I can’t believe I had to scroll this far down to read this comment. I was overjoyed to see this article all on a single page.

It looks just like a.....

Won’t lie, I think it’s kinda cool in a weird pre-reno Petersen Museum/House on the Rock kinda way. It’d be fun to rent those storefronts out as Air-BnB’s, and have your own personal village populated by people from all over the world.

It’s good, but the Icy Hot Stuntaz did it better.

The covid-lockdowns have been hard on my scotch supply. I’ve got like 1" of 12-year Macallan left in the bottle.

The Jag was located on Whidbey Island sometime between 1977 and 1980.

Ironically, Alfas have had start-stop systems for over half a century now, they just didn’t realize they could spin it as a feature until recently.

It’s an ‘87 where the original emblem fell off, and the only replacements available were the ‘91-up style.

I don’t envy anyone else trying to restore an AE86 with junkyard parts.

Not in the US they aren’t. As far as I know there’s not a single stand alone Genesis dealership here.

Most gaming chairs are aftermarket car seats that really won’t cut it in an actual car. If you want true quality, your best bet is to buy a kit that you can bolt an actual used (or new) Recaro to, like these JDM Recaro SP-JJ “Crayolas” in my AE86:

The Cadenza is the K7, I’m pretty sure they’ll fix the name in the US soon.

As someone with family in Korea, the Optima has always been the K5 to me, and just had a weird name in the US. To me this is more like giving a car its real name back, like when the Scion FR-S was (properly) renamed the Toyota 86 in the US to match the name it has in the Japanese home market.

Yeah, Korea is much more about everyone fitting in, but in the way that as long as your Maybach/Ferrari/Maserati etc. is painted somewhere on the spectrum between white and black, you’re socially accepted.

As a professional designer with two design degrees (ArtCenter and CCS) I want to tip my hat to the amazing work that has been coming out of the Genesis studios recently. First the G90, then the GV90, and now this. Except for the corporate grille creating an awkward pinch point at its lowest point, these cars are…

You hit the nail on the head..China makes a Copy of a Copy..

I totally agree. I’m always really impressed with my father-in-law’s KIA K7 whenever I go over there.
