Those buttons are terrible! 

The car is goddamn amazing, but sad trombone on the price.

I bet they are white cars. A coworker has a 2015 Hyundai and the white paint is peeling off in sheets. He said Hyundai refuses to repaint it, claiming that “it doesn’t affect the value of the car.” Like, for fucking real?

An ex-girlfriend’s father had a mid-life crisis and bought himself a C5 Z06, black on black with the six speed. He let me drive it around the mountains near Asheville and it was sublime. I’m not a Corvette guy, but it was a sweet car for sure.

That’s not really an explanation since just about every RWD car has a shifter directly connected to the transmission.

The 7th gen Civic had a weird one, but it’s at least pointed upward like normal. And it’s FWD so I guess it makes sense.

My parents, after the kids left home, became a Mini household for some reason. They own 2 at the moment, and have had many more. They go on Mini rallies around the southeast. They went to England and rented a Mini for an England rally. My mom got a tattoo, her first, to match the graphics on the side of their car.

Man, that shifter is weird!

The only advantage this piece of shit has over a 10 year newer Leaf is looks.

Are you fuckin’ serious? West Germany was clearly a different country. Like someone else said, you’d definitely say “Western Germany” in this case.

Cadillac ELR.

It’s 100% reversed in Europe. Just try to get an automatic rental.

It would look 10x better if you took about 5" out of the center. Take it out of the grille below the logo, that extra tall fog light and the gap between the fender arch and the character line.

The fold-down jump-seats of an extended cab pickup truck. Doesn’t matter, make or model. They are awful.

Boca Fiesta in Gainesville, FL.

I saw them in Wilmington, NC in 2009. Was probably the best live show I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen them a handful of times since then.

Get Jalopnik to pay for it.

Neoplan was launched in West Germany in 1935 by Gottlob Auwärter.

I don’t think the Gas Guzzler Tax is enough for this rolling monument to excess. It’s gross on every level.
