The front is not bad at all, but the back is a mess of cuv lines wings and empty inserts. They should of extended the roofline, like a Mazda 3, and called it a day.

There is nothing worse than a machine that does not get a chance to do what it’s meant to do. Why have the thing outlive you and have no beautiful memories of the drive?

Come on, where else are you going to get a show along with lighting the path for you?

It only goes to show that these guys do amazing things riding around on two contact patches that can’t be wider than a dollar bill. Or is it even smaller?

I hate to agree with you on this one because I like Stef’s articles, but you are right.

All of Oklahoma. On a drive from San Antonio to Chicago it was the worst. There was a 50 mile stretch that made a thwump sound every three seconds at 80 mph. Thank God I crossed at night.

What you call the death wobble is actually a feature to help you hit higher mpg numbers. Going 80, wobble doesn’t think so.

Is there anything a small block Chevy can’t power? I bet our first intergalactic spaceship will have a small block somewhere on board.

I wonder how it will affect the cars? Will it slow them or destabilize them? Seems like shark fins are going on lots of race cars, it must do something for the aero.

When you have lived here all your life it’s the only speed you know. Last year, I was driving up to Chicago and wondered why everyone else wasn’t doing 80? Anything less and it just feels slow. By the way, Canada has a lovely road from Michigan to Niagara falls that the locals seem to think is the Autobahn, did I…

I spent all weekend at Moto Gp, I know the feeling. I’ve spent a large chunk of the past two days saying “it is the highest horsepower per dollar I can afford.” Here I come motorcycle safety course.

I’m totally with you on this. F1 has lagged behind other sports in the digital age. For the most part, everything F1 has been behind a giant Bernie pay wall. Well, that and I’m sure thousands of takedown notices.

Good point, I hadn’t thought about that. It seems like Hamilton is being alot more positive than I’m used to seeing him. The podium interview threw me for a loop. I didn’t expect for him to be so welcoming of competition from Vettel or to praise him on the drive.

I don’t think Hamilton is set for an easy year. His radio transmission asking why Vettel was was cutting the lead, after ham had changed to new, made it seem like he was worried.

Could be a fun case of driving a slow car fast, but 205 sounds fine. How else are you supposed to learn how to heel toe at less than insane speeds?

Just keep it coming. This might just be the last batch shit insane factory car that is not a hybrid and I want to know every detail. Like: can I get it in mauve? Are the valve stems chrome? Will the leather be Corinthian? I must know.

I’m all for bringing back the sound, but what I really want are refueling stops. It would bring back some real drama to pit strategy.

This is what I love about jalop land. I’ll admit I followed your link and learned a few new things. Thank you.

I really want to see stats on how many people the regulation has actually saved. Yes, I get that it might be a jerk move to question a move towards safety, but are they making a regulation that is unnecessary and adding cost and complexity?

Is it just me, or is Toyota on a roll?
