FS: 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T R-Spec

I'm selling my Genesis Coupe for a couple of reasons: 1) moving to Los Angeles for a new job. No more CDC :( 2) wanted something smaller that would be easier to park in LA (.....okay, i wanted something that would autocross stupidly well, too) the details: Price: Asking $15k for everything Location:...

Re: Educate me about small vintage cars! (MGs, Triumphs, etc

yeah it's more just the desire for something that's tiny, light, and unique. in that case i should probably get a lotus elise - unique and light...doesn't have nearly the reliability issues of its predecessors. sounds like i'd need a dedicated garage if i were actually going to get an MG or Triumph....

Educate me about small vintage cars! (MGs, Triumphs, etc)

I went with a coworker to look at a vintage truck in which he was interested. The dealership also had what I think was a 1977 MG MGB. I sat in it, and was surprised at how well the car actually seats (if you're not too tall that is). Originally, my gameplan was to eventually get a corvette or cobra,...
