Yeah, thirding chanter. Why they're playing it whilst driving is not clear.

I didn't realize the Sportage kept that nameplate in the States; I assumed it was Canada-only. As any kid who sat through grade-three history in Canada can tell you, "portage" is when fur traders had to haul their twenty-foot-long canoes out of the river and tramp through the woods with it on their heads. I guess the…

For those of you wondering, I submitted this and I called the seller to ask a few questions. I also offered to take some good, attractive photos (I'm a photographer by trade) but he turned me down. He claims it's an 8v and it needs an ECU to run, which is why it's stuck in a snowbank at present. If that turns you off,…

This is, without a doubt, my favourite Alfa that I could realistically own. I know, it's weird-looking, but as a long-time Jetta owner the lines are more familiar and comforting to me than mismatched. Seeing a 75 for sale at all up here is unusual; seeing one in such good shape is one in a million.

It's less visually intrusive but it's also less secure; if your goal is obscuring the owner's identifying information, undoing swirly filters like that is not terribly complicated. A black or white square might be less visually appealing but it fully destroys the data that was contained in those pixels before you…

Driving on the right side of the car is a bit hairy on undivided highways, but otherwise it's not bad at all. You just have to be extra aware of how much car is between you and the passenger-rear quarter when you're backing up.

The Alfa, without hesitation. The Rover is interesting in a clinical sense, but two words: Alfa. Romeo. That 159 makes my palms sweat.

I live in the northernmost large city in North America, about four hours from one of the best ski hills in the Rockies, and I love weirdo Japanese vans, so I'd like a 4WD, glass-roofed Mitsubishi Delica for Christmas. Ski trips ahoy!

There's been one of these adorable little things parked at the weirdo import lot a few blocks from my house for literally years. Best of all? It's got that ridiculous colour-shift paint and a wooden steering wheel. I can't explain how much I want it.

I'm voting for the Benz here simply because the Volvo is a thing in itself. The Benz is a canvas for the kinds of modifications I would feel slightly criminal inflicting on such a nice Volvo.

This is a live-action Akira I would watch the hell out of.

Y'all never driven a RHD car, have you? Disregarding that there's no fundamental moral dimension to it at all, driving on the wrong side on North American roads is pretty fun. Note also that the "wrong" side is the side Toyota and Subaru would have designed first since it's the side they're driving it too.

I'll second timeless; those headlights are virtually identical to the Sonic.

Consider me an idiot then. I'd take that 164 for a few grand less than asking.

Thank you. That's exactly what I was getting at. This is a symptom of something important in Poland, not just a "ha, ha, silly religious nuts" sort of thing.

I clicked this article hoping for a discussion of culture-bound syndromes, or comparisons of this phenomenon to similar outbreaks in the recent past, or something. Sure, this magazine seems like kind of a goof to an outside observer, but it's clearly rooted in something which is important to its context.

I was waiting for it to cut out partway through to let the exhaust note sing a bit. I don't mind music, but it should be used judiciously.

Pursuant to that, and I realize this is hard in a show-type situation with lots of people about, watch your framing re: things sticking up in the background. Also, just, uh...don't upload photos that aren't in focus.

I don't know, how fast is a unicycle with a lawnmower engine?

As a photographer, I have trained my eyes to be pretty sensitive to colour casts and colour information that isn't actually part of the scene I'm viewing. This illusion works, but I can switch it off if I focus on it. Super neat though. I love weird perceptual stuff like this.
