I’m thinking this jackass is one of those mofos that invaded the Capitol last Wednesday.  does anyone have his name and picture?

That pansy assclown has the unreasonable concocted, entitled rage of the traitor cultists. A Legacy like that saved my life and if I was looking for a second car, I’d take that (in Majestic blue) over any other car that I didn’t design myself. I’m not a broke-ass sad fuck, so that price that’s less than what a…

Aaron shared the “hate mail” in a public post on Radwood, and knowing that this ended up in the Subaru museum makes the emails so much funnier to read:

Good to see that Subaru is pro-active on protecting its Legacy. I wish they would take the Liberty to do that here in Australia where they have Imprezzed everyone from the Brats of the Outback to the Justy Brumbies and Foresters that Crosstrek the Ascents.

Why would someone waste their time writing hate mail over something as innocuous as the asking price of a car? It wasn’t even that unreasonable given how clean it is. As a part of my local Renault 4 community I see ads for fantastically overpriced Quatrelles every single day, and all the energy I’m capable of spending…

I love how a girlfriend’s highly specific and unprompted statement, corroborated by a lawyer who also represented the alleged bomb builder, that the guy was building bombs in an identified location is seen as insufficient for a warrant to search said location, but...

I designed the exhaust system on this car!  Still looks good!

It’s probably not a healthy way to spend my time.

Former Saturn master tech here, Spring Hill factory trained ‘96.
The variable displacement compressor is a really neat and clever engineering feat. A few of them gave us fits under warranty back in 1996 when they stuck at minimum displacement and wouldn’t cool down the brand new cars they were in. More info about that…

If only I did literally anything with the same zeal of David Tracy investigating the origins of random economy cars.

This is excellent Jalop-content, thank you! But you buried the lede; there was a company called “Diesel Kiki”?! What a great name.

David great article, thorough as always. Next time though....

These are the sorts of stories that I know many of us come to Jalopnik for. You don’t find many of these type of stories anywhere else. But they are almost a weekly thing here.

I grew up in Decatur and can confirm that the Zexel wind tunnel was a huge deal when they built it in 1992. School field trips to the facility were commonplace and was a pretty impressive sight to behold. Being only 10 years old, the place seemed absolutely enormous.

Seriously though...something like this is a “once in a lifetime” sort of find. The odds of finding a Saturn SL2 that has been this well preserved (or a running SL2 for that matter) will never happen again. I hope someone preserves this vehicle as a reminder of GM’s Saturn experiment. 

I like this headline a lot better than “Woman Who Would Have Cured COVID Left STEM Because Parents Told Her She’d Never Get a Man in that Lab Coat”.

As you mentioned, they refused to air it on MSNBC, so I switched to CNN and... wheeeeew boy...someone’s becoming (more) unhinged.

Maybe you’ll sway him just enough not to bother to vote, and that’s something.

I have a neighbor who’s not a total Trump supporter....more of a “But is Biden really better?” kinda guy. An argument that seems to make him ponder more has been “You see what’s happening here with rising covid cases. You hear what Trump is saying about the pandemic out on the campaign trail. Does it add up? Who do…

Ironic, given that Wallace was just trying to drive a race car and some jackass decided to not stick to sports by putting a noose in his garage.
