This is actually the eastern european knockoff, the Dadge Dort.

I kinda want to complain about yet another car company making a competition car that doesn't even share the same engine / driven wheel configuration as it's consumer-grade namesake, but I'm just too excited about seeing more US manufacturers getting into the rally scene.

Is that an STI? I've got an '07 and there's now a SECOND cupholder located even closer to the shifter. About the only thing it's good for is to hold your phone when you're listening to music. (image is the best google result I could find)

It would appear so!

That's their proposed ANSWER to the question, not the question itself. The question - to quote the original post - is "What's the best combination of a tiny car and a big engine?" QoTD almost never judges on a quantifiable category because then it gets down to pedantic number crunching instead of answer the soul of…

Think of the stories we'll tell our grandkids: "back in my day, a major car company made a car with over 500 horsepower and no computers to tell all that power where to go! you just put your foot down and prayed. it was less like the driving you know today and more like an accident that never stopped happening."

Well, the question isn't a raw "pounds per hp" equation, the question is "which light car is best?". You can strip the weight out of anything and still have poor performance.

It's not my FAVORITE (that would be the oft-mentioned ur-Quattro), but the original Honda Insight hat 3 cylinders... so if someone wants to use it as their favorite, they're welcome to.

Okay, I now have a complaint about this system. I tried to connect my twitter account to my old gawker account and it made me a new gawker account! Does my star and friends list still exist somewhere? //edit: oh, thank goodness I'm back to my old self! Hey matt, thanks for quikcly approving the shell account my…

Ah, that makes sense. I mean, I haven't played New Vegas but I hadn't heard of it having Randian themes. Thanks!

That's not Bioshock onscreen, that's Fallout: New Vegas.

By "we" you're referring to arsonists, I presume?

Oh man, I didn't realize the BRZ was that small. This think should be a hoot with 200hp. Awesome!

"Don't the wealthy have enough choices?"

I didn't read the first article on him because I assumed the worst, and I really don't like the negative tone that invariably pops up when someone is ostentatious with their wealth. Against my better judgement, I decided to read this article - but I'm very glad I did because I love when people defy expectations. I…

Man, I really hate myself for not looking ahead at the WRC schedule and flying down for the only event in my hemisphere, especially considering how great it's bound to be. Caswell's in the house, and Block's brought Atko back to WRC... all good things.

Yes, yes, yes. Do it. I will put money up front for track days JUST DO IT.

That doesn't look mean enough to carry the Exige moniker. Needs more deep cuts, like the older ones.

Now it all makes sense - Chrysler's desperate to get this story out there in the hopes that some bloggers will pick it up pick it up pick it up!

I'd rather have a 458. Crow about the horsepower ratings all you like, but I don't think I'd really be able to tell the difference between 560 and 730 horsepower.
