Wow where is the denim?

 

Also, epitome of what?

Was this You Tube or broadcast?

A seat belt might have kept that piss-poor jacket in place.

This morning’s peanut gallery reminds me of BaT.

I love the revamped Leno's Garage this season. Not sure he gave that '02 the props it deserved but he was a fan. The quote above refers to him saying the '02 back in the day was a versatile car, sporty and practical that neither favored the affluent or budget minded, more of a sort of everyman's sporty vehicle.

Leno was a teen when these were new and he was a gofer at a dealer that sold these.

He looks like an Easter Island head.

Yes..."the Golden Retriever of automobiles".  My favorite phrase from 2002Scoob in Germany...I think.

Unassuming, makes everyone smile, and loves to be petted.

The show just aired a few nights ago on CNBC, worth taping. 

 

Here's the clip we're talking about, featuring Huey Lewis!:

Great clip and accurate description of the 02. But, the way things are going, it’s fast becoming a “Rich People’s “ car. 

well then, you chose poorly, perhaps something like a ford pinto would be more appropriate for you...it will always be worthless....and blow up in your face...like the rants.
