Based on one of the angles seen in this video, there seems to be a go pro mounted on the steering wheel but it isn’t visible in other interior shots. I smell conspiracy. Who’s with me?

Question: How does this fantastical company called Rinspeed turn a profit? This has bothered me for years. It seems like they are a perpetual concept company with no viable consumer-ready products. Any insight is much appreciated. Thanks internet!

I have a 1974 bmw 2002. The previous owner removed these diving boards and installed some bumpers from a 1973. I got in a sub-5 mph crash that damaged the bumper, the kidney grill and dented the front body above the grill. I wish it still had the 5 mph bumpers.

Paid $4000 for mine five years ago. I’ve done regular maintenance and really nothing more. The car starts nearly every time, even if it’s sat for a month. I only drive it 2-4 times per month but it’s so cheap to own, and those 2-4 days are so glorious that I just can’t convince myself to sell it. It’s more reliable…

Agree. Love these things. Why the hell do trucks come with carpet liners?

Missing headrests in all the movies! Those are for safety people. You’re going to snap your head off in a rear-ender.

Seeing a frowning man sitting on top of a smiling man, both sitting in a 1/5 scale spaceship is hilarious. Thanks for the laugh.

He’s a great driver as well. He loves to drift everything. Or he can go racing in some vintage awesome sauce and get a respectable placement.

The amount of content and features available on non-luxury cars is usually just a few years behind luxury cars these days. My Friend’s 2015 Outback has way more tech than my 2010 LR4. Granted - some of that is because Land Rover tech is usually about 5 years behind its competition. But I digress.

This seems to be the trend with modern “off road” vehicles. They destroy the olds in the traction department but totally fail in the toughness / ground clearance / articulation / everything else department. My LR4 has enough electronic gizmos and locking what nots to maximize traction, but you can’t fit big tires and…

30% of them have pop-up headlights. Where have all the pop-ups gone?

Do those vestigial wings provide any usable lift?

October 26th, 2015, the day butt-plug cannibalism, one of the fastest growing religions in the world, gets its start from a cheeky blog post on a little-known car enthusiast site called Jalopnik.

I love this series of racing. It is supremely entertaining. It’s akin to going to the dog races only to find you arrived for Dachshund night.

2001 Mercedes F400 Carving - would love to drive it.
