I'm going to play Devil's advocate here. Don't kill me for this, but I'd like to raise a few points (none of which mean that I fully back this guy's suit):

I was lased once over Titusville, FL while with a student of mine en route to Daytona Beach at night. I reported it to ATC, but have no idea if they caught the jackass who did it. It hurt like hell, and my night vision was gone for a good 10-15 mins - much worse than a student accidentally turning on a white light int…

Fastest cab ride. Ever.

He was a lot shorter than I expected. He must have been sitting on a phone book or something when they shot that first commercial.

fuck off mr literal

Oh yeah, Porsche also totally accidentally (or purposely) included Turbo footage in their original targa reveal. You can clearly see what appears to be the extra vent included on all Turbo models in their teaser video at several points.

These seats. This is the kind of thing I would pay S-Class money for. Not new tech or magic suspension, I want substance and style.

As completely autonomous driving becomes commonplace, a number of major changes will come to pass.

Look, I don't disagree with you about the virtues of a well designed and efficient mass transportation system, but the reality is that there are somewhere in the neighborhood of 250 million passenger vehicles in the U.S., with near as many in China, and about one billion worldwide (as of 2011/2012). You can't discuss…

If it means that the streetcar I ride ten times a week (not to mention all the vehicles I risk getting flattened by just by crossing the street) is piloted by a tireless automaton watching 70 data points at once to avoid collisions, rather than by a bitter union lifer sneaking looks at his text messages, I'm all for…

This would give me an independence I haven't had in years, really ever.

Yes, but are the Japanese capable of making a car that has been assembled with the passion of drunken Italians on a Friday afternoon in July?

I've learned to stop getting worked up about these. Every change comes in phases -

Welcome to Jalopnik, where nobody forces you to like something but the comment section is ALWAYS full of complaints.

Normally I bemoan little car-based crossovers (just give me a damn wagon with less ride height and weight that does the same job!) but this latest breed of small, sporty, slightly-lifted hatchbackey things (Macan, BMW X1, Mercedes GLA, Audi Q3) are blurring the lines between crossover and wagon so much that I'm not…

Still, it's very unlikely Osterloh's stances can make much of an impact on VW investing more in U.S. production.

I wish there was a "turd" option next to the star, because this post is shit.

Ok bye

Is this for real? Honestly lol

Ugh, ok, PSA time.
