Yep. I found my 2017 NSX in January 2021, at Ferrari of Long Island in Plainview, NY 11803. It was a great deal.

Saw this on the Upstate NY Forum. It amazes me that most occupants just crawled out and walked away.

^ Insane. Porsches came close but held on; whereas VW bugs really put on roll over shows.

I suspect the bad ones may have been filtered out.

They save those for ‘Faces of Death’ videos.

This is not a vintage car, but this Nurburgring accident always sticks with me. I don't know who would take a fully loaded CR-V to such a track, it looks like they had a month's worth of camping supplies in that SUV. lol. The Incident occurs at the 1:04 mark on the video if you want to fast forward it. I always get a chuckle out of this one , they reported the driver and passenger were injured but were okay, but it was a nasty accident going right over the guard rail.

Wyoming moves to ban sale of Electric Vehicles by 2035, lol, but not in an enforceable way only through moral suasion. I kind of like it. They are moving to pass legislation with no teeth, just to appease the oil and gas industry which is big there.

Makes perfect sense, in a Wyoming kind of way. Did all twelve citizens of the state push for the ban?
