Wait no way, I didn’t know about this. And they sold some in the US?? I need one badly.

Gran Turismo definitely turned a lot of people into car enthusiasts, most of the time with a particular affinity for Japanese sports cars of the ‘90s and ‘00s. (I know that’s me 100%.) One of my favorite things about Gran Turismo compared to other racing series is that it’s always been an encyclopedia as much as a…

I would love to get his book. I miss reading his articles every month.

I didn’t say it looked like an Aztek, just Aztek-level of ugly. And it does have a lot of similar elements to be fair (the cladding and general grille shape for example).

“I’VE MENDED SOMETHING!”

Not to mention that the new Camry V6 has just over 300 hp and is pretty quick.

I don’t have a problem with people buying new Explorers, but I DO have a problem with people buying white or black Explorers with blacked out rims. They’re everywhere here in LA and it’s maddening when so many actual LAPD Explorers are also around (both marked and unmarked).

I got into cars through the original Gran Turismo, which through some stroke of fate was gifted to me on my 6th birthday by a classmate who didn’t know (and I can only assume that his parents, who presumably bought the gift, also didn’t know) that my family game console happened to be a PlayStation, or that we even…

I love this take, and now I want a B210.

I think I’d have mine in pink.

Oh man, the word “comparo” concisely defines an entire era in automotive journalism. Now I have Road & Track nostalgia with a big ampersand on the cover and a Peter Egan article in every issue.

Especially if it’s a Ralliart Sportback.

I totally forgot the HHR SS was a thing.

I personally think the Vibe is Aztek-level ugly, but the Matrix is nice and they’re both good cars.

This is at the top of my list for a second car. Especially if I can find one with dark green paint and a tan top.

My aunt has a red LHD MGF that she imported. Sweet car.

I love the styling on this generation. It’s just nice and easy to look at.

I hope the compact uprising happens, partly because small cars are awesome and partly because I want to see Ford’s reaction.

I think $4/gallon for regular is the average here, but it really varies wildly. There’s a station down the street from my house that’s almost down to $3/gallon, and there are some areas where it’s more like $5/gallon. But the majority I see sitting around $4.

But gas IS $4/gallon!
