I can’t own one as long as Jeep pays my paychecks, but I really hope this thing knocks it out of the park, and forces Stellantis and Ford to adjust thier lofty pricing on the Wrangler and Bronco. 

The physics-defying batter in the bowel was the most unnerving thing in it.

Likely, but you are going to have to open you your wallet a TON to get a tune on an Bentley.

Magic spoon.

A 1986.5 VW Scirocco with a 16-valve engine.  Never driven one, but the press was fawning over them.  

Nope, it needs to be a Fox-body Mustang:

They are all horrid. Porsche came to (or stayed in) their senses. Does make you wonder what mystery brew of drugs the designers were on at the time.

I didn’t grow up with X-Men: The Animated Series (I was around, but didn’t know about the X-Men until the movies started), but when this was announced, I started watching it. I’ve been slow about it, so I’m not done yet (just got through the Dark Phoenix episodes, so still a couple seasons to go). I don’t have the

You know what really stands out about this list? These cars all felt very different to drive or even ride in. Each car and even each manufacturer had its own character. You could actually feel, see, and hear different sensations and it was all over the map. You would certainly know if you were in an ‘80's CRX vs. an

Orange stain? Sounds like the new “presidential model.”

No, the Montero and the Dodge Raider were definitely in the US in the 80s competing with the Isuzu Trooper.

It was a bit of a drive, but used to go the only local one for the Macho breakfast burrito (grim but fun fact: I was eating one as hangover food while 9/11 was unfolding). Then it closed down suddenly, along with the gas station it

Del Taco is like Taco Bell, but with actual flavor and real shredded cheese.  Hopefully, they’ll build one nearer to me, as it’s quite a ways and I have to pass multiple Taco Bells every time I go there.

These f30 in-dash pop-out cupholders were a joy as well. So shallow that anything you put in there was at serious risk when accelerating.

That Taurus/Sable steering wheel... WTF?!?  This isn’t something that i was aware of.

The submission of that completely obscure detail about the mundane Ford Taurus steering wheel is part of what makes Jalopnik great.

Some honorable mentions:

That’s not the fault of the Flipper Zero. If this upsets you, you should be demanding that remote-controlled devices use encryption by default instead of sending every signal in the clear. Trading security for convenience should be a losing proposition, but technological ignorance means the market rewards that

The story of the Shaka reminds me of my first every safety lecture.

I make a point of throwing a shaka of thanks when I merge in Bay Area traffic. But I need a shaka button! A little digital sign would be awesome!
