You’re seriously asking why the Cadillac CTS-V Blackwing is a good car? On Jalopnik dot com? 

I’ll flash my lights at people thinking for sure their high beams are on. Nope.

One of the few occasions where I think this should be a 1 strike you’re out rule. Get caught doing it, get your vehicle impounded. Then you have to pay impound to have it serviced to be put back to factory specs before you get it back.

“Carolina Squat” is stupid, the whole “stanced” look is dumb (and not exactly safe either, right?), but I reserve my highest level of disdain for any vehicle with an excessively-loud exhaust and their drivers who insist on forcing everyone to hear their crappy vehicle and pay attention to them.

Any kind of lift on a full size pickup. Again, please see your doctor - there’s more effective treatments for micropenis.

It has been tried, they have tried a US top gear like what 3 maybe 4 times, same with the UK version since the trio departed.  They as a trio work SO well together.  Besides Bezos has Rings of Power to dump money into lol.

Clarkson is an asshole, no denying. But, the world is full of them. We tolerate way worse in our celebrities, politicians, and friends.

I think you’re way off on a lot of that. Maybe you didn’t enjoy the specials, but it’s been pretty clear that they enjoy doing them when they can based on interviews that aren’t just promo material. They certainly get on each others nerves on occasion, but that happens when your friends with people. There certainly…

This whole experiment probably should have ended when Clarkson physically and verbally assaulted a BBC co-worker in 2016...

Clarkson’s been in Top gear forever, but the new format in the early 2000s was peak automotive entertainment. I don’t think any other show will make cars come alive in the way that they did. Even my parents who are general car people, they like em but not obsessively like me enjoyed the heck out of that show.

This. Replacing simple V6 and V8 with the Hurricane is going to haunt them a few years down the road. It’s too soon to tell if the hurricane is going to be reliable or not, but it’s going to be so expensive to maintain after 5-10 years.

According to Google Maps it’s 35 miles to Needles. If your tank is empty (which is stupid in the first place, because Mojave Desert) you can get 2-3 gallons to get you to civilization.  If you’re going the other way and didn’t tank up in Needles, then I guess you pay the “stupid tax”.

Some dudes: “ after buying my 1 ton truck, 40 ft camper, ATVs, SXS, snowmobiles, jet skis, bass boat, ice house and Harleys, I can’t afford gas, damn commie liberals”

It’s nice to see only a $0.20/gal premium for premium, versus a $1.20/gal premium though.

Well, maybe not Jay Leno...

If I had stupid money, I would buy this and turn it into an RV. I don’t, so you can keep your comments about preserving automotive history to yourself ya haters. 

Considering how often the Mustang II front suspension has been used over and over by hot rods, street rods, and kit cars; the car has more legacy in the car world than it gets credit for.

100% NP, would prefer the earlier 2-smoke engine though. If you're gonna vintage Saab go full balls wild!

Irrational NP. I want this little weirdo, and I don’t even really understand why.

It’s always fun to see a car I never knew of in here. Learning is fun!
