Due to its poor design, trucks were banned from this bridge not even two years after it opened. That pretty much tells you all you need to know about this turd.

In a city filled with bad bridges, being named the "most troubled" is quite an impressive feat. Hopefully its replacement comes soon, if it ever comes at all.
The front wing is mega-important and whatever they show on the launch cars I can promise you will not be what they show up in Melbourne with. Not that all those fences will or won't be there, but don't look closely or get too attached.
The brakes are good. They aren't super grabby, but suit the car's sporting intentions. They stop just fine. What else can I say? Go, brakes!
I think we all need to propagate , "123456969" a little more. That needs to be on the list, it's a pretty intelligent variation of the listed, if I do say so myself.
Many of them are very good; more of them are terrible. I have no problem whatsoever with shit being given away for free – that's the essential brilliance of shit, it can be free – but when it dresses itself up as content and deepens the fragmentation and confusion in the space, and starves the good content of revenue…
Will a conventional website ever be able to serve longer-form content in a way that replicates your favourite magazine? I don't believe it will. Its best chance was through the tablet, but that can now be called a failure and the whole concept of people ditching paper for pixels seems to have ground to a halt. Sales…
Then there was the iPad revolution and Apps and inApp marketing and magazine editors poncing around auto shows talking of media empires displaying some beautiful interactive magazines on their tablets. All of which happened to be a 1GB memory cluster-fuck and, for most mortals, impossible to buy. And not ideal for…
I could be wrong, but I do believe CH gets paid by Gawker for his weekly content here... in some form or another. I do believe that is why he has started writing it for us.
That is a stunning photo. I still watch the race every year and love it, but one of the things I really miss since they left Africa is the amazing scenery. It's just not quite the same in South America, not to knock it, but it's just not.
I have no idea what fair market value is for one of these, but I've wanted one of these for a long time and if I had the $60k large I'm not sure that I hesitate much to drop it on this thing. I mean it's Noble designed car and it has stood the test of time in terms of design and performance. I want. I want. I want.
The FIA is not screwing Honda. Honda is in the EXACT SAME place all manufactures were 1 year ago when their engines were new and not homologated. If the FIA let Honda wait until the end of the year then there are large, important parts of the engine that the other 3 manufactures had to freeze at the same date last…
I got this as a wedding gift, it's NOT the keg-o-rator you want, I've spent as much money getting it to function properly than the giver spent on it. Too many non-standard parts, and it's smaller than other full sized keg-o-raters which means that with a 5lb co2 tank and a 1/2 barrel you will have trouble fitting…
This was a cool list, but it seems to be much more a list of very limited numbers, rare cars and not obscure cars.
I agree, there seems to be a lot of confusion between the words "obscure" and "rare."
I didn't notice this mentioned so here goes: BMW Nazca C2. (and yes I only know of this car because it was in Need For Speed II SE.)
If it's been on (real) Top Gear, then it's not obscure (enough).
It's NOT a place any JALOP cars come from, no need to fix.
So I drive a Fiat Abarth and the quiz says it's 6-10% Jalop. Now I know it's no vintage 60's brown, diesel powered rotary, wagon, 3-door shooting brake roadster, with a fully manual, pre-selector automatic, but I feel like that is still a pretty low number for it. Maybe it's because mine doesn't have any "Abarth" side…
