Any of the GM shitboxes built between 1978 and 1985 that came equipped with a diesel engine; like this Oldsmobile Cutlass.

The catacaysmically awful Oldsmobile Diesels. I'm not sure what all they were put int but the cutlass diesel for sure was a train wreck in mobile form. The engine was apallingly awful and shook out all its internals, the car had the build quality of an ice cream sandwich in the sahara desert, and the fuel economy…

The Cavalier was a tremendous shit box. That they're still on the road does not make this fact any less true.

Right? Really impressive watching the wheelwork from inside the car. Never overreacts, seems to be making minor corrections while the car's still in the air, anticipating the angle the car'll be at when he lands.

I'm gonna tip my hat to the team behind the Camry. Because you know there's amazing design and engineering talent, probably unlimited resources (a budget that could fund dozens of boutique supercar makers, all rolled into 1 car), and the success of one of the world's largest carmakers riding on your shouders. And you…

Possibly. I'm sure there is some logic to the rule, I just don't know what it is!

No, it's a new design and there are a few differences. Off the top of my head: direct injection, chain drive, takes regular gas instead of premium, slightly different hp and tq.

I learned the hard way to not to ever rubberneck. I was simply a passenger, so my attention did not need to be given to the actual task of driving. A collision had just recently occurred, dust still in the air from the off roaded vehicles. Since it was fresh, everyone was stopped, and after about 5 minutes, we slowly…

It ticks alot of boxes but the price is just a bit high... the auction claimed it to be a "collector's E30" but if I was a collector I'd want lower miles... so it seems like it would likely be a DD and at that price and sketchy ability to register I'm not seeing $13,500... $10k might be NP

I ordered an Autodromo Monoposto for myself last summer when they were available and was really blown away by the whole experience. Bradley's watch is second best in my collection only to the Omega Speedmaster given to me by my wife on our wedding day. You can tell he put a lot of work into the design and sourcing. …

I wish they were automatic though.

I wonder how many people are going under the covers in the dark to watch this like porn. Mastürburgring?

1. Why couldn't Pirelli get a rendering of a 2014 car for their slick CGI video?

As a software engineer, I think hacking an F1 car on the track could potentially be done indirectly. As stated, they transmit back to the pits all kinds of information. My first point of attack would be at that data stream. Modify it so it appears a critical part is nearing failure, forcing an unplanned pitstop. …

I know that the Manta always had to be set up really soft because it understeered horribly. There's a clip of Vatanen describing what it was like, which I can't find atm, but the progression of a corner was something like: brake, turn the wheel, understeer, keep turning, more understeer, get on the power, snap…

Walter Rohrl opinion on today's Monte.

"It has changed completely. Both the length of the event, and the number of stages. In Monte Carlo we had 47 stages, and 40 different ones. Today they have six or seven stages, that they do three times. That means today it is a little more like race driving than rally driving.…
