This livery is my favorite.

I drove 262 miles from Fort Worth, Texas to Houston, Texas to check out an M Edition Miata. When I got there, the car was missing several fasteners in the interior, and the trunk was full of water, as in, the battery was literally sitting in a pool of water. The things they don't tell you in the online ads...

Perhaps the seller doesn't actually want to part with it?

Look at all that tumblehome. That's what America needs, another trucklet thingy that doesn't use its footprint well at all.

I was hoping for double A pillars, like the 500L.

There could be supercars for lightness, for handling, for utility, for flexibility, for fun — supercars should be available for almost every possible niche, and should do more than just showing everyone how rich you are.

Thanks for the input!

Interesting. Would you have considered the wagon if it was available?

If the 2004 Malibu Sedan is better looking than anything at all, it must be this.

I am 100% impressed by the exterior styling of the latest cars, but not so impressed by the interiors. You get just one analog instrument in the middle of the dash, and it's either the tachometer or the speedometer, depending on how you've equipped it. And the materials in the cargo area are an encouragement not to…

I still can't tell which is which until I'm right beside them. The new Mazda3s are a road-going "spot the difference" game., but I've always liked Mazda's hatchbacks over their sedans, with the exception of the first Mazda3.

Harsh. The 5 Series GT might be wretched, but the person to hate on is the one that decided America needed this more than the Touring.

Oh, it opens. It has a hatch in its hatch, so you can open the little hatch and not expose the passengers to a draft, or open the big hatch and...use the exact same space, but make sure your rear parcel shelf can still close over your junk. If you fold the rear seats down, you can get the same kind of pass-through…

The 5 Series GT is what is offered to Americans instead of the 5 Series Touring. The GT weighs almost 400 pounds more than the Touring and has less useful space. In a mockery of this deprivation, the GT has not one but two hatches on the ass end of its ugly profile.

Here's the car we could have had:

5 Series GT anybody?

Rifled exhaust tailpipes, huh?

It's not that ugly, it just looks like an insurance commercial's car; part Saab 9-3, part Chrysler Concord...but about a decade before either of those cars' styling had matured. It might also look a lot better with a side mirror.

Actually, that was pretty damn futuristic for contemporary passenger cars. I was 6 when my family rented a brand new Ford Taurus, and I couldn't look away it was so different.

Behold the Porsche 932
