Royal Tenenbaums is also fun.

Whenever I see a Bentayga, it conjures up this mental image of a car stylist looking at his watch, going “what? 6 p.m. already? Oh well, looks o.k.” and leaving.

Even the EB112 and 218 looked better than that.

My Opel is supposedly less premium than that Mini. It has the same arrangement (power button in the volume control knob), and the symbol is always right-side-up.

If the kids complain about rear legroom in a QX50, they are going to kick the front seat back rests with a vengeance in a CLA or Giulia.

There used to be an annual event in the village where I grew up. Of course, that was when there would reliably be snow in winter.

“majoritively”? Look me in the eye and tell me you didn’t make that up on the spot.

I seem to recall that the “hardtop-only” option was exclusive to the U.S. market. Might be wrong, though.

My uncle had one of those when I was a kid (in yellow, natch). I was fascinated by the way water would spew out around the headlights when he hosed the wheel arches.

Don’t forget Stuntman Mike’s Charger in Death Proof.

Because I’m GenX and wouldn’t be seen dead in one?
