Sorry to peak in here from Jalopnik, but I have to say my wife is beyond this whole sexism thing. Whenever I go to buy a car or make any major purchase, I bring her. She is a real sweetheart, but when it comes to negotiating deals, she can be the nastiest, most aggressive person I know. She's just way better at it

revving the piss out of a high compression engine

Ok, so this guy is kind of a self-centered, juvenile, narcissistic douche who seems to think BMWs are rare exotics, but I watched every one of those videos, and honestly he didn't really do anything wrong. He revved the engines, and a few times kissed the red line, but this article makes it sound he literally abused

It's almost like they're trolling.

And that my friends in an excellent example of what we call "lift-throttle oversteer".

Wow, what the hell man? Maybe it was your age? When I bought my brand-new Camaro SS a few years back, I was only paying an additional $55/month to my existing policy, and that was with a less than perfect driving record. Of course, I was far older than 19 at the time.

It depends on the car. Some have enough low-end torque and are geared in such a way that you don't really need to shift a whole lot in stop-and-go traffic. It's murder in my Accord 5-speed, as the engine torque builds so narrowly; therefore you must shift between 1st and 2nd a whole lot. In my Tercel 4-speed, it seems

I don't know why I've never heard this...but I'm suddenly a fan.

Crack pipe. GM needs an affordable RWD V8 bruiser sedan in the $35k range — not this. This was supposed to have started off as a civilian Caprice PPV, but now it looks like it's moved up a class or two.

Makes me wonder why Ford doesn't use "Diamond Fire Technology" in all their cars!

I love Nova clones! Even though this isn't really a Nova clone and more of a chop-shop special, I think this is actually a NP given the internals, but I'd rather see vintage wheels and tires on that bad boy.

You can call that Lancia anything you want, but you can't call it sexy.

No sir, I mean in the Lone Wolf McQuade clip. That is definitely Robert Beltran.

Wow, is that Chakotay?

I applaud Aston Martin for being one of the last companies to make an exotic with a shove-it-yourself transmission and a glorious V-12. If I was in the market for an exotic, I would drive right past the Ferrari, Lambo, and Porsche dealerships and plop my ill-earned, laundered cash into the willing hands of a

Sure, but I could see US lawmakers already licking their chops at this one. Panic stopping already causes enough accidents (I've been in one myself). If this was used too freely or not in the right way, it could frighten drivers.

No.

I always encounter the slimiest salesmen (yes, they are 99% men) at lower-end dealers like Chevy, Ford, Honda, etc. They literally will not let you leave the dealership and hound you with relentless calls and emails if you do leave. I was once just looking at a Focus and the salesman wrote me up a freaking bill of sale

This is the most selfish thing I have ever seen.
