Or you know, they could just build a Cayman to GTE spec. That has an NA flat six that is already in the right place. But Porsche are far to good at marketing to ever consider doing something that sensible.

If someone gets me a hood sized wrap of the periodic table I will absolutely install it on my Element. It’s a black one so coordinate appropriately.

Hal Needham and Burt Reynolds probably have more to do with my love of cars than anyone. Smokey and the Bandit and Cannonball Run 1&2 were viewed at every opportunity in my youth. I had subscriptions to Hot Rod and Car & Driver by middle school. I also grew up in the age of The Fast and The Furious and to some extent…

What Mazda really is saying is that they are effectively the last small independent car brand in Japan and they actually need to be profitable to continue to exist. The sad side effect of this is we don't get any MazdaSpeed stuff right now. But we have an awesome new Miata. And the whole lineup is good to perfect now.…

The issue with soccer in the US has been and likely will always be American football. Our best athletes play football because it is simply the most popular sport. You can lump basketball or baseball in to a lesser extent. Even hockey is more popular here. Imagine a world where Calvin Johnson or Demarco Murray grew up…

As a Honda Element owner I am OFFENDED. The Honda Element is the best tiny cube truck that Honda ever built Goddammit! Otherwise I 100% agree with everything said above. Also, I'm probably wrong about the Element.

For a small fee even pre AI (pre 1977) Nikon lenses can be modified to fit on modern Nikon DSLRs. The old glass is a bargain for the optical quality if you’re comfortable with manual focus and aperture. When I shot on my D80 and later D7000 I often used old manual lenses. I understand the love for old heavy metal…

Buggy whip manufacturer folds due to evil horse-less carriage makers.

Don't ever stop being the champion of the greatest 6 cylinder engine ever made Bob. Don't ever stop.

If this is true, New Old Top Gear just got REALLY interesting. Sabine is a legend and Chris Harris is fucking Chris Harris.

Volkswagen. Sorry about your window regulators, bro.

I had one of those giant 12 inch pink acrylic bubble shifters on my Mustang for a bit. I got it to make myself laugh. It succeeded. But it’s too big and a pain in the ass to drive with. I regret not getting a somewhat sensibly sized version which was also available. It’s such a stupid thing in a mullet-mobile and I…

Some buyers guides should just be the word “Nope” and this is one of them. If you want a large, fast, luxurious sedan there are half a dozen better choices with better performance and possibly even something resembling reliability. Now I’ll go back to sipping my bottle of Haterade.

What?!?! How is there no March Super Turbo Zuckerberg? What is this madness? DISSAPOINTED!

I attribute my personal automotive obsession to 4 films scene at a young age. Cannonball Run 1&2 and Smokey and the Bandit 1&2. Hal Needham and Burt Reynolds left quite an impression on me as a young lad. So show those movies to your kids. Also The Sheik is maybe the most positive portrayal of an overtly Muslim…

This is good ass Torchlopnik

This is good ass Torchlopnik.

So a military blimp crashed here today. How’s everyone else’s day been?

Did you even read it? Did you even bother to read a few hundred words saying while the rider broke the law and may in fact be an idiot, it doesn’t excuse the fact that the driver of the vehicle nearly killed 2 people? The rider is a moron and for better or worse the penalty for being a moron isn’t death. Should I be…

Why are we even pretending this is coming to the US? We never get anything fun and cheap. I’m looking at you Honda S660.
