HHR SS Panel, but not one you want…
Here we have a Chevy HHR SS Panel, which, in and of itself, is an intriguing vehicle. This one, however, has hydraulics and 20-inch spinners, along with a flame job with burning money. You’ll have to decide whether that is desirable in your world. In stock form, the HHR SS could hit 60mph in about…

SHO means Sierra High Output?
The Merkur XR4ti, known as the Ford Sierra XR4i to the rest of the world, was a rear-drive luxury hatchback with turbocharged, four cylinder power. Though not a sales success due to terrible marketing decisions, it has a strong enthusiast following due to a very high fun-to-drive factor. The seller of today’s car decided to…

Best of the Breed: 1971 2002tii Touring
The BMW 2002 is known as one of the best handling, most fun to drive cars. This is the “Touring” hatchback version that was never sold in the US and, being a hatchback, adds practicality. Being a “tii”, this has the top, fuel injected engine. Tail light snobs will also like the round units on…

Pronounce it Share-Odd
With a name like Share-Odd, one pictures sophisticated, old-world charm. That doesn’t match the shitbox called the Charade, though this is a perfectly durable entry car if you can live with 47 horsepower. Daihatsu had a short, roughly five-year life in the US in the late 80s and early 90s. The Charade was joined in…

Citroen: Keeping France Weird Long Before Austin
Any Citroen is quite a sight, but this adds the strangeness (for the US market) of right-hand drive! The seller recently imported this car from the UK and claims it is registered in Oregon. Given it is from the 1974 model year, one might even be able to register this in California! Don’t get too…

Epic Mural Somewhere in Tucson
Yes, somewhere in or near Tucson is a mural featuring an Isuzu Vehicross and a customized 1970 Mustang! Also, this ad serves as a classic example of the shameless use of a girlfriend or daughter in ad. Presumably, no males will complain about the shameless part of this ad and I also assume all Oddimotive…

Pre-Audi AWD from the US of A
Just a few days ago, we shared a delightfully brown AMC Spirit and lamented its lack of all-wheel drive. When it rains, it pours; so today’s feature is an AMC Eagle SX/4. This time, the only regret is the engine. This is a claimed 67K mile, two-owner car, although it appears that the wheels have been…

Awesomely Brown AMC Spirit
This is the brownest car we’ve seen in a while, which makes it among the best cars we’ve seen recently. This is a claimed very low mileage (73K) car, and the condition backs up the claim. While it’s not perfect, the seller correctly claims this as a survivor. One would hate to refurbish this car…

Pontiac T1000 Project
If you absolutely must have a Pontaic T1000, you have serious problems. That being said, here’s one for sale. The T1000 was Pontiac’s twin to the Chevy Chevette, although this came along in about the sixth model year for Chevette. Cooler heads must have left the company or caved to CAFE rules after years of…

Crack Pipe Price on a Cool 3Cyl Turbo
It’s no secret that Oddimotive loves the Chevy Sprint Turbo. When we started two years ago, these were throwbacks to CAFE regulations. Today, there is a modern equivalent, the Ford Fiesta Ecoboost, also sporting a turbocharged three-cylinder engine and which is fun to drive in a sick and twisted sort of way. This car has…
