oh man, I love that a writer for our favorite little car blog just called journalistic bullshit and schooled the mighty WSJ... Nice job torch!

no clutch pedal? It's an automatic. Whether or not you can otherwise affect a gear change or if there's an automated clutch mechanism doesn't matter. If 85% of the american population can't drive your car- it's a manual

appropriate this news breaks on national donut day. Even though it appears he had nothing to do with the ban go ahead and <insert Chris Christie fat joke here>

oh the backfires...

flappy-paddle-gearbox... What kind?

that paint job is tasteless enough for the sultan of

i like the haggle. I like to shoot a preposterously low offer just to watch the reaction on the salesman's face. Play hardball. Remind them that there are a hundred other dealers selling lots of other makes and they should feel LUCKY that you are even gracing them with your presence. They will act tough until you head…

I'm less excited/impressed by this as the 1.0 ecoboost- let me explain. Turbos were always part of the sports car scene, and when they're used to make fast cars even faster it's really not that exciting.

unfortunately I think hot hatches are too expensive for US buyers, relative to what you really get. For $30k I'd have a hard time justifying a trumped up subcompact over a CLA/wrx/Mustang or even a truck. Plus who aside from jalops/people who watch top gear have ever heard of Skoda or know much about Renault?

ha! Sorry Audi but electric turbos have been for sale for years on eBay... I'm sorry for the idiots that fall for this when you can just buy one for like $30 and slap it behind your air filter for instant power gains.

so does this mean that somewhere out there are three convertible vw busses?

all I heard was blah blah blah kit car and became disinterested after that.

serpentine snuff film right there. I'm no Albert Schweitzer... Fuck snakes

totally real. Look at the approach- that's 90mph easy. I believe a lightweight truck with a leadfoot at the wheel could make that dune

yeah the peach fuzz completes the trailer park boys look. That kid is the richest poor white trash out there.

i think it's perfectly natural for people to promote the cars they like. I don't see anything wrong with it. It's a better endeavor than bitching about how nobody makes a brown turbo diesel stick shift shooting brake...

that really sucks. i think the number one thing new riders do to kill themselves is overcook turns and go waaay to wide. it's not like riding a bicycle. not at all. so start small and slow, or do the MSF course- it's the best $300 bucks you'll ever spend.

no fucking way with a blow-thru carb. Maybe if it had megasquirt and a manual trans and was 5k less...maybe.

how about the Mustang atm ... For atmosphere, a scientific measure of pressure equal to about 14psi- not the other meaning, which I know is exactly where your mind went you sick fuck.

based purely on schtick, tg America is the worst. They may be old but the three Brits still have better writers and more believable chemistry with one another than most of the others. The cast of tg America is weak and their shit is too contrived
