    I think it’s a combination of harsh quotas leading to low-quality pieces and spillover from Gawker’s sister outlets: The Root, Jezebel, and Deadspin that focus on drama. An example is the tweets from some girl about Elon Musk. It was just Twitter drama that is about a car company CEO. It’s not car news, but it made it…

    I rented a Fiat Punto in Ireland in 2012. I am comfortable driving a stick, but I had only driven a few manual transmission cars and trucks. I pulled into a bank to exchange some cash.

    Japanese reliability does not equal Nissan reliability. 

    I saw an elderly couple topple out of a 4C. It would have been funny if I wasn’t waiting for them to finish to open my door. Ergonomics and ingress/egress were low priorities for the Italians who designed the 4C.

    Or any Nissan for that matter. My theory is that people who care about driving (by care, I mean pay attention and focus on the task) don’t buy cars like Nissans.
