I totally agree. I now have a siren song in my head, screaming, "A lovely 360 isn't that unattainable."

I had a non AMG, CL600. I had an aftermarket extended warranty that did pay some. Maintenance and repairs for 3 years cost me $32,000. There is nothing more expensive than a cheap Mercedes. I've said this over and over and Jalopnik writers still keep encouraging ill-informed viewer to take the plunge.
I've had my Model S since March of '13 and have ~24k miles on it. My list of issues include:
1) Sunroof motor going out (took 5 days to replace and was given full loaded Model S loaner for duration)
2) Creaking noises near the sunroof
3) Defrosting issues which was fixed via an over the air software patch.
4) Right rear…
They should have let Rob take it to the crack spot , that would have been interesting.
You spelled 'people who actually like cars' wrong.
Anyone who dares to criticize what Google does = "Luddite"
This whole thing ruins it for me...the rest of the car is quite nice
They're already partially there.
Just feel compelled to say this thread made me think that of the Gawker family, Jalopnik has the best writing, best commenters and then best feedback from writers by a (40 second?) mile. Safe place to talk informed shit and a safe place for writers to respond. Love this site.
As a huge BaT reader and commenter, I'm seeing a lot of content on Jalopnik that was originally found by them being spliced over... With no credit to BaT.
At least it's right-side-up. My very first brand new car, a 1975 Chevy Laguna Type S-3, had a small "Laguna" emblem on the passenger side of the dashboard, and mine was installed upside down at the factory. I just left it that way for the hell of it.

He pulled out let traffic by, waited for a bit to yield a gap and gave it. It was a 4 lane street and very few cars were even around. Sure he caught up to the traffic real quick but by that time he was off throttle and coasting (maybe even braking). He wasn't doing this alongside traffic or on a tight street. You…
Might be dreaming small for a dream car. But I'd love to see an AZ-1 in person. Talk to the owner. Maybe look inside. Not sure why but I really really want one.
The big one for me is a Tatra 603
I would sell my left kidney to see one up close.
No longer with us (unfortunately), but...
180 mph from a 2-liter four, in something that looks like the size of a MG Midget. Unbelievable. Glad that folks like Petrolicious and Chris Harris are doing what they do, giving people like me things to drool over.
Fly away, little Autozam AZ-1. Fly away and be free.
He had been planing a Chev 350 installation. He's got the whole drive train from a pickup truck. The plan was to drop the Tib's front sub frame & build a ladder frame off that to hold the engine, tranny & axle. Then gut the Tib's unit body - I mean really gut it, hack & slice 'till the Tib' fit on the ladder frame,…
