“Pay Us Now Or Toyota Gets The Corvette”

Aww, come on! I had to read this crowd-baiting click-magnet (and the associated frothing at the mouth) at Autoblog, do I have to read it here, too?

I have only the hope that TTAC posters will show some restraint on the topic. If I read one “OMGLoLz, Toy-yota will Vanilla teh Vette!” I’ll crack.

Dammit, you had me looking for Avant Garde Gothic with this post! It’s my favorite font! Now my grandmother’s worried because I get up at 7:30 tomorrow.

Nevermind. Good job with this piece.

(P.S. it’s not as bad as it looks. It’s really only 12:50 right now where I’m at, not 2:50.)

From my experience, the Yankees are more or less universally hated outside of New York.

Hmm… Replace New York with Midwest and you have the Detroit 3.

Go figure.

…way more people would notice that Howard Stern had disappeared than if the Corvette did…

…. OK … that’s a joke, right?

Thank God that we finally have something to laugh about in this morass.

BTW gotta love that FUBAR in the middle! Paul Lynde would be proud.

Stephan Wilkinson :

The Yankees?

I bet about equal amounts of people in the country are passionate about Corvettes and Mustangs as that franchise.

I’d give you Howard Stern for half a ‘Vette. I don’t even like Vettes.

Prize for all 25? A Toyota Venza, of course.

The Corvette is like an American institution? It’s a car, forgodsake. The Marines are an American institution. The Supreme Court. The Yankees. The New York Times (yes, the New York Times).

I could go on, but way more people would notice that Howard Stern had disappeared than if the Corvette did. Gearheads all seem to think that the rest of the world actually gives a scheiss whether a car has eight cyinders in a vee or two in a circle. They don’t.

Is there a spot on this board that says, “Win”?

I hope that Speaker Pelosi really understands how the Corvette is like an American institution, but I’m not holding my breath…

“SAIC buys Buick, leases it back to GM”

That’s Brilliance (ho-ho) right there.
