The E30 generation BMW 3-series offers one of the better cost to fun ratios for a compact sport sedan — but modern cars are so bloody fast that you’ll find your classic 5-speed 80s sedan getting schooled at the stop lights by an EV Spark. Obviously the answer is to hot rod it…or buy the […]
This has to be the strangest thing for sale on eBay right now, aside from Chia Pets that look like a human head, those things freak me the heck out. Anyway, this next feature isn’t freaky, but it has two huge inline-6 engines mounted up front. Find this 1954 GMC Semi Tractor here on eBay […]
The MGC was two year experiment by the British Motor Corporation to inject some additional sportiness into their MGB chassis and replace the retiring Austin-Healey 3000. For whatever reason it didn’t sell well, making it one of the rarer variants from the 18 years of MGB production (1962-1980). Find this 1969 MGC here on eBay […]
The car shows of the world are overrun with blower equipped hot rods, spitting fire out their tailpipes while being gently driven by elderly owners who have no interest doing burnouts and terrorizing the neighborhood. So why not skip the fuel bills, and angry looks from neighbors when you wake them up at 6am Saturday […]
Any car guy worth his beans is familiar with the AMG Hammer, which used the big W124 chassis to build a $170k super-sedan that put sports cars to shame.

The E30 generation BMW 3 Series is a great way to start your aging German steel collection: prices are low, expectations are high and this next feature has a surprise under the hood.

It’s Wednesday, so that means it’s time for another edition of Daily Turismo’s better than $1 a gallon gas game also known as Mid Week Match-Up! Time to get back to basics; find me the best car with 6 cylinders for $5k-10k. Why 6? Because 4 is too few and 8 is too many. And […]
The first generation RX-7 (SA/FB built in Japan from 1978 to 1985) was a beautiful ballerina in the sports car world. The RX-7’s lithe frame was propelled by an equally dainty engine – the Mazda rotary. So, why would you take an RX-7 and power it with a cast iron block BMW inline-6? It is […]

The PV was the first unibody automobile from Volvo when it was first released for the 1947 model year and somehow managed to survive with little changes through the 1966 model year.
