This new live-action Street Fighter movie looks really shitty.
This new live-action Street Fighter movie looks really shitty.
My friends and I used to do this in college. All you needed was a snowy day, an empty, preferably unplowed parking lot, and a few trays from the dining hall. We'd drift around at 20 mph, attempting J-turns and 360s, sliding into the occasional snow bank. The only problem we ever had was when a rent-a-cop chased us out…
They should remake it with the proper van in the lead. They can use this for the theme:
I love this movie for the ripe slice of '70s low budget cheese it is, but that van is completely absurd. More to the point, the fact that he dragged it with all that shit in the back and WON.
It's nice to see a Ferrari story that doesn't involve a 458 bursting into flames, a journo getting blacklisted or a dealership treating a customer like dirt. It seems like the only good notices Ferrari gets is for their cars, it's about time their PR department did something other than embarrass themselves.
I see touches of Buick, BMW, Volvo, and maybe a little Lincoln in there. But if any of those companies were trying to create word-of-mouth interest in a "surprising makeover" with a rendering like this, the maker would probably be more evident. They would've put realistic wheels on it too, rather than those magical…
I immediately thought Bimmer too, but they're not really in the "surprising makeover" business. Unless they're talking about a marketing makeover, because they're pretty transparent when it comes to new/updated models. They don't need to sneak around to generate interest in upcoming products. They also wouldn't put…
Gotta give it up to the Wachowski brothers' live-action Speed Racer movie. Aside from the ludicrous, physics-defying "stunts," the cars and environments were almost 100% computer generated. None of the "real" Mach 5s the cast interacted with could run, they were just set dressing. There was no actual driving IN A…
It's a Cayenne. Even in stock form, it would be an all-day crack pipe for anyone who doesn't wish they were Kim Kardashian. But that body kit is just nauseating.
That's a 164, a very different beast. Some Alfisti consider it the car that killed rear-wheel drive Alfas, but I see it as a comfortable cruiser that handles surprisingly well for a nose-heavy repmobile.
All I can say is, if you'd ever driven one, you'd understand.
You can get a clean, unmodified GTV6 for around that same price. Same transaxle, better gearing, stouter engine, sexier sheet metal.
A buddy of mine has a 1988 Milano QV as his daily driver, he has to pour a pint of oil in there about every 100 miles. It's nice to see a 25 year-old car still operating at factory specs.
Having spent a lot of time around transaxle Alfas, I gotta say $4,500 is on the high side for a modified Alfetta. I'm not crazy about the bumpers (would've preferred something closer to the stock EDM pieces, though the chrome's a nice touch), and I absolutely hate the back end. I've seen enough 510s and 1st gen…
If you read the whole article, you'd know that:
I'm with you on the Evo and STI's interiors (the exteriors are nothing to write home about either), but damn are they good to drive. But these days, I've gotta give it up to the ST. The only thing it's lacking is AWD, but I bet it's still a blast to drive in the snow.
So is a lowered hatchback with 250+ horsepower and a manual transmission, like the Polestar. Or any sporty car, considering 95% of city driving is done at speeds under 35 mph.
You make an excellent point, but the C30, even in R-Design trim, isn't really what you'd call a "hot hatch." Hot hatchbacks are about more than horsepower numbers, they're about the perfect combination of driving experience and day-to-day practicality. The T5 engine's got a bit more grunt than a Civic Si (which is…
For a Subaru fan like Connor, this must've been a mind-blowing sight.
This is one of those stories that's as heartbreaking as it is heartwarming. Heartbreaking because one of our own (and Connor was truly one of us) was taken at such an early age, heartwarming because of the way communities like ours can put everything aside to make one little kid's dreams come true, even if only for a…
