Did you guys even drive these cars? Or did some marketing exec give you a list of things they wanted you to say?

You made a post stating how this was a great deal (while delicately qualifying your post) but failed to do minimal research which would have shown there was more damage than led on by the seller. Instead, when other jalopniks point out that the salvage title probably indicted the damage was worse than …
Gets worse...
So you know have a carfax and pictures that show the airbag did go off which is contradiction to the seller's ad. You seem to downplay the serious issues that people have brought up, Tav. Are you just defending your poor example or do you have some financial interest in posting these ebay ads?
Dead Like Me.
Do you even has to ask this on jalopnik?
Florio gets paid to toe the NFL company line so he will say dipshit things. Deadspin should really be worried if these type of "journalists" ever left because it has built its business model on shitting on other dipshits.
Out of curiosity...Does The Concourse write these pieces based on the musical tastes of the author? I get the feeling, and I apologize if I am wrong, but these pieces read like planted marketing by A&R's trying to create an underground/viral vibe.
Yet the consensus is that the BRZ/FRS is underpowered which is why few Jalopnik Bro or Broette will buy one. That is double standard/rose colored glasses stuff.
Since 2001.
Nope...They are rolling around in 10 year old beaters lamenting the fact that some newly announced car doesn't have a minor option because they want it in 10 years when the car is affordable to them.
Jalopniks won't admit it but they are closely related to the "because JDM" enthusiasts that they look down upon.
Some Marketing Executive somewhere just got their wings. Or is high on so much coke that it gave him wings...whatever you get the picture.
The real reason Jalopnik bros and broettes will not admit to:
Rich Gang breaking up? Damn, My Hitta.
I had a 1990 GT 5 Speed as well. The car had all the typical issues (faded paint, exhaust manifold crack, etc..) but man did I love driving that thing. Those oscillating air vents were awesome!
Not one single 1st gen picture? The 1st gen had a 2.2l turbo making 145 hp and 190 ft/lb torque with a 5 speed transmission.
Jalonik wagons lovers are the hipsters of the automotive world. "Anti conformist" who all look the same. Very rare that they use the utility of a extra storage space but they get to thumb their noses at every Camry and Accord.
It is not that I am infallible human being. When I was sixteen I had a small fender bender where I hit the car in front of me because I was distracted (tight alley...looking to side to not hit a parked car). That was my fault for not paying attention to road in front of me and only had myself to blame. I was lucky…
Or you could just pay attention to the road in front of you instead of looking at your iphone while driving. If you crash into some one in front of you it is because you were following too close or were not paying attention.
