It is a stretch but the steering wheel reminds of the Citroen one.

Yes, I’m here from Jalopnik, why do you ask?

The efforts are lost on me as well. I will almost always park my car and walk in to order. Not only will my order be placed sooner, I’m not wasting fuel and generating CO2 as my car idles. Of course, I don’t have kids in the car, so I don’t have that concern.

Guarantee they have Alex Jones on speed-dial. But, uh, bad news, guys.

Right? I’ll make sure every square millimeter of my toast is covered in a fine layer of butter, I’ll double the butter in the recipe of boxed Mac ‘n Cheese or Rice a Roni, I’ll make white rice and eat it with just butter, or just about any pasta with only butter. But a slab of butter with a few toppings? I’ll pass.

I don’t disagree with that.

Pinning 1st gear on EV’s is going after a symptom, not the cause. Modern safety regs turned every convertible into a bunker, hence why the majority are just alterations of low slung sports cars in the first place. It’s not EV’s fault that convertibles are currently the most unpopular product with lowest margins,…

My issue with “Built not bought” is that the “built” line is drawn arbitrarily. Oh, you just bought those control arms for your suspension upgrade? You didn’t build your own arms from steel stock? Oh, you just bought steel stock, you didn’t form and weld your own steel tubes from sheets of steel? Oh, you just just boug…

also some people would rather spend $40k on a car that is fast and will start everytime instead of $20k civic with $20k of parts into it to make it fast. 

Every weekend these clowns are doing donuts at MAJOR intersections in Baltimore. The Moron Mayor just stands in front of the microphone saying “Well, we’re working on a plan...” [He has a plan for everything and nothing ever gets solved.] The police, even with hundreds of videos, have not made a single arrest.

Couldn’t agree more - as a classic car owner that is younger-ish - this is my biggest pet peeve. I have had people at car shows interested in my car and when I tell them all about it (I know ever facet of the build and was involved throughout), they lose interest and walk away when I tell them I didn’t build it myself.

And if they have the skills and just don’t give a shit about doing it as a hobby? The obsession with “you have to have done it yourself” is annoying - I’ve got a job, hobbies beyond cars, family - I don’t have ~time~ to sit there fiddling all weekend trying to dial a tune in or swap headers anymore. It stopped being…

The unsactioned gathering is what draws these folks in. This guy was just the worst offender becuase he killed two people.  Please tell me what “other points of view” I should examine about having modded cars drag race in the middle of a small town with a lot of pedestrian traffic. 

That’s a big assumption there buddy....that I would support reckless driving anywhere let alone in my own community where my neighbors and friends would be at risk. Do I support people modding their own cars even if I think it looks silly? Sure. If these folks want to “unnoffically” get together in a big parking lot…

I would never Donk my own car but whenever I see one on the road I giggle. Just saying the word ‘Donk’ is funny.

Hard disagree. Donks look awesomely stupid but individual builds aren’t going out hurting people inadvertently or doing dumb shit like racing in public for clout. Donk builds know where they stand in car culture, and they’re fine where they are.

I did not know it was a a h20i event in Wasaga beach, it does explain now...

Counterpoint: do these actually hurt anyone? I see rolling coal below and obviously sideshows above, but I don’t really see any issue with people making their cars the way they like them. This is ONLY pertaining to the modifications, not what an owner does after the car is modified (drag race, donuts in an…

Nope. I’m about as far from a libertarian as you can get, and am a bug believer in big government-especially in the realm of health and safety, but this is a step too far even for me. It is a definite intrusion, and, worse, it operates from a presumption of guilt where innocence must be proved first. That is just…

LOL yeah I do not understand what kind of complaint that even is.
