Larry Costilla needs to show up with his steam cleaner.

I'm pretty sure they just edited the commercial from different angles of the Corkscrew. It was a fun little car. I remember driving a Fiat 2000 Spider as a chase car for a, get ready for it, Ferrari 512 BBi. I struggled mightily to keep up. The Fiat was a lovely gold color, with a scrumptious cream leather interior.…

I'm injured.

Well, I think what you are suggesting is going to happen. In fact, I think Apple is going to make hardware for some automakers. I upgrade every 2 years on my iPhones, and I'm on my second iPad (I had an original and now I have an iPad 3 LTE). I have a MacBook Pro, a Mac Mini and original iMac (it's a cool piece of…

I'm an iOS user, but I'd be concerned about being orphaned. We keep cars for a long time.

You live and die by the numbers. As fast as Ford is a success, it could be a has-been, though its stock price is doing very well. But consider MyFord touch, when the public figures out what we all know, that is that it blows chunks, Ford could see sales slip. But, he should be proud because by using smart people, the…

Pretty much.

But your bags still go through an X-Ray and you go through a metal detector. The only difference is that you don't have to take off your shoes or belt, plus you don't have to remove your laptop. It's not like it's an open thoroughfare where one simply glides through.

I'm in TSA Pre on two counts:

I must have been a Hipster waaaaay before being a Hipster was cool. Back in 1986 or so, me and buddy were going to school at Macomb College. We each lived in our parents' large Shelby Township homes and decided we wanted to strike out on our own. We scoured the papers and started looking at rentals.

The fact of the matter is that plug-in pure electrics are selling pretty well right now. The Leaf outsold its production and Tesla cannot keep up with demand. The pricing seems high, but for $10k more than a Leaf you get a high-end interior and probably better technology. I think Patrick makes a good point about the…

I do like the twins. I'm no fan of Subaru either, but that's because their drivers annoy me out here in the West. These owners are typically left-lane hogs. Exception: WRX drivers.

I feel sorry for these folks. Other than the WRX, when I see a Subaru, it's usually obstructing traffic here in Colorado because apparently their owners' Birkenstocks get bridge the gap between accelerator and brake pedals.

I always assume it's staged, how else would one reasonably produce something with the quality (in terms of visual quality) that you get with Top Gear.

It's pretty, too bad Toyota lost this part of its soul and heritage, for the most part.

I have an E46 and the engine is my favorite part, but my first straight 6 was in my brother's TR-6. Smooth, strong and so linear in its power delivery that it left an indelible mark in my automotive memory.

You took it like a man. We're proud of you. I was waiting to hear how you were pulled over for speeding or something. Alas, you're a responsible journalist and driver.

Whose code? We're talking Khakis, collared shirts, etc....Of course, that's not always the case, but it is for most.

And this is his buddy's one-off Aston Martin honoring a famous Japanese character.

We have a business casual dress code. In my department we have to have a suit and tie ready to go due to other customers, some of whom still dress in suit and tie daily. I'm mixed on the issue because I do like nice clothes, but to be honest, it's more productive to be casually dressed. It seems like people are easier…
