Car Porn

Speaking of MotorTrend, they canceled all their TV shows yesterday.

 

….but there’s still “car porn”!

 

I was shopping for a clean, low mileage 03-04 Mach One and came home with this instead.
2008 with 7,500 miles, lowered, tuned, KR exhaust, 3.73’s and a few other things. Dyno’d at 540 RWHP

 

And YouTube. They are all transitioning to there.

First I’ve heard of this. They say any reason why?

 

I’ve heard plenty but only conjecture. I believe the answer is somewhere between market saturation and maybe a demand shift???

 

Well it sounds like the Discovery Channel was the owner of MotorTrend and they sold it to a new owner.

 

Freiberger explains what happened in the above video.

 

My bad I didn’t watch it. I’ll watch it when I leave work. To many machines running to hear it.

 

Would love to find a clean, unmodded one of those for a reasonable price.

Looking last year I found most Mach 1's were anywhere from $15-20k depending on mileage/condition and the S197 GT500 ~$30k+.

 

Watched last night. Sad ends to amazing shows, some shall continue on, I suffered a destroyed knee from my job due to a workplace accident that required reconstructive surgery, it was when roadkill first released as a fully formed entity on YouTube, I binged it and most other channels along with anything I could find of my preferred gun, hunting, motorcycle, etc shows during that downtime. Was one of the few things that kept me from going stir crazy as I was literally couch stranded.

 

That’s an awesome picture!! Had a dune buggy years ago and never should’ve sold it. Love to take that one for a ride though the snow!
