If your subscription lapses, there should be an immediate and obvious indicator that your vest is useless. Some kind of giant red light that blinks at you and a horrible buzzing sound when you put it on to let you know it’s not gonna do shit in a crash.

Clarkson nailed it when he said the backside of the Crossfire looked like a dog during a moment of defecation.

My wife wants one. We love Cadillacs and she thinks the Lyriq is beautiful. Me - not so much. (But I do like that light show you get when you approach with the key) I told her it’s two wheel drive and she thankfully soured. 4WD is really nice to have in winter and she refuses to do without it.

My dad had a 1979 L-82 Corvette. Taught me to drive stick on it. The guy he bought it from raced it, so it had some “tasteful” mods. It was quick, it made loud proper noises and GOD do I miss it. I occasionally daydream about restomodding a C3 and was planning on getting an 1982 model year for the lift up glass in the

The Ferrari 288 GTO. The world has Group B racing homologation requirements to thank for this absolute monster of a car. I won’t bother comparing specs, except to say that it will give today’s best a serious run for their money. If it were possible to style a car to look like it has James Pumphrey's ‘buff horses’,

China’s economy exploded over the last 50 years. Their economy is centrally planned. The cost to build HSR from NY to LA is ridiculously prohibitive considering the lack of demand. It’d be the Concorde on the ground. Ditto NY to Chicago, LA to Vegas, etc. China has a billion more souls. HSR with scheduled service

America is not really ready for this kind of action.

Years ago I test drove a Lexus IS and I tried to input a destination into the nav system while the car was on surface streets. The dealer told me you have to be in park. I immediately drove back to the dealership and bought an Acura TL (05, 3rd gen, great car) and loved it for over a decade. Before Android and iPhone

What makes you think the driver actually gets those tips?

Seems?

Came here to say the same. When you going to ask that much money, it should at least appear to be properly sorted. 

I’ve had a few experiences like that. Simple goodwill gestures like that go a very long way. I make it a point to do business with companies who treat their customers this way and I try to do the same for my customers.

I have a Miata with a turbo kit from Flyin Miata. My wife and I took a road trip from Chicago to Indianapolis and found ourselves overheating and limped into a rest stop. I noticed some antifreeze leaking and some smoke, so I called for a tow and continued our trip in a rental car. The tow truck took it to a dealer

I have two Miatas - one of this vintage, the other a few years newer. Simply put, the ask on this one is too high. Yes, the BRG may become a collectable, but the cost to repair this one to the condition doesn’t make it worth the ask... yet.

My dream car is a Ferrari 288 GTO. Since the day I first saw it, I wanted one. What’s changed for me in the 35 years since that day is my definition of a car. This may sound like sour grapes - and perhaps it is - but what is the point of dwelling on a dream car that could easily be redefined as drivable art?

That GIF! Have a star.

This. If you own a car in NYC (or any other city hostile toward cars and spaces are scarce) you learn to not care that much. Or you have off street parking and possibly a second car. 

I bought a universal velcro headrest mount for tablets. Keeps my kid entertained for hours on long drives. It was either that or plunk down 10k for the factory system. Granted, that factory system included rear seat climate control and I could open the tailgate by waving my foot under the bumper, but hey - you gotta

Yeah, I count on Torch for all my obscure car facts.

Say what you will about his financial decisions. At least everything Tracy gets his hands on eventually runs. And in the big scheme of things, not a lot of money was burned.
