This would be classified as a motorcycle under US regulations, and wouldn’t have to meet safety requirements. With 4 wheels it could never be released.

But then it’s a “car” and has to meet all sorts of pesky safety requirements, which will destroy its basic character. I think it looks awesome, and am all for it being sold here, as long as people keep the things off of the highways where they clearly have no business driving (much like Morgan 3-wheelers).

It’s cute and all, but $36,000? Not gonna happen, slim. 

regardless, the headline should match the information in the body of the article.

I feel like any article touting an early 2000s vehicle needs to be clear about this, so:

I just can't get past the looks. I'd pay the premium for the 3rd gen TL

Who can blame them? Shit gas mileage, higher insurance rates and ticket magnets along with hell-on-earth-parking, makes the smaller car superior.

So think about this then. The average age of a Subaru WRX buyer is 35, and their average income is almost $100k. Clearly, some millennials are doing fine, they just don't like muscle cars.  

Another correction: “I just bought one at age 19 but ran it into a tree on the way home from the dealer”

“Average” and “Outlier” are not the same.

Just google it. JD Power says median age is 35, and 2 out of three are millennials. So put that in your vape pen and smoke it.

It was hard to turn down. Ended up doing so because I am a small person and ultimately did not feel comfortable with the visibility out of it.

In before the "Correction-MY DAD bought me..." crap.

It couldn’t be that the world is far too complex to pin an overarching trend on a single factor or group, could it?

I have a suspicion that he wants it to 1) get in on future ocean front real estate and 2) to gain access to hundreds of millions of acres of eventually productive farmland. Of course there is also a wealth of untapped (lightly tapped) natural gas reserves, also. So while he touts his fake global warming bullshit, he…

Bingo. Cab back looks great, but less overhang is better. 

It looks slick but in the real world, it is needlessly long for anyone who drives and parks in the city. So many new cars seem to have unnecessary overhang. Hell, my girlfriend’s 2018 Accord is longer than my ‘18 4Runner. In fact, the car would probably look cooler if you cut 8" off the front and 4" off the back.…

I see a lot of commenters on here buying slow cars on purpose, for one reason or another. Even car enthusiasts have reasons to not buy the fastest thing. 

Even enthusiasts drive appliances. Because we’re also logical. 

Jalopnik averages somewhere around 10-11 million readers a month. A good chunk of them are enthusiasts, and those tend to be the folks that comment the most. But we have a large portion of readers who get these articles via newsfeeds, Facebook, etc... that aren’t “car people.”
