So awful. :(

I like to imagine that this car was gently placed all the way up there on that curb with a crane.

There’s no one left.

2023 was a pretty bad year for this guy; there were also multiple court case judgments against him to the tune of about $50k from what I assume are credit card companies (Citi Bank, Discover, etc). Sounds like he finally lost his shit.

Well that’s just a waste of a good plane.

The Autopian is a phenomenal site, and their success is well deserved.

As a stopgap, I blocked the entire domain; an error message is easier to deal with than a page load, but it’s costing Jalopnik readers. I don’t know if that’s the goal or not at this point. Maybe someone’s angling for a cheaper buyout option.

These will be unobtanium. They’re as much truck as most truck buyers need, and the main reason a lot of people held out was the lack of AWD + hybrid combo. This essentially opens the order books for the snow belt.

I genuinely feel bad for the powertrain engineers who worked on these things. There’s a lot of great tech there, wrapped in stainless steel garbage.

Japan is pretty aggressive about bicycle regulations, to a degree which baffles me. They’re treated as vehicles under most of the regulations in place, and there are penalties and fines for not wearing a helmet, riding aggressively, following traffic too close or failing to yield to automobiles. Licenses are required…

Oh my gosh, look at the little key fob, it’s adorable.

BMW made the Z4 available with a manual again, which is interesting.

This is genuinely part of it, I think. I don’t love seeing a dozen “exclusive” first looks drop at the same time.

I think I found a picture of your vehicle!

That was an edge, yes.

Suspiciously specific.

Was it RHD? They were identical vehicles aside from the emblem, so someone might have just done a swap in order to feel... something. Such weird things.

Every time I see one, I’m re-reminded of just how large they actually were.

To really take things to the next level, it should be made available only every other year.

To be faiirrrrr, it’s narrow enough that you could just scooch to the left side of the lane a little bit and then pretend you’re piloting a McLaren F1.
