Yeah, you're right. They're not really zombie cars. They were driven to death. Of course death probably came around 400,000 + miles. The ironic thing about BMW's and Mercedes is that those are some of the biggest pieces of shit on the road, but for some reason people love those cars. Look at any Consumer Reports review on Mercedes and BMW. It's pretty much black circles all day. Why the fuck am I talking about cars? Thread derailed.
what are you driving there bud, '86 Corolla hatch?
You can't fuck with old-school Toyota. Them shits NEVER die. Zombie cars.
Then why do I never see em around? The only cars from the 80s I still see on the road are BMWs and Mercedes.

That's my brother's old 94 Toyota Tercel! Came with a 4 speed manual (yes, only 4 forward gears), no passenger side mirror and no A/C!
Surprisingly, it had forearm strengtheners on the doors. As a bonus, these muscle building cranks also opened and closed the windows!
My best friends boyfriend had one of these ... we all cram in the back and head to keg parties.
