguar XJS was a luxury grand tourer from those crazy blokes in Coventry and was built from 1975 to 1996. The big cat is equipped with an inline-6 or V12 that requires routine upkeep from a Jaguar specialist, so engines frequently get swapped. This one looks nicely modified and has a Chevy LT1 V8 […]
The friendly, fat-cheeked Wisconsinite B5.5 Passat you’re looking at has an unusual yet desirable combination of drivetrain options. And it’s here to rob you of everything you own. Volkswagen decided to fit an experimental W8 engine in an already crowded engine bay, leaving little room for anything but your checkbook. Find this 2002 Volkswagen Passat […]
