$1,200 a month? What shitcan did you buy? I’ve had my 2006 for three years now and I haven’t spent more than $1,200 a year on it, including oil, not including gas.

All this talk of beautiful sounds and not one sound clip other than a guy talking about aero?

Turn on heat. Press A/C button. Press button to direct towards windshield. Done. Warm air from heater, dehumidified from the A/C systerm. Your car is already equipped to do this, no kitty litter needed.

This list is missing the Rhaetian Railway in the Swiss Alps.

17.54 cars? Nice!

I got a rental A3 up to 200kph, and was being passed like I wasn’t even moving. I couldn’t stay in the left lane for more than a few seconds at a time while I was passing, kept having to let much much faster things go by.

This man would make a great life coach.

In the middle of the straight, there’s a runway offshoot there. Could drop in a tight chicane or a hammerhead (or whatever the BBC won’t sue for naming on) to mix it up a bit.

Yea, totally remember that. I think my reaction is more that the track shouldn’t just provide excitement through the risk using it. It would be great to see how the cars compare in high and low speed sections while they’re not flying off the track.

And electricity and a herd of sheep, sure.

Is it just me or is this track very...plain? Where’s the complex elements like chicanes and ‘the hammerhead’ and all that jazz? This is awfully point and shoot, no?

Seems a bit staged that a drone with a camera just happened to be around to capture this...

MINI would sell a hell of a lot more cars if they didn’t price so high. I want the new Gen3 JCW so badly but for $9k less I can have a WRX, or a Focus ST.

So it’s...Team Fortress 2?

Ford claims this will allow the 2WD truck to hit 25 mph on the highway.

Can the store proceeds be used for Jalopnik buying itself out to be an independent site from Univision?

I need that photo for laptop wallpaper. Got a bigger version laying around?

Dear Mini,

Until you realize that if you’re in the middle, there are people in the regular seats, and now each of you are losing leg space.

Holy driveshaft tunnel. Middle seat is unusable for anyone with legs.
