Besson is a master at showing us what we need to know in an enjoyable way instead of telling us. If he starts narrating it’s probably because it would take too long otherwise or has no entertainment value, like background voiceover or translating glyphs to get it over with, even then with an interesting matte or some

That is a surprisingly reasonable price for this thing! 

For this I will refer you to my comment on previous coverage:

I DISAGREE WITH YOU, SIR. 

He may BE a delusional maniac, but he’s OUR delusional maniac.

I have not, and will not, ever own a minivan. To gauge my vote, I checked Cargurus, and searched for ANY minivan within the largest footprint it would allow (200 miles from me), that was under 10k and under 50k miles.

Number of minivans found - 0.0. Bumped the mileage up to 60k and I found a few that looked pretty

You pick it up and carry it home.

Ever used technology that never fails? Neither have I.

When I lived in Chicago, I removed the stop light at Belmont and Central because it was slowing me down and damaging my schedule.

Fuck this guy. First, it’s extraordinarily unlikely that this is some rogue speedbump that damages normal driving cars. It doesn’t matter though. We live in a world with rules and you have to follow them. His motivation doesn’t meet shit, this is the same as taking down a stop sign because you don’t like it. Fuck you,

The Lincoln appears to be the Alderman’s since the license plate is RL 15 (Raymond Lopez is Alderman of the 15th Ward).

Speed bumps on residential streets are good, actually. I hope the city adds 5 more to replace the one he tore up.

Unpopular opinion, as someone who lives in a neighborhood and previously had an alley: Fuck this guy. His claim is nonsense. Either he drives like an asshole over that speedbump, making him a danger to his neighborhood, or he modified his car in such a way that it can’t go over a speedbump, when he lives in a spot

This is a car site, right? There’s no mention of the car he’s claiming is damaged. What is it? Is it a stock vehicle that is high-centering? Is it a slammed 350z that bottoms out at every curb and railroad track? Or is it a Minivan that’s bottoming out as he’s flying over it? It would actually give us some background

I’m bothered that the guy in your gif isn’t in the new one.

A lot of them are. A month ago I flew home to see my family. Me and my Brother rented the cheapest car we could find, a Chevy spark. Its infotainment system was where I think we’re going. It had a screen and some basic UI but it gave you options to choose your phone’s OS and when you did that your phone, whatever it

Sorry man, no credit for 20/20. The reception of the car at the time is what counts. No fair looking back 15 years later.

Here is my defense, culled from the Kinja sub-basement, circa 07/01/14:

I’ve been defending the PT here for years. I’ve posted links to the awards, the critical reviews, the fawning mentions by public and respected auto critics alike... basically there wasn’t a single thing the PT hadn’t accomplished except racing success and it still wasn’t good enough. “Some cars guys” can be sad,

I must agree completely with Mr. einTier! I have owned two of them: a base ‘01 and an ‘06 Route 66 Edition, both with manual shift. At a time when dealers were padding the price due to crazy demand, I managed to nab my first one for right about $14k. Sold it four years later for $10k.
Gotta be honest: I LOVED ‘EM!
