Tailgating on purpose. I've seen people do this and it's quite dangerous.
Fiat 500 Abarth. Its a fast happy little thing. Plus it thinks its a Lamborghini.
The corkscrew at Laguna Seca is pretty wicked.
Something vintage with no power steering, brakes, and a manual gearbox. You learn a lot about driving when you have no power assistance.
I love my 73 914! Sure it's built like crap and could catch on fire aay anytime, but it has so much soul. New cars just don't have the same unhinged feeling that old ones do. Sure they're better built, more environmentaly friendly but they just don't have that magic.
The hood scoop is actually functional though.
I don't like this new concept. It looks big and heavy. I really never saw the problem with the styling of the bug eye, blob eye, and hawk eye.I thought they all looked brilliant. I=The Hawk eye WRX wagon was my favorite ever.
Chevrolet. Most of the time when someone pulls out in front of me, or cuts me off, it's a douche in a chevy.
I hear you. All Tracs are rare and when you find them theyre usually beat to shit. Ive wanted the previous gen all trac but I've had no luck in finding one that was worth the money.
How hard is to get into a career as an automotive journalist? I've always wanted a job similar to yours and have wondered how difficult it is to get into that field.
