Back when he wrote for Automobile, Ezra Dyer took an SL65 to the drag strip and clocked in an initial run of 11.9. The track official told Ezra he needed to slow down because 11's required a roll cage. I think everyone was astonished that in 2005 you could drop $180k and get a factory warranted, 11 second convertible…

+1 for a red dwarf reference.

I feel like I caught a venereal disease after visiting that website.

People who have used them will fall in love, and never want a car without them ever again.

I have no idea what you mean, can you explain?

I enjoyed Logan Lucky and disagree with Justin’s assessment. I felt that it wasn’t laughing at the South. If anything, casting Seth MacFarlane as a Brit was insulting.

996s are cheap enough now that I just want the lift kit for the Bedouin to go rallying. And then do sweet jumps and stuff.

It doesn’t. 2nd gen SHO’s with a trunk spoiler are automatic.

I remember when it came out it got Tom Cruise tons of press, butalmost 20 years later I remember William H. Macy’s “I really do have love to give, I just don’t know where to put it” speech to John C Reilly. Just crushing.

My aunt is in the same age bracket and she still works at a bank. When I asked her about it five years ago her response was “What else am I going to do?” She’s been saying every year since she’s going to retire, but she doesn’t because, well, what else is she going to do?

This was my first thought as well.

So, he’s the Buzzfeed zergnet of writers?

Otherwise known as the Dunning-Kruger effect.

I noticed that too. Racing?

Model S can be equipped as a seven seater. For instance, Consumer Reports had one.

Disco Stu approves!

The Continental isn’t a tradition pull handle latch. It doesn’t move, and there’s an electronic button on the inside of the handle. For Sweden has a point: all the looks of a door handle without the functionality.

This is good kinja.
