Pimpin' ass interior colors and materials. I'd love to be able to check the box for a money green Cadillac CTS or a red velour Grand Cherokee. We have nice interiors nowadays but they're based in European minimalism. You can get black, gray, brown trimmed in brown wood plastic, piano black plastic or aluminum.

I wish every front engined V8 had shaker hood

I could not agree with this more! Or at least, more nifty interior options.

The hardtop coupe design. no pillar in between the front and rear side glass. Just pure, side window down, awesomeness.

Hand crank starters. Inconvenient? Yes, but hear me out. First, would help everyone get some exercise since the news always tells us we are fat and out of shape.

red velour interiors...so sex

Do hidden gas tank fillers count as a feature?

Aw, man. I love heated seats.

I'm still alright with 360.

Can we have a Jalopnik insider Bazzaro agreement? You guys put out articles that berate our favorite cars and tell the public why they suck, why you shouldn't buy one, and why you'll die if you look at them.

Ah, who axed you?

Suzuki Swift

Any old beater, because who really cares? Hell, vomit might improve the smell of god knows what else has stained the seats.

A train car

The Russian ruble is collapsing, crude oil prices are dropping, hackers can cancel the release of a movie with some vague threats, the recession continues.
