Shitty sexist people; sexist shitty people.

Ok, so it’s not the first. That’s why I had the question mark.

First life saved by a halo? I have no doubt this would have been horrific without one, just not sure if this is the first crash where one came into play... and so dramatically.

The Corvette has had no problem putting Porsches on the trailer at the track for decades (especially $ for $), but on the sale’s floor, things are different. Few people cross shop high end sports cars. No Porsche guy is going to suddenly go Corvette and vice versa, no matter what the numbers are.

It’s the same as when they scream for gun control while surrounded by armed bodyguards.

We missed you, welcome back.

And that’s fine, very Jalop even. My statement wasn’t absolute; it was just to highlight the fact that while any car can be pressed into “family car” status, some are just not the most practical choice. This new 911 is in the group at the bottom of the list, but the Camaro and Mustang aren’t that much further up.

The LATCH system is government mandated, which no more makes it a family car than a Camaro or Mustang.

1989 Nissan Sentra... wagon.

Thanks for clarifying, and that makes some sense, but I think it would still be disconcerting to have the tach and speedo run different directions, at least after being so used to the traditional way. Old dogs, and all. Is this SOP for all/most left hand drive? 

Don’t feel too bad, I thought the same thing through most of the video and once the bag went off didn’t really pay much more attention to it. But then seeing the bit about his condition, way at the bottom of the article, thought “Oh, well that explains it; should have put that bit up towards the top of the article.”…

That tach... that stupid damn backwards sweeping tack... Is that a thing on fancy cars?? That would drive me insane. Nevermind $2k for a fob, I’d have to spend probably $10k to have that fixed. You know, if I could actually afford an AM to begin with.

Are the Hello Kitty ears standard, or an extra cost option?

Are You Rad Enough To Go?

I may be some kind of driving masochist. I actually get a kick out of driving in dense cities and in the worst choices of vehicle for it. I have taken both my heavily modded 72 Vette with side pipes and crew cab z71 Silverado around Manhattan and through the area (I grew up on L.I., now in Va. and still go up semi…

Kinja being wonky?!?!?! Say it ain’t so!!! Somebody feed Nibbles!!

My semi-educated guess is that there are several factors contributing to the odd design. The main ones being that they are probably using the heat from the engine/coolant to warm the fuel for better evaporation which would lead to more potential power with the evaporative carbs they were using. That probably led to…

We all know there are rules, not sure why you would think we don’t. The issue is that THAT method is what they went with. Especially given the safety implications of having lug nuts dropping/bouncing all over the place followed by the car running over them, shooting them out the back of the car from the burnout…

Seriously??? God, NASCAR is dumb... With all the ways that can be solved and improved (with no removed lugs bouncing around to be driven over), glue is the one they go with??
