It’s a car you can drive, eat in, sleep in, sex in, transport large boxes, what else can you ask for?

I would have gone full Dr. Frankenstein and swapped in a Honda F20C from an S2000. Of course, that would blow your budget and take up a lot of time. On second thought...

Sgt. Tempus of the Time Police Local states that your Mach-E warranty has retroactively expired 20 years ago.

That Subaru Samba Van is pretty dope. They are sort of legendary in Japan, much like the VW Microbus. Very small, very utilitarian, very cute and tough.

Honda will never make a car like the s2000 again, so scoop them up when you can. Mileage doesn’t matter as much; still plenty of parts available (even OEM parts) and a large online community to help with issues. There will be issues...

I love it when tech companies think they can solve everything with their particular systems or technology. Hey Apple, how about just keeping my Mac from erasing it’s keychain with every system update, or my iPhone from giving my location to corporations by default. Maybe then, you can operate my vehicle.

2023  should bring an Anniversary Edition for the 86. Usually, like the 10-Series 10 years ago, it will include a one-off paint scheme, limited numbers, and they throw in all the available options they can.

I’d much rather see a movie based on “My Name is Mayo.”

The “I” in Acura ILX (unofficially) stood for “Integra,” according to some insiders I have spoken with; so notwithstanding Acura’s bold statement that “the Integra is back!” how is this different from the current ILX?

Is this going to be like when VW came out with the GTI Rabbit Edition and said, “oh and by the way they are already sold out.”

The problem with LA is your going to piss off traffic no matter where you go. Long Beach has the Grand Prix every year with minimal annoyance because it’s a harbor area. You could put it somewhere like Redondo Beach but it’s pretty hilly. You can even include the hill used in the original “Gone In 60 Seconds.”

What makes this an Integra and not an ILX?

AWD Juke: $31,000
Nissan Z Performance Model: $51,015

Where would any of these songs be without Autotune?

I first saw the Acura ZDX at the LA Car show, when it was brand new. The spokesperson was telling us how advanced the design was, how it was Acura’s design aspect moving forward. I opened the back door and tried to get in; I couldn’t get my head in no matter what angle I attempted. I gave out a condescending “whoops!”

A whole day? Luxury...

I’ve never, NEVER, witnessed a Tesla wearing a front license plate, which are required here in CA. Do cops not give tickets to Teslas?

This guy is starting to look like Trump’s cousin who deals meth out of an old ice cream truck.

These Previi are great for a couple of reasons. First, you can take all the seats out of the back and you essentially have a cargo van. Second, swap out the anemic 4-cylinder for a Camry V6 and you have a useful vehicle you can actually drive uphill.

I stuck one of these Ozone Air Purifiers in my cigarette lighter hole, and yes I drove with my windows open.
