You’re an ICU nurse? Today, the question isn’t what car you should buy, it’s what car we should buy for you.

370Z - Sorry Z folks, it hurts me too....

The new Silverado.

I generally prefer Ford when it comes to trucks, but yeah, their new interior is a huge step backwards. The lower in trim you go, the worst it gets.

The last of the US Spec Fiestas are both ugly and low quality. Why does it have a full number pad? Who Knows! Why’d they make it impossible to replace when it barely qualifies as infotainment? Fuck You, that’s why! No soft touch anything, just super soft plastic that’s easy to put deep scratches into.

Leave it to Jalopnik to cry out for buttons when their isnt any, and explode when theres too many... w/e

Hard to get worse

You can fit golf clubs in a NSX, can’t do that in a ferrari, lambo, etc.

You realize that NO ONE had an all aluminum car when the NSX was made, right? It was the first for production vehicles, and it’s driveline was the first to use titanium components.

Comments like these are how I know the current NSX will be considered an absolute classic about 20 years from now. 

It’s not supposed to be like the old one - it’d be aggressively stupid if the new NSX was still rocking an n/a V6 and a manual transmission in the 21st century. But it absolutely was built in the same vein as the original NSX, and splendidly so. The fact that it’s a sales flop or whether anyone will want it 20 years

I like to point out that the original NSX has several computers in it, which is sort of funny for something considered an analog hero. ECU, TCS, ABS, SRS, EPS (on some), security, automatic climate control...

THANK YOU. These cars are supposed to be eXperiments in what the company is capable of doing.

I once saw a guy in a BMW use his turn signal. Hand to god! 

You are wrong, ma’am. OBJECTIVELY WRONG! These billboards are a wonderful cultural icon of I-95, and should be respected as much.

I know how fun it is to hate on something, but let’s be honest for a moment..

What’s the difference between H20i and a hardware store?

No.

There is only one proper Jalop answer to this.

My personal favorite

Chrysler ME Four-Twelve without a doubt.

Last I knew Chrysler used a prototype in their SRT driving experience. It was apparently close to production too, but got nixed because Mercedes was upset that it was better than the SLR in almost every way.
