I find it simultaneously comforting and depressing that the U.S. isn’t the only industrialized nation with major infrastructure issues.

So... all of these loving words about the car and no true beauty shots of the pristine interior? You monster!!!

Actually, she grew up in Ogden, Utah — which probably explains why she did so well in the nasty weather.

This pic pretty much says it all:

1988 Corvette. My dad was a salesman at a Chevy dealer for about a year and a half beginning in late 1987, and I began my obsession with cars while he was there. I’ve been interested in just about every production car at one time or another along the way — everything from Toyota-based Chevy Novas to Ferraris. The…

David, if you do ANYTHING bad to that Alero I may have to flatten all the tires on your cars and break out all their windows. Oldsmobiles, being survivors, deserve respect. If you’re going to do something horrible to a car, please do it to a horrible car... like a Neon, Yaris, or Echo.

There’s a guy who owns a Beat here in South Jordan, UT. I’ve come across him a couple of times, but this is the only photo I have of the car:

What is it about Australia that makes them always try to out-Florida Florida? Is it all the “most deadly” animals they have or what?

5th Gear: The Alltrack Leads Volkswagen’s American Comeback

Nice price, but only because I loved Fieros way back when. I’d rather buy a pristine, stock ‘94 or ‘95 MR2 Turbo, though.

3rd Gear: Here’s a link to a more complete version of the story; the WaPo link no longer shows the quote posted here.

The best idea of all is a headlamp switch like the one on the Focus. It has Off, Parking Lamps Only, Headlamps On, and Auto positions. I just leave mine in Auto unless there’s some specific reason I want to turn the headlamps on or off manually.

Absolutely gorgeous Camaro. That blue is perfect.

This is quite possibly the most well-written article I’ve ever seen on any of Gawker’s various sites. A big gold star for you, Stef!

Kind of reminds me of my own Integra story, which admittedly isn’t anywhere as interesting as yours. My car, a ‘97 LS four-door, was totaled in a wreck by a red-light-running ‘88 Pathfinder, and about six months later I found it for sale at a local bodyshop/dealership. They’d not done the greatest job repairing the…
