that's not at all true, I am cross shopping these cars.

the experience of owning and driving a car entails a lot more than just lap times, in my book. i don't have the $$$ to garage a fleet of four-wheelers, but i do have a small collection of motorcycles. to me, my bmw r nine t, or my ducati monster (each has about 100 hp) is worth a helluva lot more than any gixxer or…

P.S. the GT3, as you rightly point out, is the track car, and as such gets only the PDK. this is the best P-car you can get with a man-tran, and getting it without a stick is something chicks do. you're not a chick, are you? alright, good talk. i'll see you out there.

I MUST HAVE ONE NOW.

While circumstances are never exactly the same, and the impact of cheap oil can be difficult to isolate from other economic factors, the broad consequence in each of these instances was the same: They stimulated global economic growth. Dr. Yergin estimated that global economic output would grow this year by an…

Lotus introduced the Seven back in 1957, and with the help of consistent, incremental improvements by Caterham, the design has stood the test of time. There's easily another century of fun for the Seven.

I'm going out on a limb by saying this, but I think the BMW i8 could be seen as the Citroën DS of its time. Back in 1955, the DS showed the world the future of the car, and the i8 is doing that right now.

can't be too big for me, i'm 6'4'' and all legs. daddy needs his space. but i was loving your argument and ready to look for a 996 with a nose job until i realized how bad the interior is... too bad.

the only question i have remaining to answer is, can i find a perfectly-spec'ed 997 GTS used to satisfy my taste buds,…

then you must LOVE the 991. i can't take the shelf in the ass of the new car, and i prefer the more steve-dallas upright windscreen of the 997.

it's not just headlight shape, it's the intolerable interior.

people who spec cars in yellow should be shot. it should be something porsche refuses to do for the sake of the brand.

This is the greatest story I've read on Jalopnik since the last time I read my Porsche story on Jalopnik. It makes me want to try to avoid looking at the headlights and go on Ebay and buy one of these. But whenever I start coming around to a new Porsche — for example when I finally realized I loved the 964 — they…

this is like when i tell the kids at my fraternity they shouldn't drink so much... as i'm chugging a 2-liter carafe full of oettinger.

I could read this here exact type of reporting all day long (and I do). Please keep on bringing it!

fcking AWESOME cop!

Calling the second-generation A4 Quattro a compact executive car is absolutely correct, even it's just a VW Passat with Quattro all-wheel drive and a higher price tag. None of that matters now, because it's a decade-old wagon that remained a nice car to have.

seriously, what dickheads. if you're not prepared to sell the base model of your car, then you suck. nice manettino, asshole.

if i were choosing between this and a corvette, i think the choice would be pretty easy. but what if i want a porsche???

Thankfully, the Mercedes C-Class lives in a part of the market where all the cars are better than decent and the car you end up with is probably close to exactly what you want. They're cars too good to be jaded about, even if not every car is the one you'd buy. For instance, the BMW 328i is probably Ze German chariot…

It's a common problem in automotive criticism that we end up, by virtue of access or kink, loving cars that most people don't; like being a music critic who loves Warpaint but is stuck reviewing Katy Perry. We can become jaded. We request the car we're least likely to be given, thus the perverse attraction to RWD…
