Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: Factory Racer Porsche 914-6 For $325,000?
Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: Factory Racer Porsche 914-6 For $325,000?-March 2024

We had the score a 44% on the Crack-Pipe-O-Meter™ last Friday, but that was due to 21% of the vote going to "other", thanks to a poll glitch. Today we're going with a car that most likely earns an approval rating of about 99.9999% from our readers: a factory-built Porsche 914-6 race car that spent its working life as a test vehicle in Stuttgart and never got beat up on the race track… until a few years ago, when it hit the vintage-race circuit. The car's seller adheres firmly to hallowed eBay tradition and goes for the EASY ON THE EYES CAPSLOCK style, though we're going to have to dock him some points for insufficiently incorrect spelling and punctuation, but it's the car's price that really gets our attention: $325,000! Great car, but would you need to smoke a rock the size of your head to have that price make sense?

79% of our readers thought that $25,000 was a hubba-fied price for 1984 Dodge Daytona Turbo Z, but…

How Do You Feel About This Bronco With A Super Duty Face, That Looks Like A Photoshop But Actually Exists?
“Oh great,” I muttered to myself, browsing Twitter. “Somebody stretched the face of a Super Duty over a classic Bronco in Photoshop and posted it for instant virality and indigestion.” You see enough works of fiction like this and you really of the culture around car renders. The “what...

The 2022 Subaru WRX Is Too Grown Up For Its Own Good
As much as I’d like to think I’d be a great product planner, I really don’t envy the people in charge of bringing to market. It’s a car that has to be a sport sedan that’s also a daily driver. It has to make you feel like you’re driving...

Determining what year a car is can actually prove to be a trickier question than you’d think. The year the car was actually manufactured is a huge part of it, of course, but what about a car made from unused old stock? Or there’s but were actually built in...

The 2022 Honda Passport TrailSport Is The Germ Of An Idea
The Honda Passport is a mid-size SUV, but not one that is the first to come to mind when you think about going off-road. The 2022 Honda Passport TrailSport is trying to change that. ( I had a brain fart and originally called the Passport full-size, but it is mid-size,...
