You’ll get over it. Probably move on to further professional success and new-found personal satisfaction. Likely have a long life and die with friends and family present. It’s going to be great.... just a little stumble in the road, that’s all.

Raph, buddy, you’re doing the wrong kinds of drugs if you think that hideous thing looks remotely good.

rather than buying new safety seats every year.

Which is why theseAOTD slideshows are such a joke. What possible relevance does a car that cost $5k 17 fucking years ago have to the question of what the best $5k cars are today?

You know what was an awesome car for less than $5k 50 years ago? A Hemi Superbird. Why don’t we put that on the list, too?

Jesus Christ, do you people hear yourselves? Crush their cars? 20K fines? Felonies are okay? Not to mention the numerous insults to their intellect, age, masculinity etc....
