If someone is standing in the middle of the street obstructing traffic, telling them if they don’t move they will be dead seems more like sound advice than a threat. 

Auto journalists need to get over their group-think complaints about high mounted infotainment screens. They are placed high up because that’s where your eyes should be. Stop complaining about it.If you prioritized a design aesthetic and integrated it into the lower dash it would reduce driver attentiveness to the…

The purchase price is almost irrelevant when it comes to old audis. They’re all $15k cars. You can pay up front or later on.

The trend of ultra low profile tires for relatively pedestrian cars needs to stop. Honda has lately been a regular offender in this regard, look at the pedestrian Accord with 35 series tires. Its a good looking car and may look sexy on the lot but those tires will ruin the ride. 

The best car Acura makes is a Honda Accord,that’s their problem, they’re an aspirational brand who’s entry brand is making better more desirable cars.

I missed the part where you explained why it was terrible. Because he told jokes? And provided some opinions on world events to people that asked him to come talk about world events? Seems like you just disagree with what he was saying. That doesn’t make it terrible. 

Didn’t Hoovie just have to mechanically total one of these because it was so unfixable with a smoking exhaust?

I agree with simple well thought out phone mounts instead of integrated infotainment screens for budget models. Notice I said well thought out. The lead photo in your story shows Datsun sticking the phone right in front of the passengers air vent. Really, Datsun, that’s the best you could do? I could find a better…

Just a primer for those new to the Gawker Media family...

Always enjoy the class warfare nonsense in the comments section as well as in the articles themselves. Do you really think that people who have more money than they could spend in 10 lifetimes are worried about making more money? They do what they do because they enjoy it. And most people I know are anxious to be back…

Erik when you reference a company’s value you shouldn’t relate it to stock price. Tesla and Ford have vastly different amounts of stock available for ownership making a $5 share and a $900 share apples and oranges. It’s market capitalization or market cap that compares value from one publicly traded company to…

I had the plymouth version of this exact minivan when my kids were young. It was supremely comfortable, floated down the road, and those seats were like couches. The v6 had plenty of power and it was very reliable. I miss having a minivan and I’m kind of bummed they fell out of favor. 

The meat processing plants you refer to as disgusting are probably the most highly regulated work environments on the planet. They literally have Federal health inspectors working there full-time. We have much higher recall rates and rates of consumer illness in the vegetable food chain than we do in the meat…

BMW factories in South Carolina never stop working...Jalopnik doesn’t even mention

Dunno about which car to pick but I do suggest not calling California “Cali” in front of anyone from California. 

Last time I checked Tesla was selling as many EVs as they can make, year after year, without spending one penny on advertising or “pitching” EVs to anyone. 

My contrarian view is that I don’t miss the garish colors that were more popular in the past. I also don’t miss leg warmers or perms. 

I do own a significant amount of commercial real estate in California. I’m not saying I’m an expert but I’m quite sure I know more about that market than Farah. I know what it costs to build here and I’m looking at his ROI being decades, not years. I’m surprised he even got financed which makes me think he has…

Matt seems like a nice enough guy but he could write a book on how to earn $1 million dollars by spending $2 million. Who builds an uber expensive vanity project parking garage in California, when everyone who’s anyone with money for an exotic has at least a 4 gar garage. It’s not NYC.

Every Northstar engine either just had a head gasket or needs it done. And it costs more than the car is worth.
