And if they’re black, people will paint them as they see fit.

Everyone who can’t afford colorful brake calipers

I can agree with that assessment. If I had been the author of this article, I would’ve taken a bit more space to expand on why this investment in the engines can be seen as troublesome

Man, it'd be cool if there was a site here focused on sports (but not exclusively.) I'd probably have read it everyday.

The problem wouldn’t be you being a skilled driver, it would be you interacting with those who aren’t. Honestly, the biggest problem on freeways would probably be lane discipline if such a license existed. All the “I’m doing 5 over the speed limit, he can go around me if he wants,” people and just plain oblivious…

I’m glad for you that $1200 isn’t crazy expensive.

We’re really going to lament the absence of a manual tranny in a car that is exclusively purchased by their owners to have someone else drive them around in it?

Are we watching Jalopnik fade into the mist of internet irrelevancy? I didnt think Patrick George was that monumental but man I havent seen anything new stick to the walls and a lot of shit has been flung at em.

“even though he is 65 and he was facing 15 years.”

And he spent his early childhood in 1950s rural Brazil - probably not the greatest start for long-term health.

And neither qualifies as “showing his ass”

Jalopink seems to think that if they publish nonsense once, they can use that previous article as a source to pretend like it’s true forever.

Yep.  I really wish Raph would stop covering the Ghosn stuff because it’s clear it’s not something he’s capable of covering objectively for whatever reason.  “I’m going to die in prison” and “I should have taken that other job that I turned down” are not only reasonable but logically correct positions for someone who…

“Ghosn did not implicate Shinzō Abe and the entirety of Japan’s conservative government, which bummed me out as it would have been very juicy.”

I get that you want everything to be how the big stupid one percenter is terrible at everything but come on.

He believes he had to escape or else he would’ve died in prison, even though he is 65 and he was facing 15 years.

“Get it so Americans don’t need a car at all.”

If your point is that he didn’t call out *all* people involved, then this part is quite misleading because it implies he didn’t name *any* names or out any of the exact people involved (when he did, according to others here):

I love ya Raph, but I’m pretty sure you missed the good shit.

What were you listening to?

WOW. Is this you got all out of this amazing interview? No wonder people think media is little better than propaganda.
