John, this is one of the first times I’ve seen it suggested to cook the meat before making the pie and going for the second cooking stage. Usually recipes and cooks, even Gordan Ramsey, just assemble the ingredients into the requisite pie solution and bake to desired doneness. This is wrong, you are right.

If you want…

If I’m not wearing flip-flops, I’m wearing Pilotis. I like the way they look, they are comfortable, and no hard angles in the heel means less wear to my floor mats. While the vitriol runs strong out of the elitist, hipster-fashion, Jalopnik headquarters; no one has taken notice of the various pairs I’ve owned over the…

Too poorly done to claim that pricepoint; not to mention the jeep itself isn’t in the best of shape.

If it were a minty Jeep with the swap done cleanly (no impact to passenger compartment, all instruments and controls working, and a full exhaust system to the rear of the car). It is also possible to mount an LS in…

I really like the idea of the Chevy SS, and put my money where my mouth was years earlier with the Pontiac G8 GT. I still prefer the styling of the G8, the SS and its Holden counterpart went soft with the facelift and though the interior quality was miles better, it didn’t look better than the simple lines of the…

I like the look but for 25k, I’ll take a stock and sorted C6 that starts with a superior suspension, superior engine, superior platform, and superior looks to this heavily modified S14. I say that as a fan and former owner of an extensively modified S14.

Emissions will still be out of spec due to the programming.

Only once.

Chrysler made this one too, it was called the Prowler and most people hated it (the engine had a lot to do with that).

This almost makes me wish I could afford a Ferrari -- first one they have made in awhile that has  captured me from a design standpoint.

Last ones I fancied were the 355 and the Maranello.

They were always nice cars that played it safe with styling while still being unique (plaid seats, who doesn’t love plaid seats?) but the first DSG and 2.0L weren’t impressive deployments in the Mk5, the Mk6 was a refresh that emphasized improvements to the interior but otherwise stayed the course. The current model…

They were indeed but I wouldn’t have considered them class-leading, which I’d comfortably say about the GTI today.

Up until the current generation, I’d have disagreed with you. As it stands the GTI may very well be the best performance hatch available. in today’s market

Any more pictures and details on the Beetle? It looks pretty savage in the snow with those simple wheels/large-looking tires.

While in many cases this would be a sound approach, you get a lot for the money with a Z06 that would be hard to implement and often times ruining any standardized classification if competing with the car.

Z06 gets a better cam, heads, intake, valvetrain, and dry sump oiling in addition to improved cooling. One could…

Don’t forget the red Loc-tite and correct torque spec. The only reason these fail is the bolts back out of the block, reducing the load capacity and exciting the risk of shear for the remaining bolts.

You know, this almost looks good for a Camry. I can’t wait to see the rest of it so I can go back to sleep out of the assured boredom.

Shots fired!

405bhp Chevrolet Corvette with 15.5 gallons of American lager in the rear? This is as American as it gets!


(I also spy the rear bits of an E36 M3, this driveway has class from a couple continents — I can’t speak to what looks like the saddest of sad Toyota Eggs behind it though)

Yes, FRC/Z06 for the win! (Yellow makes it better)

I think they are secretly working toward yet another re-brand into another barnyard animal as they attempt to further differentiate themselves from the Dodge family.
