Those look terrific, and not just because we can't have them. Partially that, though. But still.

That badge is actually way better than the traditional plasti-chrome lettering on most cars. When did the world decide THAT was a good idea, by the way? And we needn't even mention the "gold kit" versions still rolling around on vintage Lexi and forth, I hope.

Impertinently large or not, at least the big F O R D…

If that was the motive, it was just as childish, spiteful, and ineffective. And regardless, it educated New York and the country as to just how empty the "broken windows" and stop n frisk lite approaches really are. Heavy-handed policing is not effective policing. No one missed it at all.

NYPD: "You'll miss our overactive policing of minor infractions when it's gone!"

NYC: "No, actually we didn't."

Better put some little filter booties on those open ITBs though.

The dog's name is ... Basil? British people are awesome.

Be better if the test came back positive, requiring costly and annoying treatments. He'll live, but at least he won't have benefitted from murdering the animal he treated as a toy and killed to avoid the inconvenience of a few shots. Dick.

This is a great piece. I didn't even know that Sony had pulled distribution. A cowardly, cynical move indeed. Cartoon bad guys win with cartoon tactics. We're through some kind of "perception = reality" looking glass here. I wonder if the "serious press" will have anything this cogent and insightful to say. Great…

is what I saw when I read the headline. Then again, I am not god at maths. Surprised this one's not doing better. Manual wagon, AWD, 300 hp? I even like the orange interior. Really only the "rad" color hits the wrong note. Why go through all the effort of having a sporty car that looks like a non-sporty car, then…

Great piece. I do think there is a lot of confusion about how well-meaning members of the various empowered demographics are supposed to behave. That's a shame because it just reinforces the idea that we are all so different that we can't possibly understand or empathize or simply support each other. The new scrutiny…

Probably not true in this case, given the "Lamborghini Testarossa" though. That is not a thing that exists.

'Roos have a nasty downward slashing groin kick you might to consider in setting your fight fee.

Those exist, actually. It's just like the 3M et al. clear paint protector film, but you can get it just for your headlights. I had the front of one car done with the stuff. It glazes after a few years and will not come cleanly of off plastic bumpers, but it peels right off of paint and headlights (plastic or not).

The Fiat reminds me of the Ford "Shogun." Fiesta + the Ford SHO 224 hp Yahama 24v 6cyl in the backseat. Jay Leno has talked about his a few times. Had huge rear fender flares with air intakes as well.

"Please bring the $7.89m, in cash, to the Krazy Karlz Nail Salon parking lot at 2:45 a.m. and wait under the blown out streetlight in the SW corner by the Dumpster with the briefcase or gunny sack of cash plainly visible. Please come alone and also bring some beers. Black or brown briefcase preferred. No kids or…

As it stands, Teslas are impressive performers that have changed the way electrics are viewed and brought much-needed cache to the underlying technology.

With half the horsepower and acceleration, and a 500-mile range, at half the price, the Tesla would be the best car in the world, and an earth-shaking threat to the…

That's the magic of Rotas!

Musk has been brilliant leveraging the electric car's secret weapon — performance — to get Tesla off the ground as a high-end automaker. Everyone thought of electric vehicles as cheap and anemic, and he shut them up on both counts.

I enjoyed watching the curmudgeons in the old-school car enthusiast mags having to…

Everyone interesting and decent identifies with outsiders, malcontents, and the excluded. Because the world isn't right the way it is. Things aren't the way they should be. It's hard for people to notice that truth when everything has gone smoothly for them and they've always felt powerful and liked and invulnerable.…

It's a source of continual insult that vehicles made by European or Japanese manufacturers expressly for the American market seem to follow a "bigger, simpler, cheaper" model. The dumbing down of the Jetta and Passat was a classic example and the antithesis of what made VW a hit over here.

That said, the MQB platform…
