This is probably just me, but I forgot about the "recent" Ford Thunderbird..

Also, I shit you not.. But I saw a chromed out SSR the other day.

nobody remembers that mid-sided pickup truck hummer made before Gm pulled the plug on hummer. i think it was just a beef up chevy colorado.
idk

>>16079985
I never forgot this car existed, it's just hard finding examples that aren't rotting out from sitting or bear to shit

>>16080017
Part L-Series Saturn
Part Dodge Stratus

>>16079931
Saw one the other day with 24 inch wire wheels. I've also seen one towing a large boat. I wish I could forget these existed. Plus when you see one you are also reminded of other abominations like the Prowler

>>16079931
Saw one today, first I've seen in several years
Some of them came with LS2s(?)

>>16080060
I'd buy one just to change the "A" to an "O" in the model name.

>>16080029
I'm gonna go ahead and be honest: I like the way the Prowler looks, I just wish it weren't made by Chrysler. Stick a fuckhuge V8 or turbo'd V6 in it, and make sure a non-FCA company manufacturers it, and you've got a neat pseudo-future hot-rod.

>>16080053
My mom has a Swift, it's pretty good

>>16080120
Dude, these were the stoner cars before the wrx became affordable enough for high school kids to save up for them. $3k for an awd turbo coupe that could be boosted on the cheap.

>>16080177
>$3k
>for a Talon

No, sorry that's wrong
You could never get a Talon TSi AWD for $3k unless it was run into the fucking ground

I haven't seen one of these on the road in over a decade. They must be pretty comfy in all those boomer garages.

>>16079982
That's exactly what all H3s. Arguably the most useable hummer of the bunch since you can actually fit them on trails. They get shit on a lot, but they're good at what they were supposed to do.

I've got a canyon and would love to get an H3 alpha one day (the alpha added the v8).

All electric s10. Some are still out there. Had a 98 mile range. Similar to the EV1. GM was far ahead of its time for all electric vehicles.

>>16079966
I genuinely like these things.
I know theyre big, soft, hopeless etc.
But I'd love to Roadtrip in one

>>16080060

thats just a Vauxhall Astra MK2!! Always find badge engineered cars fascinating

>>16080031
Initially came with v6 iirc

>>16083600
its hell m8

when asking for spare parts you have to use the name of the more common variant else no one knows what the fuck you are on about
and on occasion the licence built versions of some cars with have minutely different specification's or bad quality control
so oem part or not you will have to bodge and adapt the parts Frankenstein style

its like this with fiat and bmc/leyland anyway

>>16083627

The Toyota Yaris Verso (aka Fun Cargo in Japan)

These things have seemingly disappeared from the streets entirely. I can't remember the last time I actually saw one. I only remembered it from randomly seeing an ad for a used one in my area. Then again, IIRC they didn't sell well at all.

Massively underrated

>>16083433

They were produced in limited quantities in 94 I believe. Sold exclusively as a government fleet vehicle on a 10 year agreement or something. Any still out there are vehicles that should have been crushed already.

I mean, the one pictured clearly has a coolant reservoir sticking out so its not a real electric. As far as S10 variants go, the S10 EV is the rarest, and also one that nobody knows much about due to the fact that they weren't publicly sold. It would be amazing if some where still functional and on the road still.

The drive units, charger, and battery all use coolant depending on the car. I can't remember the thermal system for a Prius though, haven't worked on one since the first gens were coming out

If it wasnt only availible in automatic.... was an H6 and generally the closest from concept to production.

Hi there!
You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bait to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!
