So you’re telling me the same person who thinks Bullit is not that great but thinks the original Italian Job is fantastic dismisses Duel? Shocked, I am SHOCKED.

Everyone else offered half assed sarcastic replies, implying that I dislike the Z8 and want some deeply “””intellectual””” article that no one understand. But this is exactly it, they are just reproducing the same old dumb opinions someone had years ago and no one has stoped to think about ever since. Can you imagine…
That is absolutely true. Wouldn't you love to know why a certain product stirs emotion and how that's done, instead of the same "this is great, you can't deny it" articles that offer no further reasoning for it's claim? I would love to get educated about such an important aspect of my automotive passion, and sure,…
Again, never defended obtuse analysis in the name of sounding intellectual, quite the opposite. Never said the Z8 is a ”objectively” good or bad design. I’m asking for something other than the same old article that some middle aged automotive journalist wrote 20 years ago in his hyperbolic filled review that has been…
There seems to be this lingering feeling that I’m throwing some subliminar shade on the Z8, which is not the case. It looks fantastic. But the article is lazy and reductionist. It’s not peak BMW design at all, in fact, being retro is a good indicator of that, which could make for a great article, if they had someone…
I never said the Z8 isn't an absolute looker, it sure is. But it's not peak BMW design in any way, shape, or form. Acknowledging that doesn't detract from the Z8 one bit.
There’s people out there that can talk about design without going on about any nonsense, as you put it. I'm not even asking for in-dept analysis of every bullshit detail on a forgotten oddball car. Just decent design articles that the common folk can understand instead of the same opinion pieces that are actually just…
I don’t want any academicist bullshit that over complicates the subject just to be obtuse and “intellectual” but regurgitating the same old terrible takes that everyone has heard a million times before is also not the way to go.
Can Jalopnik stop talking about design, or even better, hire someone who actually knows about it to write this type of stuff? Right now its bad take after bad take and it gets annoying after a while.
As opposed to all your other vehicles, which are in top shape?
All fun and games until you die on the road because of an absolute rust bucket, and you have never been closer than now. Stop acting like a know-it-all engineer and start acting like a mechanic. First step is to get rid of this Jeep, or at least get a new frame and transplant the novel body on to it. No one here wants…
Is that it? A bit underwhelming to be honest, considering the Hellcat is what, 3 years old now? I was at least expecting it to look absolutely bonkers, not have the front end from a decade old Mitsubishi.

So basically what the Panamera should’ve looked like from the start. Got it.
So what you’re telling me is that I have a chance?
Great article, Jason! That Fiat Working is actually a Fiat Strada, though, Working is the trim level! And Neither the Uno (that’s the Way version, which is slightly lifted and more rugged) nor the CrossFox are 4x4, they’re both FWD cars with an “adventure flair”, a very popular thing to have over here in Latin…
Lemme try to help you. It’s because this is horrible looking, and Zondas are awesome looking.
Anyone who thinks this looks good is obviously not Brazilian. Also, the people who cry “it’s not meant to look good” make me laugh. I don’t know where does it say that a car has to be ugly to be fast.
The tC as a Celica would be awesome! And It would also be right on par with the “affordable fun cars line up” that Toyota is supposedly aiming at.
Well I know this is all kinds of wrong and I’m definitely over complicating it, but surely there’s a totaled Tesla somewhere with an intact drivetrain, right? I say let this little truck keep it’s intended purpose and find a way to use the Model S electric motors. Plus, it’ll be the ugly Tesla pickup no one asked for.
