Nothing wrong with roborace that driving upside down, up walls, and jumps can’t fix.

I like the thinking, but the the design choices are BORING.

I applaud Tesla for going grille-less, but I think they could’ve done more with the surfacing to define more character without relying on a tacked-on grille graphic.

Loving something like is like loving a celebrity - you do it because it makes you feel special - part of exclusive circle, not because the experience is actually meaningful.

Doesn’t change the fact that the MP4 is still an anodyne experience. As in a Dyson-is-special-but-its-still-a-vacuum cleaner sort of experience.

I have to defend Enthusiast Auto on this one, as much as I hate to.

I bought an E91 from them, and the price was hella reasonable! Especially considering the amount of pre-work they put into their cars to ensure it’s a true no-surprises car.

“One Ford” pretty much saved that company, and has given us 200hp Fiestas, a new GT that makes Ferrari’s “styling” look like fancy window dressing, a global sedan that not only looks like an Aston but is actually nice to drive/own. And of course the best-selling truck in these United States.

One more reason to not shop at big-box stores?

Oil changes; after all the internetting we’re still not aware of the importance (and variability from make to make) about them.

So if Jalopnik would like to hire a designer that writes in hip-but-not-too-hip English to I don’t know, talk about car design instead of how things feel HOLLER AT ME.

My dad put black wheels on his Sienna. This was 6 months before buying a new Sienna.

I hope everyone realizes HOW LITTLE 800 hours of design work really is! I’ve worked (as a professional industrial designer) on many far less demanding projects with similar hours spent on design.

I reread this article and am still missing the part that you chose not to go to the BMW independent.

This is gorgeous!

• Declining car sales in a truck-crazy marketplace. Luxury brands generally rely more on car sales than trucks. Luxury automakers are adding truck production, but not fast enough to keep up.

I’ve read all the reports, followed the tests, and seen the numbers...
