The actual Hoonigan likely didnt have anywhere near this much debt or business volume. They were basically a merchandise and media production company. The nugget hidden in this article is that Wheel Pros, a MUCH bigger company, bought Hoonigan last year and renamed themselves Hoonigan. The company that went bankrupt…

Hoonigan, prior to the merger, was a promotional agency masquerading as a t-shirt/youtube brand. They made millions on deals with big companies like General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, FCP Euro, Kubota, Black Rifle Coffee, etc.

Post-merger they wrapped the Hoonigan name around the company formerly known as Wheel Pros, so…

The one that has at least three black people inside. 

A running, driving, stick shift Swedish convertible from the land of no road salt for under four grand?!? NP at his original price, much less five hundred smackers less!!!

Nobody in the market for a flagship Aston model is going to be cross shopping a corvette. Two different cars for two different people. 

Looks ugly and cheap...can’t wait to shop for these in a couple of years when they are under $20k, ugly and cheap is my aesthetic.

Back in my day, we called it the Vanish

Ooof. The overall shape and rear three quarter are phenonmenal... but that gaping maw of a grille? JFC. It’s like they looked at all the whole Toyota “angry carp” design language for the front clip and went “HOLD MY GUINESS, I BET WE CAN FIT A BIGGER ONE ON THERE.”

I’ll be impressed when someone at that level makes a faster car, but smaller (narrower 180cm at most, shorter (max 450 cm etc.) than the previous version. And you can keep the wheelbase if you shorten the longer and longer overhangs on supposed sports or GT cars.

Do automakers like Maserati include those toolkits in their cars as an inside joke with their customers, or on their customers?

Sheesh, you use silicone for pot grabbers, and I can tell from personal experience wearing a leg/stump liner for my prosthetic: It is hot!

Tesla people are the new Harley people? Discuss.

Can’t believe that nobody’s mentioned an EcoBoost Mustang. Starting MSRP is $31k, and it’s a blast to drive (although the new generation’s interior is a huge step back from the previous gen’s).

There are a lot of couches in Ohio, and JD Vance is but one man.

I don’t know how you fit in a Mazda3 unless you’re built like Cotton Hill and don’t have shins - I’m 6' even and have to put the seat in mine as far back as it goes.   I can’t imagine having longer legs and trying to drive it for any length of time.

It’s 104 there right now, and will go up to 105 in the next hour. Forecast is 111 tomorrow, 114 Wednesday, and 116 Sunday. It’s slightly dipping below 80, at night.

Counterpoint: He is smart in exactly zero ways, he is a conman and a snake oil salesman who got rich marketing the ingenuity of others.

Regenerative braking helps from EV/Hybrid setups.

Hybrid vehicles and to a greater extent electric vehicles use little to no friction braking, because they make use of motor resistance to recharge the battery (“regen brakes”). The brakes may be identical, but they just won’t heat up as much because they won’t be used as much. I can do my whole 25 mile each way suburba…

I’m sorry, but why would you even entertain the idea that politics was involved?
