my mk6 GTI was the most boring car to drive spiritedly. So I kinda agree with Citric.

The thing that always comes to mind when I see rust on my rotors is, “oh, it must be time for a drive.”

our mutual hostage situation

“...this isn’t Craigslist [...] Jalopnik asked Mecum whether these cars were fully vetted before being listed. Jalopnik has yet to hear back”

Ooooh, I’m curious then to see what the factory MotoGP Ducati team will do about their Phillip Island race at the end of the year.

As an aside, this perfectly encapsulates the interest scope of ‘lopnik...

Am I the only person who notices it’s just the same photo mirrored?

An estate wagon version is also coming.

Neutral / 1st Gear: is AEB feasible for manual transmission cars? I’m thinking that if AEB kicked in while cruising in 6th gear, that if the driver didn’t quickly follow suit by pressing the clutch pedal then the car would stall before coming to a full stop and that could actually make the whole situation worse.

What in the good g**d*** is even going on here!?! Random tape on the helmet, raggedy-ass tore up race suit, and Vans all strutting toward his brand new X4 M in the paddock of Willow Springs with a cap all-not-having-a-flat-bill-like-it-should-for-the-douche-nozzles-buying-this-damn-thing...... I’m so confused....

Even the guy on the right has a little bit of a “are we still doing this?” sense about him.  Poor Pinin’, things just ain’t what they used to be...

There were a couple times where I was driving my Scion FR-S around and had the thought, “This is a pretty quick car.” That was kinda embarrassing.

I have come here only to say: those are the best doors.

So, Toyota’s US car lineup includes a Mazda sedan, a Subaru coupe, and a BMW coupe. Separately, Toyota appears to be pouring money into their bread and butter trucks, SUVs (both large and baby), and hybrids.

This may be a bit pedantic, but in the case of the Clubman, there are two rear windows. One wiper for each rear window — thus the ratio is actually one wiper per window, which is still in-line with the typical rear window wiper arrangement.

I feel like they paid specific attention to not have that parting line on the door be revealed until now.  It does (slightly) undo the aesthetic of that body line and ‘cavity’ in the door’s shape.

It is the prettiest Z4.

So, besides the NSX, have non-aggressive round headlamps and have generally round’ish edges or be a hatchback and we will be OK with the car. I concur.

This is the opposite of ‘zero f**** given’. So many eff’s were given, that it is over-the-top in how exacting its packaging is, and none of it feels like it’s meant to suit the owner, but to impress everyone else who sees it.

Modern headlights have definitely improved in blinding oncoming traffic, or the driver ahead of them via the rearview mirror.
