I can’t imagine anyone reading this and wanting to try it.

You’re right. We should only cover things that we fully endorse. We will never cover dumb things ever again. If we pretend they don’t exist, they will go away.

It’s not that we don’t cover the street scene at all, it’s that we try not to glorify it. We don’t spend time here extolling the virtues of street drifting here, rather the opposite. It’s possible to cover it, and even embed with the people who do it, without pretending it’s wonderful, and we feel we did that here.…

This sounds a lot like the kind of street racing behavior that gets innocent bystanders killed, and that Jalopnik usually takes pains to denounce.

The other reason for moving the car, LaSha told me, was that her husband wanted to show that it could be done after his friend voiced some doubts.

Okay we’ll consider the front door of your house an imaginary line and see how much patience you have when swaths come busting through your door demanding you give them food and shelter.

I visited New York back in 1987. I found it gritty, dangerous and Time Square was filled with porno theaters.

Go buy a GT350 then. It comes exclusively with a manual. Or a Focus RS for the same reason. Or Mustang GT with a manual. Or buy either of the ST twins, they’re both manual-only.

Here we go again. Let me just say this loud and clear, and this is coming from an owner of a DSG GTI (sold for a 6MT) and a DuoSelect Maserati QP (horrible SMG transmission):

Will you miss a manual in what could be the angriest Mustang ever?

Not if you’re Mapuche!!!

Needs to be advertised in the UK at double the price.

I hope our people are treating you well and that you're enjoying our beautiful country! Be safe :)

As a Chilean that is excited about an upcoming trip to Torres del Paine and Tierra del Fuego, thank you for sharing this! That’s awesome and I never knew about these! Such a cool find. I hope our people are treating you well and that you're enjoying our beautiful country! Be safe :)

Somehow, though, I actually managed to find two of these cars in a neighborhood about a mile from my hotel here, as I was wandering around hunting for interesting cars.

This is good Jalopnik: finding rare cars, and meeting nice car enthusiasts, while on a long road trip.

Nobody is calling him Jimmy Saville, that man was a literal rapist and the devil incarnate. But it’s not great, and it’s worse because he’s Paul Walker. When it’s some middling dude with no prospects who winds up with a 16 year old because they’re impressionable and fall or an older man then while it is creepy and…

Less than half his age?

Maybe this is just me speaking for myself, but I think dating someone less than half your age is intrinsically creepy.
