I’ve bought quite a few cars across state lines, and I’ve enjoyed the entire process. My very first car, was a white 1989 BMW 325i I found in some junkyard in Florida. A good friend and I took a train ride from Pittsburgh, PA down to southern Florida to pick this car up. I paid $500 for it. It had about 100k on the…

So nice. I was walking around Edinburgh, Scotland a few nights ago and found this one under a street light. Of course, I stopped everything I was doing to get a quick shot of it.

“So spare the PT Cruiser your disdain. I’m sure there are cars that deserve it more.”

Reminds me of this, actually:

And firing a Maverick!

Whatever it takes to keep the glimmer of hope of a new EVO alive. Nissan hasn’t lost it’s spirit. Hopefully some of that carries over to the “meh” side of Mitsubishi.

Well, the mood-setting music got me thinking. I could just hire a whole Mariachi band for $75 a day. It would only cost me about $27,375 (not including tip) per year. This leaves me with roughly $17,000 to spend on a car. I figured I could get a decent used Miata for about $5k, which leaves me with $12,000 for a…

Oh, I was speaking about those photos around NJ being a 9-10 out of 100. Those places in Scotland are 9-10 out of 10. Even when it’s overcast and raining it’s still a 9-10 out of 10. To put it in another way... I’d rather be around the Isle of Skye when it’s miserable and raining than during a warm pleasant spring day…

Yeah, that whole perpetual traffic jam situation is a major turnoff for me. Even though I’m sure Pittsburgh, PA isn’t as bad, but the daily commutes around the inner rim of the cities anus and all the traffic jams was very discouraging. Roads that were originally designed for a handful of horse and buggies about a…

Oh, I got the point. I do however enjoy injecting my unsolicited opinion from time to time. I don’t care much if people agree with me or not. If you find NJ a cool place to live, then thats great. However, just because you find it a cool place to live doesn’t mean everyone else does or should. For me, the cons will…

Does look pretty boring to me. Then again, I’ve spent a decent part of my life traveling the world exploring and photographing all the grand locations I’ve come across. On a scale of 1 to 100, where 1 would be an actual shit-hole, and 100 would be something like the Dolomites, Lake Bled in Slovenia, Dark Hedges in…

Fine by me. A euro plate will fill up that empty space nicely.

Damnit. Thanks, Jalopnik. I just bought a turn signal delete kit. Of course, I don’t have cocane, hookers, or an M5. But for some reason, I’m rather excited about it arriving in the mail. It’ll look fantastic on my mantle.

“Filed to: SONIC BOOM” Nice.

And this will of course be the chase car to film it (with very slight modification):

“*Cough cough* Subaru WRX STI and Focus RS fighter *cough cough*.”

Yes, but there has to be some measure of balance for it to actually function in our world. Since not everyone is going to want a bubbly-eyed friendly looking autonomous car. Not everyone is going to want that autonomous car to preform precisely according to law, either. So, the anti of that would be...
