Also, if you were thinking of buying a Ford Focus Hybrid just buy an EcoBoost Mustang instead. Just to be safe.

CP. $10K is just too expensive for this, regardless of how 'rare' and 'unique' it is. Also... lowering springs in northern Utah is a baaaaad idea given our irrigation-ditch-like gutters.

Jeez, and I thought failing my first test for speeding 5mph over the limit was bad...

Neutral: How close is your MPG to the EPA number? You doing better or worse than the EPA says you should do? Is it your car? Your drive? Your under inflated tires?

Same here, and I'm the guy who submitted it.

Sooo true.

Funny enough, that's exactly what I thought when I saw it.

As I said in my email, CP all the way.

The Porsche 914/6 was an absolute sales flop despite the fact that it was a light weight, mid engined, rear wheel drive sports coupe with a sweet flat-six. Values on the 6-cylinder 914s are reaching the stratosphere, due to its scarcity.

He'll be here all night, folks!

I'm looking to go back to school and this guy's story is very inspirational to me. If he can do it while living in his car, I'm sure I can do it while holding down a full-time job and starting a family... right?

The more drifting I see, the more it makes sense to me. This thing is just plain awesome.

It's been said before and it'll be said again, but oh, how the mighty have fallen.

Ah. Hadn't thought of that. I know that car prices there are friggen ridiculous, and the import taxes are probably a large reason for that.

Wait... they're not going to sell this in Brasil, but they're going to sell it in Uruguay and Bolivia? Why, Ford, why?

I bet rally drivers have incredibly powerful legs, given the massive balls of steel they all must have.

Agreed! I've been active on the site for almost a year and am now in the gray again, but the spammers are still able to post? WTH!?

Is it just me, or does the body package make the Tesla look like a Pontiac? Yeah, I know it's missing the Pontiac grill, but...

As much as I love the Elise, and prefer Honda engines to Toyota, $39K is just too dear for it. CP.

A 'flag as spam' option works, but only if the commenters act like adults. Thankfully, Jalopnik seems to be mostly made up of people who can limit the pissing matches seen on other Gawker properties.
