I’m 6'4" and have driven Delicas and never had a problem with headroom. Might be an issue of the Chamonix sunroof. Or the tester has a weirdly shaped body. Little stubby legs and an enormously long torso.

The swivel seat is so useful when you are kitting up for skiing or chilling at the beach or whatever. Plus if gives you extra space for long items, like bikes.

Would there be more Delica space eggs??

Using cruelly deformed people in car ads to over emphasize car size is not just a commie thing. These munchkin Dodge jockeys probably had voices like they’d been inhaling helium.

I’m already thinking about the end result of that. Ssssspic-Aiiiiii.

A LOT nicer versions available for $85 to 110K range. A LOT NICER, they even vacuumed the carpets and cleaned the engine bay. I’m guessing that cars condition reflects how well it has been maintained. As in NOT at all.

Who buys these things?? $77,000 is an enormous chunk of change for a vehicle. Especially one that gets fuck all mpg and despite it ENORMOUS size has not rear seat legroom to speak of. 

Let’s try analyzing it with the colour out. This version has only melanin identical people (MIPs). MIP1 accuses MIP2 of stealing her phone. MIP1 is freaking out because, that’s what MIPs do when they think their phone has been stolen. Being a fiesty Latina MIP she gets all emotional and lashes out at anything that…

“If you’re one of the first to purchase, you’ll also have the chance to build the car in Tipo 184's workshop—with Anstead’s helping hand.”

My wife’s MASERATI broke down. I wonder how much the dealer will CHARGE HER for the repairs.

It’s a smart move. Chinese consumers are not quite the same as our consumers. There are a fair few who want to be upwardly mobile and trendy with their SUV, but still have haul the occasional pig off to market, or pick up and transport 150,000 wholesale doo dads for their Uncle, three fingers Chang’s manufacturing…

I was idly thinking about a colossal F-350 I saw with the fold out bed assist ladder, and was wondering if ‘electric lift assist’ was in the cards. An elevator. It’s not that far fetched.

Not really seeing the thrill of sitting in a car (sitting, is the new smoking) for pre-expense income of $2,500/mo. and an apparently opaque payment structure. Definitely not a ‘do this till I retire’ job. BUT as a side gig I can see the appeal. It must be a great way to sell drugs.

97 !! What a man. 11.5 kills. Fastest man alive. Trophies won. Highways named after him. Indira Gandhi blew up his Beechcraft in Pakistan. 4 kids. 2 wives. 10 men’s lives lived to the full.

I’m currently on a personal mission to buy the world’s most comfortable car* Jalopnik already knows what I’m talking about. Toyota Alphard. Not the executive business class seats in the article, but one level down in cloth, not leather. Everytime I sit in any one of the seats entire body says “Ahhhhhhh!!!” Big, softly…

Try using a Japanese car configurator. As in the Japan market configurator (right click translate to English, or just yell “Speak English man!!” at your computer.) They do tell you the exact price, but they do NOT have a modern configurator where you can click on colors and rims, interior, etc. I have a friend in the…

Yeah!! Helluva way to make a crust. After the 08 economic collapse bus loads of Chinese were driven around the USA buying up distressed properties as rental investments. It was madness, actual auctions on the bus as it drove past properties. Only problem was most properties were in neighbourhoods where you’d need a…

Hemmings has a few anomalies like that. Saw an Aston Martin (71 V-8 Vantage for $525,000) and thought it seemed a bit optimistic. It’s a collector car for sure, but not that collectible, not quite yet. Sure enough, you can get an equally nice machine for $180,000 to $200,000 on less high end websites. SO it could be ha…

Guhhh! Stick it on a rotisserie, sandblast it, paint it, LS swap, ask yourself why you make bad choices in life when you could take half the money you’re going to spend on that turd-mobile and buy that sweet, sweet white Cadillac with pink interior for half the money.

I was looking at a used Panamera the other day. The dealer plopped this 3 page questionnaire in front of me and said we’ll go look at the car after it was filled out. I pushed it away and politely said “no thanks.” (3 pages?? work info, income history, kids ages, married divorced, fuck off) Anyways we looked at the…
