Perhaps the headline should read Blackest Weekend, as these accidents occured on different days.

@Potatosw✭tter: There was nothing right wing about the Nazis until after the war. They were socialists, and they had plenty of friends in the American left. Name a single policy of the nazis that was even centerist, let alone conservative. They were leftists, and they did as leftists always do when they have complete…
@DennyCraneDennyCraneDennyCrane: What difference between national socialism and socialism? There certainly wasn't any difference between American progressives prior to World War II and German National Socialists.
@abgwin: So what did you mean by your opening post? It is as if you have a much smarter and more intuitive subconscious that hijacked your keyboard.
@Sam: Black is the best color for every car that is so ugly its lines need to be hidden.
@abgwin: Seems silly of you in light of this being a thread about Whitacre's decision to name himself permanent CEO of GM. The court decision may have been a legacy of Bush, but the decision of Obama's lacky at GM to position himself to exploit it in the midterms and 2012 wasn't made by anyone who likes the…
@abgwin: Which decision? Obama personally went to Bush while Bush was still in office and made a deal in exchange for Bush saving GM. Bush wouldn't save GM for the sake of it and made Obama promise to reverse the position Obama ran on in regards to a free trade agreement with Colombia, where they have the decency to…
This E class is the worst looking Mercedes ever, and yes I'm including the McLaren SLR.
I can't help but to notice that most of the posts against Mazda's credentials for this accolade contain factual errors, so Mazda is looking pretty good for it.
@abgwin: And now Obama can use GM as a laundry to wash our tax dollars for his re-election campaign!
@laxmax613: I'm sure 1984 looked real far in the future in 1948. Heart click to you sir.
@Tyson: A friend of mine had one in high school too. With a 403, it was reasonably fast for a beater in the mid '80s. More telling was that it had already been repainted due to paint deterioration, in spite of having been a parental hand me down and only being about 8 years old. Like most of the cars we had, I have…
Did it set a lap time?
@Old Grimey- The Original Automotive Sadomasochist!: There are people who can actually do things and people who rely on the government to control every aspect of their existence.
@cesariojpn: So cops only serving as revenue collectors isn't just a US problem.
@f86sabre: I've stared down guns, driven off a cliff, been jumped by gangs, ridden a tobaggan past concrete towers at 55 mph, sailed in hurricane force winds, and raced motorcycles on unfamiliar roads, but probably the most courageous thing I've done is leaving the jetway in a plane that is a British and French joint…
Reading this article on Jalopnik, I was amazed by its quality. We need more from this author.
@Roberto Grijalva: That's awsome. If you're not in a state that emissions tests 30 years old cars, you can probably 'simplify' the intake and exhaust and end up with a pretty potent engine. A four speed would have been nice, but too much aggression only leads to mailing your wire hubcaps into people's front yards in…
@Roberto Grijalva: Great find Roberto! Which engine does yours have? A few early ones got Cologne V6s that weren't too horrible. At the time, it seemed like every Ford advertising dollar was spent promoting the Turbo Mustang Cobra 2.3. By the time I got to highschool in 1984, there weren't any early turbo Fox Mustangs…
