Mercedes should just say “screw it”, we are just going to F*** with google and our customers and rename their entire product like with absurd labels.

Jalopnik commenters like clean designs. Case in point, look at how many Jalops bought the last-gen Civic Si.

This is exactly why it’s perfect. People hating on this car either don’t really understand what it’s about (being totally, unashamedly loud and boisterous) or are too old to be in the market for it anyway.

I have no illusions about any added power, but I really do like the louder induction noise at WOT with an aftermarket intake.

Honestly, it depends on how it looks with the wheels. I’m fine with purely aesthetic paint mods.

So are dive-planes and front-splitters dumb on a RWD? Where downforce is helpful isn’t dictated by the drive-wheels. If you have a FWD car that has mid-corner oversteer issues, downforce at the back is helpful.

That guy who brought out the stock Peugeot 206, that’s brave. Dictionary diffinition of bringing a knife to a gun fight.

Reasons to not move to Texas:

Jalop: “I hate lazy, boring automotive design. Make something interesting...”

I don’t know what Lexus dealer you’ve been to but the ones I’ve been to have been superb! I’d say even better than my Audi dealer.

If they thickened the stripes, sure.

Where can you get an STI for 32k? Show me this magical land.

Make Jalopnik about the cars again.

Happiness is for Hellcats.

Not all OEM’s do that, Toyota and Lexus have $1,000 off any vehicle as far as I can tell. Funny how the domestic OEM’s are the most restrictive on helping our military folks.

Martini brings so much potential for a race car livery, and all Williams can do is a white car with some stripes.

Then toss some thumbtacks on the seat.

You are missing the point, dear reader. OF COURSE I could buy an EK9, if I settled for a 96-98, I could go more like $6K. I even actually have the money to do so.

Ugh. There is a lot to complain about re: way women are treated by hospitals and ob/gyns, but the only time it is appropriate to use the term "birth rape" is IF SOMEONE RAPES YOU WHILE YOU ARE GIVING BIRTH.
