I'm certain the museum could use a corporate sponsor in the future. You know, when Tesla becomes profitable.

The wheel mounted things seem like a poor idea to me. Ask Jezza bout that.

Next time the other half jokingly tells me he's going to trade my Jeep in on a nice station wagon, I'll send him a link to this and tell him to go for it.

They ought not have bought the Stigs.

Come by the Bay Area sometime. These are going to do well here if the Leaf is any indicator. I've honestly seen more Leafs day to day than I have Fiat 500's. It fits the bill here for the middle class types with multiple car households very well. Sure it won't work universally, but no car does. The market does support…

Hubby had a 1992 Fremont built Corolla when we met. Auto of course. When we turned on the AC (LUXO!) we called it the anti-turbo. He rolled the odo on it to over 200k when we finally got rid of it in 2003 as it was eating CV boots like candy and other miscellany repairs were eroding our faith in it. But 200k and no…

I prefer the yella Honcho from Twister.

Seriously. But the fenders are still kinda fubar'd for a JK in the new 'shopped pic. Not to mention on a JK the fenders and grill would be Velveeta style goo in a fire seeing as how they're plastic now.

Being a car nerd doesn't necessarily mean buying any or every car you oogle and salivate over.

Is it just me or is it awesome to be a car nerd these days? Sure we've got the insufferable hybrid phase of the industry to slog through. But my god, a 900+ HP mustang, FC Jeep Concepts, McLarens that don't cost a million dollars, sadistic new Lambo designs, Powerwagons, plucky little fast Fiats, hot hatches from Ford…
