No Warthog (or puma)?
"Hey Simmons, what's the name of that mexican lizard- eats all the goats"
"That'd be the chupacabra sir"
"Hey Griff- Chupathingy. How about that?"
This one was for sale only a few months ago for half the price . Ok, not an M5 by heritage... But, you'll also feel less bad giving it the beans: http://bringatrailer.com/2014/03/15/sup… (it stayed on craigslist for a long time, if I didn't already have a car that was someone else's project, and the ramifications…
I trust mazda engineers. They've really gotten the formula right with miatas each time. If I were to want anything, it'd be release two additional models: the bare bones racer (like the original R. Except this time LSD, 6 speed, soft top, good brakes, and wider than standard wheels). Then, an over the top racer…
honorable mention, because biggest jalop-fan ever:
It helps but still a bit broken. The worst offender is when I search wagon and nearly every listing is an SUV or crossover. Seriously, search wagon and there's pages of escalades and I don't have the time to flag all of them. Or searching 'manual' and people think because you can tip the little shifter thing back and…
Have you driven any other cars that offer as plush of suspension as the regal and yet corners as confidently as it? Because I'm really open to suggestions... my genesis coupe is going to put me into a back brace by 30... I love the comfort mode in that car for cruising around, throw GS mode for highway on ramps and…
Pretty accurate review of how I feel. The OS is unacceptably laggy. I've gone back and forth between the 360 and the one (because GTA V just couldn't make the jump to next gen). The biggest failing of the xbox one is the xbox button on the controller. On the 360, it was instant access to all the fundamental things you…
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the pucker factor for the big rig driver hauling a huge trailer of flammable liquid. Did they have to use the jaws of life to extricate him and the driver seat as one unit?
Does she like mexican built cars more? What if you told her those japanese cars were manufactured in america, would her mind explode? fwiw, I don't know that the fit/civic are built in america, just the number of japanese/korean cars manufactured in america seems to be much greater than the number of american cars…
Great article. Would love to see a similarly themed article for advise on buying a car across state lines. Some of those jalopworthy cars exist in small numbers, and it often means flying out and driving back in your new car. Kind of a one shot deal. Any advice there?
This. Anyone who buys a new FRS/BRZ that isn't madly in love with it is a fool. I own a gencoupe, and its worth $15k... $15k for a turbo 4 cylinder rear wheel drive car with 36k miles and immaculate condition. The interior is worlds better than that generation of mustang/camaro, and much more interesting than the…
I think there's a few of these rolling around now. One of the originals to build the JP Jeep was the Denver Ghostbusters (who first built an ecto mobile). Really cool guys, but they have the number 18 jeep (some nsfw language):
The problem is the old perception of the word geek or nerd. Its really fun when you have real geeks and nerds (the classic D&D, video gamers, and comic bookers) fighting over which is the more derogatory term. I call myself a nerd, because I feel geek carries with it the stigma of pocket protectors and suspenders. But…
I'm glad someone is pointing this out. I totally agree that this is an atrocity in some very nice cars. I've got to say, one of the nicest cars in the show (atleast denver, last weekend) was the Buick Regal Turbo. The entire layout was very well done with great materials and use of lighting (check out those climate…
As everyone else has said, I love the car. I have 2 NA's, a slow one (94R) and a fast one (1.8 supercharged frankenmiata) and they're both amazing in their own regard (agreed on slow models having great motor:chassis balance). My question is, whose thumb was used to model the door handle and was any cold weather…
Why does Jalopnik always insist on changing the question asked between the day the question is asked and the day the answers are posted? The question was what's the sexiest minivan? Not "What's the sexiest minivan you can buy?" That's like saying "Who's the hottest super model" and the next day posting answers of…
I'm fairly certain the entire thing was gutted with a roll cage in place... So you could probably hold 8 people inside, but they should really enjoy playing in jungle gyms...
