Still better than Spirit Airlines. 

It will be interesting to read Peter DeLorenzo’s (the AutoExtremist) take on Farley’s promotion. In the past, AE has been extremely vocal about Farley’s lack of virtues as an executive and a leader.

I hear Pier One is hiring.  Oh wait....

Here’s to good old Mazda. Still making good-looking cars in an era when almost everything is ugly. Still selling a light, fun, gorgeous sports car for cheap. Held the line with manuals as long as they possibly could, even in a minivan. Still innovating ICE engines when everyone else is phoning in electrics. Talking…

The going away view is equally stunning.

I didn’t become a Mazda fanboi until I bought my first Miata.  I’m now on my second, and while its replacement will probably not be another Miata there is a good chance it will be a Mazda.

That is all.

I didn't expect to become a Mazda fanboy. It just happened. Thanks, Mr. Matsuda.

To be fair, that Cosmo is only 52.

Counterpoint: Miatas are low volume and have less vehicles to spread development costs across on their unique platform. Mazda is not exactly swimming in cash. Miatas have no direct competition in the small RWD convertible department.

Just implement a carbon tax you cowards

So coal isn’t making a come back?

Well this tells me there is likely a bright future for Tesla. At the pace they’ve been growing I wouldn’t be surprised if in 10-20 years, they’ll be one of the top 10 global automakers.

But we are Americans and all our past decisions are always right, and never to be questioned! We shall keep marching on the path we have chosen and any alternative suggested is by definition a socialist infringement upon our freedoms!

So do nothing because of hypocrites and other countries? Cool.

You know you can be a “car people” and think that building suburbs around car usage, driving a car downtown and removing catalytic converters to gain a few HP are all dumb ideas.

False! Not making babies is the single biggest way to reduce your environmental impact.

Are you kidding?  Ants are at ground level.  That's the last thing I need in my butthole.

Just do it in front of your living room window or patio door. Bonus points if its at ground level. 

OEMs, Sure we will manufacture the cars here.
