I've got a CVT Subaru. I do think there's a learning curve to getting used to how it feels because it gives such different cues compared to a geared automatic or manual transmission. Not having the familiar refrain of the engine rpms climbing towards the redline then dropping at each gear change is a little…

Remember the US RQ-170 drone that went down in Iran in 2011?

Who would have thought a car could make anything commissioned by Will.I.Am look good?

I'd love to graft everything forward of the A-pillar to my Outback. That's what the front should have looked like.

I have a particular affection for the MGB/GT. What fine looking car!

Pontiac Solstice started out as a concept ca. 2002, brought to production in 2004. It was a pretty good looking car I always thought.

If you assume the medallion can be sold at a later date for even more money, it's not that much of an issue. Say you buy a couple as an investment, lease them to someone else, then sell in 5 years for 140% of your purchase price? You have cash flow during the time you own them and pocket a nice return when it's time…

A 20 year old used car from Michigan is automatically CP, because rust. There may be exceptions to this rule, but we have to assume the accused guilty until proven innocent. The underhood photos are very incriminating in this particular case.

Yep. It gives the electric E-brake a workout when it's on. Two stupid things working in concert to drive you nuts. Thankfully there's an off switch for the hill holder.

I have it on my Subaru, and it's turned off 100% of the time. If I'm concerned about rolling backwards or forwards with my automatic transmission car, I simply two-foot it.

Subaru's "hill-holder".

There is no such thing as "good techno".

One thing I've learned from watching Russian dashcams is there are no good radio stations in Russia.

This is what happens when you let an industrial designer draw boats. Just because you are qualified to draw a handle for the latest Schick razor does not mean you have the skills or knowledge to draw a good boat.

If the designer had ever spent any time on planing powerboat in any seas, he'd know that the worst place…

As long as the wheel well rust doesn't extend to everywhere rust, NP. Trust but verify.

Is a 425 HP front wheel drive car even drivable? It's a serious question. Who among you has driven such a thing and can honestly say a stupidly powerful FWD car makes any sense at all?

That's why the original liner notes for early REM albums listed Michael Stipe as 'lead vocal instrument'. He took mumbling to a new level.

The song was inspired when disgraced CBS anchorman Dan Rather claimed to have been briefly kidnapped in NYC by a wierdo who kept cryptically repeating "what's the frequency…

When 18 year old me ran his 1971 240Z under a school bus and it caught fire, the fire wasn't that big a deal. By the time it got going good, I was out of the car and on my way to receive medical attention. It didn't make the headlines either. I just don't see this as a that big a deal. Cars catch fire sometimes. No…

I'm solidly on the fence with this one. Want so bad because it's a big-ass Ford wagon, but the price is at least a kilobuck too high. I have to give a reluctant CP, as much as it pains me to do so.

Cool, but I'd probably knock that splitter off in about an hour!
