If there’s no Steve Carell cameo, I’m not there

I used to love the NSX. But ever since The Great Reveal, it seems like the NSX is the choice for people who are willing to spend an extra $90,000 just to not have a C8.

An 8-speed ZF Friedrichshafen is as different from a rental car slushbox as a Parabola Imperial Stout is from a Bud Lite.

Jalops are the grumpiest car-haters you’ll find anywhere. 

The fact that you can’t get a Civic hatchback without getting the hideous four-door lumpbucket is simply ridiculous.

So many wrong answers, thank you for getting one right.

Limos are for bachelorette parties in Vegas and taking pimply kids in rented tuxedoes to prom.

A lot of people just think all muscle cars are lame. Boring old Boomer mobiles, the four-wheeled equivalent of an Eric Clapton record. 

This is an excellent choice. Have a star.

Ugh, I hate that car with every fiber of my being. 

Nope. It’s too big, can’t turn a corner, and it’s a Ford.

They all seem superfluous at best, useless at worst, but I guess this is the dystopian world of cars now. At least they’re integrated well into the interior, and don’t seem to have a bright blinding UI like the Tesla debacle.

Exciting! Please report. I’ve been thinking about one myself.

Nothing, people who drive Ford Escapes in the suburbs just get defensive real easily

Take a joke, hipster

PORTLAND

If you live in Portland, you need practical, strong, and quirky. A little Soviet heritage doesn’t hurt, either.

I’m in love with the proximity key on my Alfa Romeo, because it doesn’t unlock automatically when you walk up to it—it waits for you to put your hand into the door handle. That way the car’s not unlocking when I don’t want it to, but it’s also a zero-step process.
