Only 40,000 Lightnings and not all of them 2nd gen? The Charlotte Metro region must be a hotbed for these things as I see several every day on my commute - and they're not all the same ones.

As far as styling, I think the rear of the fourth-gen was better than the front. Without the spoiler it almost looked like an Alfa, and that's definitely something they got right - at least until 2000 when they widened the taillights. The fifth gen softened up a lot more - the fourth still had nice, firm seats and a…

This was a question of the day a while back. That said, I'll once again say the US-market Camry (not the Japanese 4-door Celica). Now I don't need to duck and cover although it's now a controversial subject due to the fact that the Camry is a bloated version of its former self. The difference between the 1984-86…

Actually it was an Ebay car that I bought while drunk. (i did not drive it drunk, btw) I didn't abuse it but it was a cheap car and the diff pin went. The front wheels seized while driving home from Wal Mart

Pontiac Aztek

AE82 Corolla Hatch and...

I'm not sure, exactly. He's working 60 hours a week since he graduated last year and he has a 6-speed TSX that he drives daily...

A friend of mine finally sold his 1996 Honda Accord EX 5-speed wagon. It was a very rare bird, being a 5-speed wagon, and had the perfect option list for me - finished in dark red with the 7-spoke alloys and tan leather interior. It only had 110,000 miles. It was his dad's car and then his in college and I would…

Update: Just picked up a running, white 1988 Volvo 240DL sedan for $600 It's white. I Believe I'll call it "White Trash" as it has no hubcaps and has a few dents and dings.

Since spring of 1995 - these vehicles are ones that I've owned or put enough money into and drove regularly enough that they were mine.

That picture, to me, looks like a fetal cobra.

Does it smell like fake tan? Do nu-metal songs about how the singer is so crazy start playing when you apply it? Or does it apply a yellow-and-chrome stripe to your armpits and start playing bling-bling hip-hop?

World War II is a treasure trove for these sorts of things. One of the VFW posts near me has a 1944 Cadillac similar to this one sitting outside.

It's a B-18 that crashed in a remote area on the big island during a training mission.

My mom has a Versa as a rental right now while her 250,000 mile Subaru is in the shop for a brake job. I rode in it this morning. It's roomy, slow, and incredibly boring. When do we get the 3-door, mid-engine, VQ37HR version?

Is it wrong that I was hoping to see the car had gone off a cliff in Hawaii and was wrapped around several trees?

NP for sure, especially because it's in rust-averse Nevada. The main issue with any old car here in the southeast is rust and nearly every VW of this vintage, in this condition, is either priced a few grand above this one or hiding severe body cancer. I was riding with a friend in his newly-purchased beetle about 3…

This is all I have to say about Glenn Beck's show being canceled.

If Jalopnik reported every single ass on the highway during rush hour there'd be nothing else to report.

I have, also, but that's because I worked for OnStar in the call centers, in every department including Emergency, Stolen Vehicle, and Welcome Call. People want peace of mind. I heard more than once "I'll never buy a car without it after the accident."
