Distant cousin?

Although I love this (as it reminds me of a jet fighter) I think the reason you cant buy one from a major manufacturer is: "how do you get out in a roll over?" Mercedes had this problem with the new gullwing SLS and their solution was to put explosive bolts (yes EXPLOSIVE bolts) that went off when a roll over was…

If the 5 to 8 year old Convertible versions of these was any example of the reliability of these cars then I would pass. I was looking at a convertible version of these and was surprised at the common problems the fabric top has for such an expensive vehicle. Stopping half way, not closing or opening etc. To replace…

Would there be enough resources on earth itself to build such large buildings? The mass alone looks like more then we could ever create with the raw materials earth has.

I owned a Mercedes and a BMW and an Audi each once in my life , people who BUY Mercedes are just not into tuning them as much or as much as car enthusiasts in general. Usually those who buy AMG cars just go to the dealership and tell them "Give me the best C, E or S you have, money no object" hence you end up with old…

I only need ONE! THE ONE!

Answer is ALWAYS MIATA!!!

This is for anyone reading this thread to not be afraid of comments like those above. Car culture is dying as it is and this type of hatred and in-fighting will only further the degradation of something I love. This is Jalopnik we all have our different tastes and everyone has their personal mods be it for attention…

Cost of the repair costs more then the cost of the car. Maybe with labor and replacing the rear quarter panel, welding, checking of the frame it was too costly. Also maybe the estimate used OEM parts which are much more expensive now that the car is out of production for so long.

Purists.... dont express any personal tastes because by default anything different is bad.

The crux of the problem is not you Matt or the site but the community as a whole. There is no longer any individuality anymore or innovation in the car world in general and if you are innovative or wish to be an individual you get shot down HARD by the community, not just here but in real life as well. Growing up in…

Miatas are ALWAYS the answer, you DONT buy them for horsepower but cruising and driving enjoyment, the newer Miatas have TOO MUCH horsepower and compared to the NAs start to feel more like Accords and Camry's then CRX's/Civic Hatches and RWD Fastback 86 corollas like the should. Cars get bigger over time granted but I…

Did he test drive one? Even in Abarth trim the car feels very cheap and super super bumpy on anything but a newly paved ultra smooth road. I mean you feel EVERY bump in that car and although fast you still feel the FWD pull very strongly which is a little unsettling. Make sure he test drives it before, in this case…

I am reluctant to agree. Although Corvettes are great cars when bought new because GM cost cutting bean counters the interior, plastics and overall build quality is just not up to par with anything from Japan, Korea or Germany, even the new one "feels" cheap inside like they went into the parts bin and pulled cruze,…

Whats up with all the hate for convertibles?!?! Jalopnik's LOVE Miatas. MIATAS are CONVERTIBLES. Nothing like having the wind in your hair, sun basking on you and the sound of the engine revving through the open cockpit as you row through the corners. I have never felt more connected to the road when I am in a…

A few ways to take the lambo, dude joke as in Bugatti seagull? Or he actually mistook the Mazda Cosmo pic for a Lambo pic.
