Bradley, not sure where you are in NE Ohio but there are plenty of touchless carwashes that have unlimited washes for $24 a month. I try and go every couple days in the winter, on the way home, before it goes in an above 32 degree garage for the night. The car is ceramic coated and the front end has PPF applied but it

How on earth do you spray your car down for $2.00? It takes a minimum of $8 - $9 to spray the Crosstrek down (including the undercarriage) to a point where I’m satisfied that there’s no de-icing grime. That’s without using the soap-sprayer. If I rinse=>soap=>high-pressure spray, it’s going to be $15(ish). 

Some wildly varied definitions of “great” in this list... Even you admit in your writing that some of these are awful, so why even bother putting “great” in the title?

I’m slightly surprised how many entries get 15 mpg. The laws of physics are clearly in play as everything is some combination of big, heavy, powerful, and unaerodynamic, except for the X6 which is ugly as sin and deserves to be launched into the sun

Oh I was pretending to be insane.

Honestly pretty popular as a taxi so you’re probably not wrong.  Anything that can take that kind of beating every day will probably last 300k or more.

It’s encouraging to see Lexus slowly beginning to minimize that godawful open-mouthed grill design they’ve been sticking to for 10+ years. They’ve still got a ways to go, but when they do, good riddance.

ngl i’d prefer this over the corolla, sadly can afford neither lolol

Literally anything that you need to adjust while the vehicle is in motion.

No it’s completely because they want the subscription for updates. Otherwise they’d have an app that you can download map updates from your phone through bluetooth.

Painfully pretty and amazing to drive with the right transmission, but it would cost me a kidney, half a lung and all of my bone marrow to keep it on the road.

Actually, it’s especially with the “screen as king” approach. It’s a dangerous concept, created simply to cut costs.

Sticks out like a BumperDumper?

The grid penalty is the ultimate insult after a defective track ruins your car and costs beaucoup Euros to fix.

I LOVE that Cummins Gallardo. That’s the kind of engine swap you do just for the silly factor. Find a wrecked Lamborghini on Copart, find a wrecked Cummins truck, then make them kiss. Nobody would expect a Gallardo to sound like a school bus. Bonus points if you add a stack with a flapper on it. Oh, and you need

This past week, I got a Mustang and an Edge as rentals.

I don’t think Toyota can lecture me on EVs until they actually make a Prime for actual sale.

Shocking that people aren’t wild about $60k (at 7% interest!) cars with limited, often-broken charging infrastructure and insane repair and maintenance costs.

Does the Vette come with Jorts and New Balance or are those extra?

E39 540i or any flavor of E38 7-series. Owned both of them in the past, and also own an E39 M5 with over 170K miles right now (which I shall never sell). They’re all the luxury you need (heated steering wheel, sunshades etc), the manual gearbox on the E39s is superb, handling is peak BMW (despite it’s weight), and you
