Anyone watched the (horribly named) ‘Drive to Survive’ on Netflix? The head of Red Bull said one of the most dick-ish things you can say to Renault after Ricciardo signed with Renault and right as they were about to head into a presser: “If you spend all your money on drivers; are you going to have any money left for…

The main reason I am going with 18s is that is the smallest size that comes stock; So I know that the stock calipers will fit.

The most SUV-looking SUV concept that’s been released in a looooong time.

I actually put tires that are ~1-2 inches taller on the stock wheels for my Disco II and I think it looks 1,000 times better and feels more sure-footed than a mountain goat in the Chicago snow.. Only get slight rub on full lock.

I loved Oppo. Before the whole format of the Jalopnik site changed, I often went to their feed.

Just because this is on the subject of an offroad Porsche... I though of the Macan S and how to make it just slightly more offroad appropriate via wheel/tire change only (as there aren’t an lift options really), and I’d like to hear a debate on it.

As I said, his (Adam) thesis was that we should walk more. Regardless, while my bus in Chicago does actually pick me up right in front of my house, most people’s bus stops or trains are not right outside their house or only show up right as they walk out of their home.

I feel similarly. I’ve only watched one episode of ‘Adam Ruins Everything’ and it was on “Cars”. The basic thesis was that everyone should live in densely-packed urban areas. Oh, and they have to be warm year-round because we are going to walk everywhere.

I never appreciated Chicago’s alleys until I started traveling to NYC and saw how many delivery trucks were blocking lanes of traffic. God bless Daniel Burnham and his ilk for embracing alleyways.

An interesting brand that I had never heard of until I went to The Revs Institute in Naples last month.

Should the BMW 7-series design team take a crack at it?

Mazda did this back in 2007 with the Ryuga:

And I thought Rokit’s unreleased phone was vaporware!

At the end it seem like that red Nissan doesn’t know how to follow marshal instructions as he nearly hits that Spitty.

A definite improvement over the grey/red, but Alfa’s livery last year and this year is still the best. For me, you can’t beat that deep metallic red color.

This is what is so “satisfying”:

Yeah, that idiot should have known that.
