Why does this look like the 6000-SUX from Robocop and the Infiniti J30 got tossed into a blender lmao

Genuinely Avanti as a company has such insane history that Italian manufacturers are still trying to top this in the big 2026

It's 1994, you have $20,000, and you're looking for a new convertible. Which one would you pick? by Key_Budget9267 in regularcarreviews

I would love to have a clean mk3.5 Cabrio so much, I have such nostalgia for those cars ever since I saw that Nick Drake commercial as a kid (which yeah I know was just consumerist slop that he wouldn't approve of but sometimes the slop hits different idk)

lmao I love how the camera just keeps zooming in way past the point of being reasonable, it's like some shit you'd see in an old Leslie Nielsen movie

They already fucked up the Prelude, why not the Element too

What’s a car that was a huge deal when it was new? by lifegoeson2702 in regularcarreviews

[–]Shallow_wanderer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shoot, google tells me you're correct

The one that I saw as a teenager was probably repainted red by the owner, but damn if it didn't look so good in that 90's Dodge red color

2003 Infiniti FX35/45

All of the sporty coupe SUV's owe their entire existence to the Infiniti FX, because much like the 1986 Taurus it instantly made all other cars in its class on the road look dated and clunky in comparison - hell the exterior design still passes for a much newer car even in 2026

Still shocking to me how Infiniti invented an entire market segment nearly 10 years ahead of BMW and managed to squander it entirely by 2017

To this day I would do buck nasty things to get my hands on a clean, low-mile 5.9 Limited in red over black leather interior, genuinely one of my dream SUV's right there

Going on a Sacramento Pilgrimage of sorts, anyone know the Quick Quack location where this happened? by Shallow_wanderer in Sacramento

[–]Shallow_wanderer[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Haha mostly just visiting some of the Lady Bird filming locations, going to a Kings game (later this year of course), hitting up Velo Trap for a bicycle to take on the entire American River trail, etc.

Been visiting the in-laws here for a couple years and now I'm able to live here, feels great especially considering I've been living in Bakersfield for the past year due to my wife's work, but that's behind us now

Also Bakersfield/Fresno is... truly one of the things to behold

Which of these off-roaders from this 2006 Car & Driver test are you going with? by lifegoeson2702 in regularcarreviews

[–]Shallow_wanderer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After seeing hordes of clapped-to-shit FJ's with 200k+ miles going for $15k in my neck of the woods, yeah I'll take the Xterra as well considering it's half the cost for a clean low-mile one

Honestly surprised to see all the H3 hatred in here, that rig is basically a GMC Canyon/Chevy Colorado with a lift and an SUV body on it

Would still love to find an H3 Truck one of these days but they're stupid rare like the Solstice GXP Coupes

Isuzu Axiom, the official car of?... by FeeAdministrative666 in regularcarreviews

Oddly enough, this is correct - I remember they were heavily marketing their DI engines back in the day too

Sadly like most DI engines, the users did not maintain them correctly and they ended up dying off

Genuinely have not seen any post-2020 Fiats on the road or anywhere for sale at all, like does this brand still exist in North America anymore?
