The comments were on different articles, so there's no shame necessary. It just proves that The A-Team is part of the cultural zeitgeist. Now I need to see if it's on netflix instant watch, because I'm unconsciously humming the theme song.

@Skink: I can't believe that I thought I was going to be the only person to reference the A-Team today.
My guess is that he's some kind of rich wannabe-film-star who crashes cars through his gate every day in homage to the badass stuntwork from the classic 80's TV show "The A Team".
Left Detroit in the past 10 years... yeah, I guess I did that. I was just leaving college, so I was really put off by the general lack of ambition and the blatant, unapologetic racism. Not really due to cars, except that they were occasionally used by white kids to shout "nigger" from for no real good reason at all.…
My guess is that he'd drive a meme... into the ground.
Man, they're not even putting their backs into it; that'll buff right out.
@WAFFO: Some people these days don't actually know what "hack" means. You "hack" something to make it do something novel and / or unintended. A security breach is a type of hack (specifically, a "crack").
@evoCS: Anyone who's paid any attention to my posts knows how much I love Subaru. Even so, I'm saddened to see the Evo leave us. Sure, we Subaru guys take friendly jabs at the Evo guys, but I still shoot a thumbs-up to Evo drivers when I see 'em on the road. That friendly rivalry pushes both parties to do better and…
I don't ACTUALLY believe that this is a marketing conspiracy - as you say, it does stretch the limits of belief.
Still amazed that I like a matte red car. I'd love to see a miata-range price tag on this thing.
A serious response to a tongue-in-cheek post deserves a serious response of its own.
I swear, exotic car companies give their cars away for free purely as an advertising exercise. How many millions of people will hear about this - for free - 'cause Lambo gave away a 450k car to the right terrible driver.
@MaWeiTao: ...and when it realized it couldn't reach them, IT SHOT FIRE AT THEM (3:06).
The screen for the back-up camera looks a little tacky just hangin' out like that. Pity they couldn't integrate it into the dash somewhere.
@Bluecold: There are very few career paths where the proper plural of "anus" is relevant. Here's hoping you're a doctor.
@alan505: I nominate this for MetaCoTD.
@pauljones: Fortunately, that fan won't get anywhere with a mouse, a battery and a can of yellow spray paint.
Now that's a snappy-looking car! It's nice to see Suzuki start to care as much about their car design as they do about their bike designs.
I got a little scared when I misread the headline. The good Sir isn't getting any younger, you know.
The best thing to come out if this is that I now know about ca.jalopnik.com. As a privately held media company, your job is to serve the consumers - us - so that we keep visiting your sites. High-minded ideals and pushing some clumsy pseudo-web3.0 aren't what keep readers loyal. I'm honestly curious about the ratio of…
