Ah yes, This is the article that broke the bending straw. Jalopnik used to feature cool and quirky cars that definitely didn’t meet emission standards, but not a single person cared about that. Jalopnik is no longer about automobiles, its about making fun of people who are passionate about automobiles and being… Read more

Letting all that happen for $4k is a really bad idea. Read more
True, but some options are better than others when dealing with breaking said terms. Also, they didn’t really break any terms. The contract has a stated penalty if you go over miles. That’s in the contract. Everything is a negotiation. Seems to me, if you buy the car at the end of the lease, any penalty for miles over… Read more
I would love to own a 1976 Buick Electra Limited in greed with white vinyl and green brocade fabric interior.
As a former owner of a 1971 Buick Le Sabre, and as someone who lived in a somewhat rugged rural area at that time, I feel compelled to inform you of just how wrong you are. That car was driven to that location, and it was driven out of it. Back then, we drove cars like this everywhere. Want to go skinny dipping at the… Read more
How dare you say that era’s cars were terrible! My sister bought a brand new 1972 Chevy Vega that she would still be driving to this day if it hadn’t become a rusted hulk and mechanical disaster about the time she hit 20K on the odometer!

I have a 1990 Storm 5 speed. Still in great shape and fun to drive. Obviously not my only car now, but still drive it most every day. I bought it new when I needed a 4 seater to have a place for a baby seat. So now my daughter and car are both turning 30! Anyway, I know a lot of people don’t like the Storm. Maybe I… Read more

Alternate viewpoint... I recently rented a Charger GT with the Pentastar V6. Full disclosure, I am an unashamed car snob and was prepared to hate my mass produced rental with oversized wheels and (in proportion to) comically under sized Brembo rear brakes. But I didn’t. In fact, I spent the weekend with it charging up… Read more
