You sorely underestimate the required effort and energy it would take to get the import laws changed. In terms of political power and influence, Jalopnik and it’s community don’t exist at all, and the wider auto enthusiast community at large exists a tiny bit more than not at all. You’re not getting anything done

2 am in Florida, Feds including ICE agents quietly line up outside a quiet, unassuming white import shop. They place chains on the large overhead door which are firmly attached to the back of an acquired MRAP. With a solid tug and wail from the diesel powered behemoth, it rips the entire door and parts of the wall

Sunbeam- Do you think we will get noticed?

It’s NART (or N.A.R.T., properly). It was Le Mans-winner/Ferrari importer Luigi Chinetti’s North American Racing Team.

“has collected about 40 of them over recent years as a way to cope with the death of her son”

Maybe it’s just me, but this sounds like an absurd way of “coping.” Might as well go all the way:

Because, if it were nine feet wide, it’d be an S-9.

Bring me an Evora and a Sawsall, and I’ll take 33 pounds off for a mere $100.

Thank goodness he's ok - it would have been really ugly if he dyed.

Or if you understand the principle and are smart, you position yourself ready to ‘zipper’ very early, and then proceed patiently all the way up to the merge point where you finally then actually execute your very well planned lane change. No-one told you to kamikaze-lane change at the last minute.

You sir, have just won the internet. Fucking all of it. I can’t give the amount of stars that you deserve, so please take this coupon instead.

Let’s hide all the wheels!

We all have a particular car that we like and enjoy! I, for instance, like the Maserati Khamsin. What about you?

Don’t make the clutch slip? You keep emphasizing this advice that really doesn’t make sense. The clutch is always going to slip a little bit. That’s inherently how a clutch works. If the flywheel engaged the transmission with no slip, you’d be spinning tires and blowing out gears constantly. I think you meant to say

Do I need an orange-over-black Hakosuka Skyline GT-R in my life? No. Very technically, I can survive without it. A sad, hollow survival, but survival nonetheless.

I’d daily a DAF anyday.

Nope. tow that mother. Make it as inconvenient as possible on the driver. I wouldn’t even fine them, just make it a PIA to get it back. Why? Because 99% of the time, they parked illegally purely for their own convenience.

the car is the sovereign property of it’s owner and cannot simply be confiscated by the state and held for ransom.

Literally, gone in 60 seconds.
