No, it really isn’t. And the people suffering don’t read Jalopnik.

I didn’t realize only one race was susceptible to being addicted to crack. Guess I can go give it a shot now without fear.

Very rare, and they cost almost DOUBLE the price of an E class sedan, which is a little bizarre.  This one was over $80,000 new.

Here’s the thing:  just because something is offensive to someone doesn’t mean its offensive.  Sometimes it just means that person (or group of people) are complete fucking idiots.

Future classic. This one needs a little work but nothing difficult.

you know you can start ignoring someone when they start bashing the Reagan admin like that.  lmao.

At the end of season 2 NBC stated that they were proud of the show and, despite poor viewership, fully supported it.

Ferrari, Porsche and McLaren lost the plot years ago. This tends to happen when the companies’ original driving forces/founders pass away.  God bless Gordon Murray for continuing to carry the torch for the highest level of driving purity.

If you think $1000 is expensive, in general, for a bike...you’re gonna be sorely disappointed haha.

If he was unknown to someone at that time it was their own fault. Casino Royale had already been out for a while and Mikkelsen was fantastic in that masterpiece.

When the show originally aired, I had a hard time seeing Mads as Lector (always Hopkins in my head). but after the first season that perception flipped. Mads is/was perfect.

Nowhere near scary amounts, but every storm these days just has to be “so so terrible!”

I drove a manual when I lived in NYC. It’s a sacrifice I was happy to make. I’d do the same in Atlanta (though I’d never make the mistake of moving there, doesn’t fit with my preferences).

My team allegiances in F1 are always weird but traditionally I’ve been a Ferrari fan. I guess at this point I’ll start rooting for McLaren (everyone likes a comeback story) and will maybe come back to Ferrari in 2 years...

Obviously I can’t do a direct comparison and view both in person, however there is a 944 here in the Raleigh area that is a showstopper. It’s a 944 Turbo that was restored by Rhodes Scholars and is absolutely stunning (as it should because it has almost $200k in it).

Ultimately yes that is true. I always lean towards the less mainstream choices in the car world. Guess my point was that Boxster TCOO isn’t “as bad” as some people assume.

An expensive Mercedes Benz purchase isn’t practical, in any form.

(show)

Old air cooled porsche engine rebuilds are ridiculously expensive.  But that has nothing to do with modern water cooled porsche motors.  (other than the fact that the engine says “porsche” on it).

So what work did your Miata need? Genuinely curious, because as the owner of a Cayman S for 6 years and several track events a year, I haven’t had any major maint issues. So I don’t think it’s fair for you to assume a Porsche would require a bunch of work?
