But they are.  Diesel is horrible in cars.  It makes them drive like tractors.  Yes, even brand new golfs.

This!  Considering it was the directors first movie as director makes it all the more impressive.

The whole article and not a single Layer Cake ref?  Slipping man, slipping.

I had the worlds worst X1/9 once. To give you an idea, you could rev it to redline, sidestep the clutch and it made that sort of whorp noise that a sleeping dog makes when you accidentally stand on it. Then it would lurch forward and stall. Not spin the wheels. Lurch. Then stall.

Buy a Lancia Montecarlo or a Fiat X1/9.  The experience sitting in the passenger seat of the flatbed is *exactly* the same.

Good. Fuck you Nissan. You’re still not forgiven:

I’m getting a very rapey vibe from the first one.

Pfft.  A tedious minivan, a big engine and an utter dismal failure of an Elise are not innovation.

No idea what any of those are. In the UK we have a leaf, a gtr, a 370z and some parent/child hauling blobs all of which look/feel the same.  Not a single exciting/interesting/compelling thing in the range since.....forever ago.

Thank you, I was beginning to think it was only me who saw this.

Still looks uncomfortably like something Infiniti might have released a decade ago and is still selling.

woop de fucking doo.  Forget the logo and make some new cars already.

Strangely, the VW system is actually a bit more advanced, if that’s even the right word, since the old Autostick had a torque converter, allowing the car to be driven from a dead stop in any of the gear ratios, even the highest (fourth) gear, though if you did that you’d be envying glaciers for their acceleration.

Didn’t I see this yesterday being pimped by Fisker?

I’ be happier if they kept it how it is mechanically and just went easy on the ugly stick.

Enough about the fucking Bronco already.  It’s just not that interesting.

Why did we think wood was the way forward?

Is there some we non locals might read this?  This sounds awesome.

Europeans are lurching to the far right.  Don’t think we don’t have short memories too.  

As Stern elaborated: “One big difficulty is that what we feel like we’re seeing isn’t what we’re actually seeing. The human visual system is a lousy judge of how well it’s doing.
