This is a garbage click bait post. Is Z4 the hot car of the week that jalopnik needs its SEO score boosted for? What makes it more promising than the last Z4, which was attractive, had similar amounts of power, a manual transmission, and was... heavy and not that great. It didn’t sell well. Nor did a cheaper, lighter…

I disagree with branding it a “fix” in quotes because it decreases fuel efficiency...

The weight distribution of the accord is 60/40. In regards to steering feel, have you driven a modern BMW? Not good.

I used to see one of these pretty frequently in my elementary school parking lot in the 90s on the other side of the state (Pittsburgh to the west, Philly to the east, Alabama in the middle). It belonged to someone’s grandpa or step-dad, and it looked sad back then parked among the shiny new SUVs that everyone was…

What do you bet they drill the bumpers for the plates?

My wife wanted a new Passat in 2001. You know, the one with the round looking taillights? I think it was actually called “New Passat” for some reason. She had a 1997 Civic HX that she wanted to trade (weren’t 90 Hondas the best!?).

1) 10 years old Wisconsin car, the bottom of the car is most likely in the same shade of orange/brown as the lug nuts, if you follow my drift.

I like the part where you said you were going to get to the bottom of this eternal question and then proceeded to get the bottom of jack shit.

Could it increase wear to your engine? Eh, maybe!? Could it decrease mileage? Who knows! Will it decrease performance? Yes, but, no shit.

No matter which way you look at it, the R8, despite being a cool car, is nearing 10 years old, making it one of the oldest supercars currently on the market. You can keep putting new faces on it and updating the engine, but it’s still the R8. The Gallardo has been replaced already, for crying out loud. Fresh R8…

Gawkmodo lost all their proof readers in the Hogan lawsuit. I hope he’s treating them well.

Thats the real trick, brands like BMW are built on enthusiast credibility. Switching strategies and focusing on mainstream tastes can work in the short term (it did for BMW 10 years ago) as companies can ride the coattails of their reputation but make enough silly crossovers and baroque luxo-barges and the credibility…

Yeah, but in just two or three short years depreciation will knock it down to 15k.

Can we agree that the four regular door Minis look terrible?

I think it looks good and the new engines sound really great but...why does the tacoma still have a 278/265 hp/lbs-ft with basically the same engine?

They definitely have a lot more in the country than they did prior. The airbase near Latakia is effectively new if I remember correctly, and there are Russian ground troops there now. Not to mention the S-400s have been moved into the country (which are significant compared to the older systems the Syrian regime had…

As others have said diesel does better when fuel is more expensive. If one car does 20MPG and one does 25 but costs $10K more you’d probably get the first if fuel is cheap and the second if fuel is expensive. Europe has much higher fuel taxes and hence the fuels cost a lot and cost the same amount, roughly, so Diesel…

Agreed. My takeaway was that he liked a 40 aspect ratio tire. For my vehicle, that would be a 17" wheel, not 18".
