Two runners up - first, I don’t care he would’ve been a 45-year old Brit portraying a southern kid called Baby, Noel Fielding should’ve had the lead in Baby Driver. And, while just being a bunch of clips from Vanishing Point loosely strung together, Show Me How to Live having the Vanishing Point Challenger (and Camaro…

How many other music videos were directed by one of Jalopnik’s own (Davey G Johnson, in this case)? For that matter, how many music videos have a fictionalized Juan Manuel Fangio as an OG Saab 900-driving assassin?

For a clean anything, $2500 is pretty reasonable. Unless there’s someone incredibly nostalgic for a Corsica (which, absolutely possible, because they were everywhere), hopefully this ends up as part of a picture car fleet - we’re due for more 90's period pieces, and this is very era correct.

Counterpoint;

Is it because this is the car they’d take to IKEA?

I admittedly love the X351 XJ, but whether or not it worked, I think it was justifiable to move away from the design language used from the Series 1 through X358 XJ’s. It was always supposed to be a modern car, and by 2010, had basically aged into a retro pastiche. Even worse, while the X350/358 is a much roomier car…

Does being the sketchy person count? I was taking transit home, heavily inebriated, middle of February, middle of the night, and on my last transfer, the streetcar driver insisted I didn’t have a valid transfer and was trying to kick me off. Now, I’m not sure if it was because I’d been in transit so long (including at…

4th to 5th gen Discovery is such a disappointment, although as much as the new Defender is a sad Defender, it’s a half-decent Discovery.

Always worth mentioning that the 2nd gen Aurora was initially supposed to be the Antares, a replacement for the 88, but ended up having to fill both roles, so yes, very much a downgrade.

Sloppy editing, they’re clearly talking about the Buick Enbiggen.

Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, if just for combining the very British interior with the very French suspension borrowed from Citroen.

Mark V looks better, but wasn’t it decontented against the Mark IV?

Okay, but what about a contemporary Lincoln Town Car, if our standard is kinda comfortable car that’ll last forever?

Thankfully my kid has mostly moved on from this stuff to standard cartoons, because this makes Paw Patrol palatable.

MkII got there first (and even then, earlier Jag sedans could probably argue for the mantle), but yes, needs to be some sort of Jag on the slideshow in a couple days.

The only net positive the Escalade EXT gave the world was John Phillips’s review of it.

That basically looks like the colour on the contemporary Silverado SS, and it kind of works there, but yeah, not really fitting a luxury truck.

Even prior to that, there was a diesel-powered XJ early in its life, although it also came from Europe (via Renault)

Probably true, but also nothing new.

250. There is not a single rational use where 250 cannot be justified as enough (assuming proper torque). Is more nice? Sure! Do I think the world is ending because like a dozen people are going to buy a 1000hp Hummer EV’s? Not really. But if you can’t have fun, or tow, or comfortably cruise at highway speeds with…
