The new trend for “vintage” cars is rides from the 80s and 90s. I say vintage in quotes because I don’t want to believe that I’m old yet. Now, you may think the best way to Radwood is a 993 Porsche—or maybe even the iconic Lamborghini Countach—but a real connoisseur brings a Geo Prizm.

A reader sent me a tip on . Whoever made the listing clearly knows what they have, with an exterior that is listed as “rusty” and an interior of “who cares.” They also note that “tetanus shots are required” before a test drive.

What amazes me is that not only is this Prizm with over a quarter of a million miles still around but the fact that the dealer decided to actually list it for sale and not just toss it to the auction. That being said, $1,000 may still be a bit steep for this survivor.

In case you are unsure about the ownership experience on a Geo Prizm, the dealer did include some impressive testimonials. One person even declared it “the best car ever.”

Back in the day, the Geo Prizm was probably not a car you actively sought but somehow just acquired. But now, you have a chance to see this car through a different lens.

The traditional recipe for Baja Bug was simplicity plus rugged capability covered in a patina of grungy purposefulness. With today's '66 Bug, you can probably add faster than a scalded cat to the ingredient list. Whoa, there's a new bar in town, and they're serving up free pitchers of haterade....

For $79,900, You Can Rock Down To Electric Avenue
In the nascent days of the electrical age, Nikola Tesla got turned on by Alternating Current while Edison called Direct Current his bitch. Whatever, today's Tesla rocks it AC/DC, but will its price shock you? In a decidedly revisionist outcome, yesterday's ended up with a medicine-manly 67% Nice Price win....

There have been lots of Shelby homages created over the years. And while Cobras and Mustangs have been the typical targets, today's Dodge shows that even mini-truck restorers can go on a Shelby rampage. Unsurprisingly, yesterday's spooled up a lot of discourse and eventually blew a flaming 56% Nice Price...
