Whenever someone says "Little Bastard" I think of mid-90s college radio...

@arozzi: I read somewhere (wiki maybe?) that Soichiro Honda had a 67 Firebird and it influenced the design of the company's first sporting front-wheel drive coupe, the 1300.

Right color; Right gearbox; so what if one of the dash computers doesn't work?

The 70 cougar with its protruding nose is a bit cooler than the 69...

@GreenN_Gold: What about your mom? This has won me several beers in bars and almost started a few fights...

@TCInternet: is that a reference to Slapshot? My grandfather was an extra when they shot that movie. And is that some Johnstown PA in the pic? Sure looks like downtown to me.

@LPscuderiaSV: who is justin bieber?

@MikeTheRipper12: re:sports dads: It happens at all competitive levels - I work at a concert venue that has band battles sponsored by a record company and the stage dads are as bad or worse than the sports dads — probably because the venue sells beers and encourages people to drink. I cannot tell you how many stage…

This twatwaffle is the epitome of "Upper-Middle-Class-Self-Entitlement." These are the same people who think that they understand the nuances of macroeconomics because they read Ayn Rand in college. These are the kind of people who believe that white, college-educated people with six-figure salaries are oppressed in…

@pauljones: I had a 95 SL1 and loved it. It went through 3 years of college and 4 years of pizza delivery and it took everything with aplomb (while getting 35 mpg) before it died with 250k in 2001.

@gman1023: FWIW, when I was broke and needed a car, my '91 dynasty was totally the shit. It was roomy, drove smoothly, and insanely reliable for a leftover stretched-out k-car. But I never had any pretenses that it was anything other than a refrigerator-white appliance to get me back and forth to work.

@pauljones: Not so much anymore in my experience. In the 90s, it was a big thing because they were as good or better than the competition and the dealers were extremely customer-oriented. Then in about 2000 or so, they became just another GM division selling outdated small cars and most owners of original S-series…

pic related. Everyone I know who has purchased any iteration of WRX makes the car an integral part of his personality. I had a friend at work a few years ago who got a promotion and traded his Altima for a new WRX STi and it seems that he became the car. Every conversation he started began with "So I was driving…

@vavon205: 7598cc and about 130hp? wow that's a huge 4 cylinder

Pipe all the way. You could buy three or four good gas versions for the same price. The gas versions can also get over 20 mpg on the highway and not struggle to maintain 60 mph - especially if you find a 2.6 injected model. I like troopers. They're simple and rugged but when I can find a dozen gasoline-powered…

Keep in mind that the study was done in Iowa. Marijuana does affect your reaction time but with completely flat roadways arranged in perfect 90-degree grids, I'm sure that the drivers in the study had plenty of time to avoid oncoming cattle.

Any shots of the interior? At least Spyker has a tendency to make a nice interior to offset their (IMO) unattractive exteriors.

The Gen IV WS6 has been mentioned a few times but I'd rather see the Firehawk's — it's a bit cleaner and nothing needs four nostils.

I used to work in the call center for On*Star. This feature has been available for onstar subscribers (using MapQuest) since late 2007. However, using Google Maps (more trusted even though almost all of the directions come from navtech GIS and one other company) is a nice piece of work on Ford's part. Also, I like…

@Whitetrashsteve: Also, back on topic, the guy in the Bimmer was a total douchenugget. A lot of them are. There's a guy in my apartment building that has an E36 M3 who will sit in his car and rev the engine at all hours of the night. I went down to the parking lot at 2 this morning and he had the hood open and was…
