The only “safety features” I like or want would be some proper structural engineering and crumple zones so that my car doesn’t fold like a pancake in a collision. I don’t want any of those electronic nannies and I don’t need 32 different airbags.

Bullshit. When you retire, you’re sitting on a pot of money that has to last you until you die, and you can only burn through a certain amount every year until it runs out. You don’t have the ability to go back to work when you’re 95 if you live longer than expected, or if your health costs go up. They’re not “taking…

Old people live on fixed income. When you’re living off retirement savings and it has to last the rest of your life, two-thousand-dollar tech gizmos become far less important to you.

“turns heads everywhere it goes”, says the dealer’s web page.

OK, then, how about "This Ugly GTO Might Go Cheap." I think that fits.

This question should be “transportation” not just car, because this is obviously the best way to get there.

A smart fortwo with an engine swap. Cars are usually status symbols and/or indicators of the lifestyle you live. A smart like this gives the middle finger to all of that.

Ive got an 86 ss and that fucker is gorgeous

Still miss mine every day, I will buy another, when I have a garage with armed guard to protect it. As an aside I’m the guy from the Jalopnik film festival premiere of Black Air that related his story of his GN being stolen after 1 month and 24 days of ownership.....

Just make it out of Nerf foam.

This should not happen because I would be insanely jealous of any child with one.

Call me when this one is available

Oh god, another guy who thinks he has “smart solutions” for the world. Those “solutions” always come down to people like you thinking you should be making decisions for the rest of us. Incidentally, while I’d never be lame enough to commute 2 hours each way, yeah I am happy to use a clutch for that long. The…

I wonder how long before these self driving cars start sneaking out at night looking for a race?

Has anybody actually done a study to figure out whether anyone actually wants a self driving car?

That is totally F’ng disgusting. Now some nitwit is gonna’ try this. Truckers get fined for dumping bottles of urine in trash. I’ve seen signs at truck stops. That’s bio waste. At least you’re thinking though......keep trying! Where’s my damn pill!

Exactly. This car needs to be mid 20s to sell well. I work from home and don’t put a lot of miles on my car. I think if I had a Volt I might fill up once a month, maybe, but if I’m spending that much money I’ll get a car that looks good/performs well and screw the gas savings.

How to make the Volt interesting:

You mean they didn’t use the one shown in these pics?
