Are you fucking kidding me?

Moore’s Law of hot rodding/car mods...

Of course you would...

Now playing

The Evolution by Escort has a similar wing as well and it appears to have taken the top time for the event!

Excessive wing/spoilers on street car: bad

He’s got a wing. Now he needs a prayer.

If I were a huge RX-7 fanboy I would totally wankel to this.

At first I wanted to change the photo on this blog but then I realized it’s a guy with a no-face helmet absolutely wringing the hell out of an old Civic and I saw that it was Good

This one is easy. Cars are lasting longer, and more expensive to buy, so people buy less often. Unless you absolutely have to have the newest safety features, a 10 year old car is going to have the same features as a brand new car.

Based on people I’ve known, I’d say the ultimate dad car is some generic, old, beat-up, barely-running rustbucket. The money that they could have put toward a nicer car instead went to nice things for the family, at least until they knew how big the family was going to be and had a good amount of money stashed away

To be clear, what happened is that the state took over Flint’s services because they could not pay for them themselves. The state, run by then governor Rick Snyder (R) purely to try and break the Detroit water utilities union (aka your fellow water treatment operators) decided to switch from Detroit Water and Sewage to

The water met all federal standards until the moment it entered the customer’s home. Unfortunately lead sampling is required by the self same federal government at the customer’s kitchen sink tap after the water stands over night, a so called “first draw” sample. All the lead came from the customer’s plumbing and not

It’s occurred to none of the geniuses that the average age of a water system employee is pushing 55, the pay is nowhere near commensurate for the liabilities and quite simply the more the scream about criminal charges, the less anyone with any experience running water treatment systems will come within 100 miles of

The issue is that there’s an inherent tradeoff between thickness and durability. Even if Corning is able to perfect its foldable glass (they’re apparently not that far away from it), not only do you have to protect the front, you’ve also got to hold the display in some kind of rigid frame that won’t bend or warp, and

the cost to certify over 123 sales... That probably means they’re losing hundreds to thousands on each one thus far.  Hope they sell enough to make it worth it or G70 gen 2 is going to be auto only.

BMW has been one of the last holdouts offering manual transmissions on their cars, and they didn’t only put them in base models. You can get a 2019 M6 Gran Coupe with a manual. You could get F10 V8 5 series with manual. While it sucks to see the new 3 series lose the manual, Mercedes and Audi have given it up

Jalopnik commenters: “If automakers would just offer more manuals, they’d see that people are willing to buy these cars!”

“We knew the take rate for the manuals, even with the other performance upgrades that come in the 2.0T Sport (manual) package, wouldn’t be that great, but we wanted to be able to offer it to show how much we appreciate the enthusiasts in the market that prefer manuals,”

It is my Civic duty to inform you that the GTI has this Honda Beat Insight-out in every category. Now that you have some Clarity, SI? - You should just Pilot the new base model GTI at your own Accord and realize that your money is spent better elsewhere. Around the Si’s price, the hatchbacks are much better to drive

For years now, CarMax has been treating both buyers and sellers like children. Sale prices too high, but non-negotiable. Buying prices too low, and also never budge on those.
