French copy of the 2012 Veloster C3 Roll Top? I do believe so.

Oh Lord... Now the French are copying the Koreans, but with a it better style (they are the French after all)? BTW, in case you've been able to erase it from your consciousness, here's a reminder of the Hyundai Veloster Roll Top concept from last year:

Best Cars of 2013? Gotta include the Focus ST and Fiesta ST... for LOTS of reasons. Live with it for more than a few days and you'll appreciate the Focus ST's quality driving experience and functional compromise. I know I have.

But... but... but... he's a Petty. Oops, I mean he's petty.

One word: Merkur.

How does Chevy do it? How do they continue to make cars that almost look good... almost... ?

Someone hear our cry and bring us some performance vans... I'd like a Ford Transit Connect ST personally:

Gotta love vans, especially as an family hauler alternative to a proper full-size wagon. To that end, I've inquired, I've begged, I've pleaded, but alas the official word I've heard is that a Transit Connect ST is a non-starter with Ford. Didn't stop me from 'chopping this up and sending it to them:

Uh, anyone else catch the Seat Cup Racer that debuted at Worthersee? Can't help but think there's more than a bit of resemblance between the VW concept and the Seat...

There are so many psychos out there, and under the right circumstances, it seems even the most reasonable of people can become psychos in traffic. The best course of action is to just slow down and let them go. Personal experience taught me an important truism a long time ago: it's better to have a…

Here in Florida this has been to court and ruled upon already, in favor of the headlight flashing driver, so precedence is set. Free speech FTMFW! In fact, Jalopnik "reported" on the Florida ruling almost a year ago:

Brutal... absolutely brutal. It occurs to me that a fire suppression system would be very cheap bit of insurance on a car like that. Wonder why more modern supercars don't come with fire suppression as a factory feature.

I don't get this given how many great sounding V6 engines exist... take any Alfa V6 or even the Yamaha engineered V6 from the old Ford Taurus SHO. It's crazy to imagine they need "enhancement" unless they've done things specifically to kill their awesome sound to begin with (i.e. to meet noise limit requirements,…

My pleasure.

I had the pleasure of talking to Shawn Lisjack at SEMA last year when I spotted his work of art Civic being prepped for the show. The work... 5000 hours of it... is exceptional and as engaging a finish as has probably ever graced a car. And the process necessary to make it happen explains the hours spent... etching…

My comments and STFU was actually intended euphemistically, and not meant for anyone directly. I think most of either have that pic in a photo album or maybe wish we did. I love that his has been immortalized, at least ephemerally, to remind us how jaded we (as a culture) have become of how awesome cars still…

Too bad Pontiac doesn't exist anymore... they could've called it the G8 GXP Safari. And you know what, I think I'd like it even better than the CTS-V wagon.

That pic is f'ing awesome, that kid is f'ing awesome. No sarcasm, no bullshit, no lie. If you weren't that kid when you were a kid, you knew that kid, and he was awesome. He was actually nice. He knew stuff you didn't about stuff you wouldn't even know to ask about until you were 16 and stuck in the school parking…

I've got the perfect "minivan" for NPH, it's just too bad this isn't real... YET!

This is simple...
