The car may have blown fire at :48, but I'm pretty sure I blew mine at :44.

@bryancohnracing: If you think that not buying gas from Citgo stations keeps you from buying Citgo gas, you misunderstand the oil delivery system.

@KeyserSöze: You say that, but look at it with fresh eyes. It's damn near conservative, compared with later crops of small SUVs. It looks like a hardcore version of the Juke.

@AMGkiller: In what universe does the toronado not make much power? Even at 2.5 tons, it only had 13 lbs/hp, which is only a smidge more than the torque-steer-a-riffic mazdaspeed3.

I read a parenting magazine once (waiting room beggars can't be choosers), and saw a New Car Review. One of the categories they rated the cars in was Cupholder Count. Shocked the hell out of me.

@Alex Alperovich: "I have 1 cup holder in my car, barely use it. I have no trouble driving cross-country, none at all! I never buy anything that doesn't have a cap that closes, and if I do, there's my one cup holder. Acura had it right on the Legends; you don't need 4-dozen cup holders in a car. Period."

@loyter: If the courtroom got to see the end of the race, where the driver says "delete that video. delete that video," I suspect they felt there was no miscarriage of justice.

@trev: You checked the taxes on emigrating recently?

@BRObh11126: On a related note, perhaps the feds should mandate that people stop being fed the false security of low-vis greenhouses, and instead have acres of glass everywhere.

Perhaps they are cancelling it to make room for the Step Bus in their lineup?

@DittoBox: What kind of real problems do YOU have?

@Slowlane: You can get it with a stick shift, it's super comfy on the inside, and it's a Honda, so it will likely run until your cats' grandkittens die of old age.

@jetRink: And in 20 years, your kids will not understand why you insist that wipers AREN'T automatic.

@contest005: A wild stallion and a baby chicken were playing in the mud one day. Unfortunately, the mud was really sticky, and pretty soon the little bird got stuck. At first, the stallion suggested they go grab Mr. Farmer's shiny new G-wagen, and tow him out of the mud. The little guy said, "NO! we can't get Mr.…

@PotbellyJoe - Formerly a Frozen Fellow: Also, getting out of a skid is different with FWD, AWD, RWD, or 4WD. It's surprising how many people don't know what wheels are drive wheels on their car, or whether they even have ABS.

@Baby Benz now drives like it should!: Right - any monkey can be shown how to drive in snow. Ice is another beast altogether.

Big, heavy, dirty, dangerously powerful, and adorable.

@The Stig's American Cousin: effort is just a "good part". Another good part is restraint.

@snap_understeer_ftw: and I don't care about style nearly as much as power. I have owned ugly cars that only go fast in a straight line, and I currently own an ugly car that only goes fast around corners. There are definite advantages to either.

@snap_understeer_ftw: I don't know - beige with an engine swap is pretty much the definition of sleeper.
