I remember seeing at SF. Seemed very cool for a Buick back in '99.

It looks a little bit sad with those downturned LED things and it appears that tears are welling up in its headlamps.

This one's got a Toyota 4-banger. Photo from a few years ago at Goodguys in Pleasanton.

Cool that a Swede would build something like this and cool that a lot of the greasy bits are Alfa, but it's got kind of a dune buggy look to it. And the fenders need to go… and those wheels… And I have no idea what's going on with the rear suspension. Maybe someone more mechanically-minded can explain what's happening…

I type in vibrato. My keyboard wiggles all over the place. My coworker tried pizzicato and all the keys came off.

Click the link! Jalopnik tested a euro spec Civic in the US and got 72mpg.

I liked it better before they changed the taillights

How do you deter people from doing such stupid thing? Public flogging? Make her get a forehead tattoo that says "I killed 3 people because of my idiotic, irresponsible behavior"? I have a dread feeling that one of these brainless people is going to kill me some day. Constant vigilance!

I don't see the logic in accusing people of being selfish when they're risking their lives to help other people. As far as I'm concerned, emergency workers can do whatever the fuck they need to do to get their job done and the only appropriate, though inadequate, response is THANK YOU.

Looks pretty similar to the Legacy to me.

The diagram makes it look like reverse is to the left of first but it's not really.

I have accidentally put my car into reverse instead of first a couple times. They're pretty much in the same position in the shift pattern and I guess I subconsciously pushed down on the lever instead of just moving it left and forward from neutral. I would hope I'd be a bit more focused and conscientious at the drag…

The emergency brake failed to stop the emergency. They really should call it a parking brake or, like Mitch Hedburg said, "emergency make-the-car-smell-funny lever."

It is in California.

He always did something interesting with the rear wheel arches. The shape of the Bravo's is also found on the Countach LP400 and a toned-down version was used on the Diablo.

It was a signature element of nearly all Marcello Gandini's designs of that period.

I do the same thing. "Oh, I'll have my brother look at that, he's been a mechanic for 25 years now." Which is true.

Seems to me like the Feds are doing automakers (and taxpayers) a favor with CAFE. Left to their own devices, corporate executives will maximize short-term profits (and personal bonuses) and then bail, leaving everyone else to get screwed by the long-term consequences (see 2008 financial crisis). US automakers were…

They'll be just as close to 100 as 54? So they will be at 77?
