There must be something I’m missing with this. With all the coverage this thing has been getting on all different news sites and continual updates of its continued existence (or not?), I’m apparently the only person who doesn’t get it, especially in light of people dying, threat of WW3, and inspiring stories of badass

It is—Bugatti is their top-tier product.

I’ve seen a Veyron and Zonda up close and that matches my observation, too. The most surprising thing about the Bugatti was how small it was. With the Zonda, it was the awe-inspiring craftsmanship.

Seems ridiculous to change to lower gearing for “back roads” in a car that makes about 1500 hp. Not my thing, but at least it’s a lot better looking than the Veyron. The interior, however, is somewhere between boring and ugly.

That Civic will be a conversation starter, but I doubt the moron who bought it will like where it goes if there’s anyone there who’s honest and doesn’t care about saving the feelings of an idiot. They were underwhelming even when new. There’s a reason the only way they are remembered as being impressive is due to

For way less, you could go really nuts and get a whole new improved chassis for it.

It’s a Jeep thing. You wouldn’t understand.

The kind of person who would buy those ironic(?) cyber nuts are the kind of person who thinks Musk’s referencing of woefully outdated cliche jokes (because he doesn’t seem to have his own) are funny. They might not be a Tesla product, but it certainly fits like it could be. I don’t think I’ve seen a single set of

Lack of these terrible safety features that even when working properly are obnoxiously annoying is legitimately one of the reasons I bought mine in spite of its inability to handle a roof rack. Eyesight comes with or is at least available on the automatic, but anyone getting an automatic in one of those gets what they

Well, this might explain some of the behavior of CRV eunuchs, but it certainly doesn’t cover it all. Got to love these “safety” features that aren’t necessary if people simply drive as they’re supposed to.

Every time I see one, I think it’s a bigger RAV4, except that every Urus I see is some boring color and RAV4s are commonly a stand-out bright blue.

You could jam this whole thing up with Franco Sbarro’s surreal art projects.

I needed this laugh today!

If it were a classic Lamborghini, I’d maybe be sad, but it’s just a (couple of) relatively common overpriced VW(s).

If you have a place for it, engine stands are cheap. Get one and a used engine and manual for it—maybe you can get a blown one for free—that you can take apart and scrap or rebuild and maybe sell for profit, but either way, if you have a mechanical mind, there’s nothing like seeing and doing to really understand the

About 25 years ago, I had a good-sized upper portion of an oak tree fall onto my car while driving down the street on a day with little wind. Nowhere to swerve with an oncoming car in the other lane, so all I could do was brake hard and I was able to contain the damage ahead of the passenger compartment. Creased the

Don’t watch the video if you want to see what you think you’ll see. Woman riding on luggage is barely visible, but there’s some typical hard on who not only thinks we need to listen to his unnecessary narration, but who pauses the feed every time he opens his face to drag out a what should be a quick video to almost 7

They just went/are still going through this with MA State Police. To risk throwing away a highly secure 6-figure job with great benefits and a pension that an average IQ person can do with less qualifications than a lot of (often more societally beneficial, more difficult, and thankless) jobs that barely pay a livable

I think I was behind a Model Y that had this problem last week. It’s not too uncommon to be behind a tap dancer, but this dickmonkey was practically break-checking down 10-15 mph at a time seemingly several times a mile even though I was far enough behind him to barely need to lift to avoid a collision, so it wasn’t

While some of those issues should have been pretty damn obvious before purchase, it is unacceptable for a 2-year-old car to have ANY quality issues beyond maybe some initial build problem that would be picked up shortly after purchase, especially one they’d been building for a while even if he did 50k/year and that’s
