I cannot even watch this video. Huge props to Akira Nakai-san. If that’s your thing then great. He is an artist (although I wouldn’t do it). I couldn’t get through the video though. I’m so tired of watching young 20-something pricks who think “they’re all that.” How about a REAL story and not some rich-prick…

I’ve read all the books. Actually, I really like the series as well. Not just because of the potential, but it’s actually really well done. I’m looking forward to season 2.

After the third episode I gave up. Perhaps I’ll take one last look. Frankly, I’m not impressed with “The Grand Tour” so far.

Agreed. Can we please talk about cars and not politics? I come here to see and read about cool car stuff, not politically motivated authors still pissed about the election.

“New Lexus LS: Still looks like it ran straight in to a tree.” There, fixed it for you. My dear Lord the new Lexi (plural?) look horrific in the front.

Is it me, or is the Grand Tour just not right? I cannot quite put my finger on it, but it’s not really good. Clarkson’s pants falling off while getting our the chopper during episode two was just plain stupid. I turned it off. I was struggling to really like it anyway, and that was enough to put me over the edge. …

Not going to be fooled again. Didn’t see the last two. Won’t go see this one. Simply not worth my time.

My Uncle has one of these with almost 400k miles on it now. It’s still DAMN fast!

The DP cars were SO ugly I could barely watch the series before. I’ll have to give the series another look if the cars look this fantastic!

Grateful you’re recovering Matt Mingay. Glad you’re still with us. I look forward to seeing more of you and your driving soon!

I have a 1986 Porsche 911 I bought a long time ago before the bubble (so I’m not rich, FYI). The sucky part is that EVERYTHING else, in terms of steering feel, absolutely SUCKS compared to my ‘86 911. Steering feel is the heart and soul of a car. It’s the most intimate connection we can have with a car. The…

Easy answer: my 17 year old Son never (and I mean NEVER) returning a tool to it’s proper place. EVERY job now starts with one hour of searching the house and his room for tools. It’s a part of the preparation I figure.

It was all Whistler, BC. I’ve ridden there many times. The last trail was Crabapple Hits, pro only line. I’ve been riding MTBs for at least 25 years now, all over the world, and Whistler is, by far, the best.

Got an ‘86 911 16 years ago (last of the 915 trannys). I’ve watched prices go up, I’ve been offered cash on the spot by several. Every time I park it there’s a note left on it with “Want to sell? Call...” No, it’s not the fastest thing on the road, but it’s still quick. She’s got 110k miles on it and I just…

New 2012 VW TDI Sportwagon. Enough said.

Great article! Thank you.

Add to title: (by installing small, coal-burning power generators in each home). If that doesn’t catch your fancy, then: (by installing small, nuclear power generators in each home). I’ve got a soon-to-be-bought-back TDI and I’m not happy.

I saw the couple version at Canepa Cars-n-Coffee. It’s absolutely MASSIVE! I could barely fit in to the parking slot. I would have hated to drive it on small, twisty mountain roads. There’s just no room to play. It also wasn’t pretty. Well, maybe it’s cool looking, but I just got the feeling that, in 15 years, it’ll…

I have a 2012 TDI Sportwagon, fully loaded,k, bought new. Do the VIN thing in the VW web site. I’m getting much less than the tables indicate, FYI. I think the tables are crap-tastic. Do not be optimistic. At this point we’re still taking the buy back, but we’re very much NOT happy. Good bye VW.

Oh man, I got one! I was 17 years old. I was tired of driving around the Ford Pinto (my first car). Saved up $2k and finally found the MGB GT I was looking for, in British Racing Green even! Test drive proved it was indeed perfection on wheels (hey, I was 17). I told the guy I wanted it and that I’d be back in 15…
