More surprising is they still make the ELR. I actually saw one recently!

Yeah, I made note of it during the last video. Interesting, since California (where he lives) has some of the highest seatbelt usage in the country, at 96.2%.

I have noticed this before, which is why I am asking again : Why does Walker not wear the seatbelt/harness? That is not good. Other than that, this reminds me of Wangan Midnight.

This is a city bunny I encountered on a recent walk. It fled to an open garage.

This makes me happy.

Here's why he went no hands . . .

Do you not realise that this car has extremely specificly calibrated traction control to allow it to accelerate without spinning and brake in a straight line, demonstrated by the no hands. This is serious tech.

Webber managed not to total the car, so they finished second.

Competing on price is the wrong way to approach this market segment. People want something good, not something cheap. Moreover, you’re looking at a segment in which cars have fairly low production numbers, which makes cheap either guaranteed to produce something terrible, or impossible to produce something good.

The figures are from the original Chevy press release (see below) regarding the Eurosport RS, a concept shown in 1986. That 3.3L engine did not see production.

What kind of speech do you given when unveiling something like that?

There’s a shift between a 997.1 and 997.2. There’s a huge shift between a 997.2 and a 991.1. Hell, a 981 Cayman, equipped right, can make a 997.1 seem very out of date.

This is not a GTS. Remember, GTS is just an S with a standard set of compulsory options, a few other tweaks, and a slight discount. You can get GTS in a Carrera S with the X51 option, and make an S close to identical to a GTS by ticking the right option boxes. The 50AE was an earlier offered GTS with a different…

The electronic parking brake is in EVERY variant of the Boxster (5), Cayman (4) and 911 (22 and counting). They’re not going to produce a new parking brake and revised center console just for one variant of the 911.

Here seems to be the quickly arriving consensus on the Porsche forums:

You can practically hear it from the girl laughing in the front seat.

Z06 - because your kid isn’t dangerous enough in a Mustang GT they don’t respect!

No joke, a secret dream of mine is to write “Plymouth Prowler: The Jalopnik Review.” I would kill to make that happen.

Stacy also remembers the Iron Duke.

I remember the Iron Duke Camaro. I was doing tech inspection for an autocross in the early 90’s and this somewhat tired looking, faded light blue, with wide steelies and wide tires pulls up for inspection. A gangly guy with glasses and a button down shirt, looking every bit the part of an engineer, jumps out and pops…
