Major bummer. Edd China was the best part of the best car show on TV. Who knows what velocity was thinking...even the so-called expensive bits of the show to film are dirt cheap compared to scripted shows.

Can always count on FTA for the dimmest possible view of America’s assets. The sky is falling 24/7 according to you guys. Every military program is a boondoggle, every asset is a disaster.

An american aircraft carrier hasn’t been sunk since WWII. Meanwhile they have been the single most dominant military implement the world has ever known, surpassing even nuclear weapons as projecting US military power globally. Not surprisingly, FTA hates them.

seems like a highly coordinated “sighting”. As in the car does a double pass by the camera in the parking lot. Tesla PR keeping M3 in top of mind no doubt. Not that I’m complaining, I ordered one.

Best article on Jalop in a long time. Complete with Edd China reference. Very well done.

I would like to see criminal prosecution for the lives lost chasing CAFE fuel economy standards. Modern cars are so flimsy, I could punch a hole through the metal of my daughters civic. Meanwhile across the street from CAFE HQ, DOT is pretending they don’t know why traffic fatalities are increasing. You could…

“AMERICA’S ROADS ARE A D+ !!!”*

Have you checked the horsepower on this thing? An anemic engine combined with AWD equals can’t get out of it’s own way. It’s sooooooo slow. At least the alltrack can merge into freeway traffic.

This is why I insist on getting all my fake news from Gizmodo.

This article is an embarrassment. Don’t you at least have an editor that holds to some kind of journalistic standards of objectivity, even if you don’t?

How could this scam work when service records will clearly show the previous (real) mileage of the car? Ferrari’s being ridiculously service-intensive, there’s no way that La Ferrari has gone unserviced during the first year of ownership, and they’re impossible to sell without said service records.

I understand this is a turbo 4, but have you driven one? Presumably the X is somewhat slower, but the RWD 330i is a very quick car, 0-60 published @ 5.7 sec but almost every car mag gets 5.3 . That’s properly quick.

Terrifying!

Meanwhile Mexico maintains strict border enforcement on it’s southern border, much of it protected by a wall, and has for all practical purposes banned immigration from poorer central american countries.

The falcon-wing doors of the Model 3 — aka a pointless and unnecessarily complex solution to a problem that’s already been solved. Love my Model S, but question the engineering effort poured into a non-critical design feature in a car that’s supposed to be cheap and easy to build, if only someone can say no to the…

I had new E60 545i for 3 years and loved it. Loved the design and it was very reliable for a BMW, which is to say not particularly. The felt door jam pads made E60s creak like a pirate ship. I had to rub baby powder on them monthly, that was the fix the forums came up with since BMW had no clue. Also the automatic…

There a some fundamental flaws in your logic, not the least of which is your failure to point out that over-regulation was in no small part responsible for the crap products US car makers put out in the mid 70s to mid 80s. Giant heavy bumpers, choking emissions controls, ridiculous chokehold automatic seatbelts, inane…

Thanks for quoting a study funded by the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers to defend NAFTA. I needed a good laugh. Next let’s hear from the Alliance of foxes on how chicken coop doors are unnecessary.

So tired of all these nonsense unintended acceleration claims over the years, all of which always end up being user error. The media needs to cast a more jaundiced eye on these claims before they fall over themselves to report it.

Who cares who sings a song at the inauguration. It’s a meaningless sideshow to entertain people so disinterested in their future they require a band to watch their president take the oath.
