Nice troll dudemar. I feel sorry for you.

This man should be nominated for a Jalop recognition award.

The Fiat 500 Abarth doesn't have a single fake vent on the front end: ait intake in the badge area, radiator in the middle, and twin intercooler inlet/outlets on the sides. (The rear end is another matter, all kinds of fakery going on back there.)

I really like that slammed GMC on Alcoa's.

Of course a little internet searching can find an AC/DC adapter with the right voltage and amperage rating to match the given battery powered item, then it's just a matter of soldering the wires in place and you're all set.

Trifoglio Nero?

Excellent use of Jeremy Brett as Holmes. Thank you sir.

Yup, good time to pick one up. It's a spunky little thing, especially if she gets the manual trans. The 36+ combined mpg I get is great too.

The current Mazda 2 does seem to have a better profile, but overall I like the new one (I have a 2011 as my DD). A different set of wheels/tires plus a slight drop in ride height would help though.

Good eye. The 500L is pretty ugly, but I don't see why that is an issue for the Renegade.

I've heard the same from many people about those 7th gen Civic Si's. I plan to get one to replace my daily driver when it finally gives up the ghost.

Agreed! They would be stupid to not make a proper halo sports car with the BRZ chassis. Drawing some positive attention from consumers is typically good for sales. I'll buy one the minute they do... unless Mazda makes a more compelling Miata in the meantime.

Anyone notice the gauge cluster in the featured picture? The tach on the current 500 Abarth is hard to see in my opinion, but this version seems to have more contrast. Ah, well, the car is so loud you can shift it by ear anyway.

Exactly. This seems pretty obvious. Halo cars generate buzz and help draw people in to the dealerships. Sales and marketing guys know this, but somehow this idea is lost on the accountants and corporate decision makers.

If I could find a Kazoo for a good price I'd be all over it to replace my daily driver. Great small mid-size car.

Good list. The problem is it can be difficult finding a Volvo 850/V70 or a Jeep Cherokee (4wd only) with a manual transmission. I've been hunting for both of those vehicles for over a year to replace my beater car but I have not had any luck finding a decent example with a stick. I'll either have to settle for an…

Consider yourself fortunate compared to those of us up in the Northeast. My Abarth hasn't left the garage since December. Spring can't get here soon enough.

Proper.

I'm not in Florida unfortunately, so I guess I better start downing some wine.

Good luck man, you'll have a blast. Btw, I love that wine cork backstop for your dartboard, I may steal that idea.
