The Boxster Spyder is not me attempting to say, “Boxster is a convertible” all fancy-like. It’s a limited run version of the Boxster. For the Type 981, it got the 3.8L from the Carrera S and the 911 GT3's cooling system (like a Cayman GT4), Carrera S brakes, wheel hubs and EPAS out of the 911 Turbo, 918 Spyder seats,…

This. Skinner is an absolute madman behind the wheel.

David,

Unlike the Tesla Model S, the Mission E can actually get around the ‘Ring without heat-soaking its battery pack.

Calling it now. It’ll be a FWD crossover.

So much of an opportunity that Ford won’t sell the new Fiesta in the US.

Jesus, where do I begin....

Toyota’s current V6 — the 2GR — is also overengineered, particularly the FSE and FXE variants. It’s why Lotus used it for the Exige and Evora, and why those Toyota Avalon Hybrid taxis you see in Manhattan merely do a quick rebuild after about 400,000 miles of abuse to send the car right back out for another 400K…

... Trader Joe’s prices keep creeping up. Thank goodness for ALDI...

Later ones don’t have the issue. If you get a ‘97 or later, they’re bulletproof and they have OBD-II ports for easier diagnostics.

I bet you’re all wondering why I’ve gathered you all here today.

This video absolutely requires this background music (game’s car was a Honda City):

Here’s a rare 959 sighting I once made: One with the engine out.

I wonder if this is an attempt to ... how to say this ... make the Cullinan appear more premium by disassociation.

I like Miatas. I had one for 9 years. They are very good ... for what they cost.

Nah, it’s just like Corvette owners. “It’s rare, I assure you.”

Half a million Mustangs built is one thing, survivors is a different thing. There were fewer 964s produced, but there are FAR more with bodies in good enough shape for non-prohibitive restorations.
