Just bought a black ATS 2.0T sedan a couple of months ago...in my head I’ve started calling it “Morticia”, because I catch myself thinking “Cara Mia!” every time I go into/leave the garage. Have not broken this news to my wife though.

I’m having the opposite experience right now; bought a new Cadillac ATS 2.0T a couple of months ago, kept my Jeep as my daily driver/bad weather ride...and for the first time in memory, I have NOTING to look for on eBay Motors, car.com, etc. I’m at a total loss for motivation, because at the moment I can’t fathom…

Earlier this year I was looking at a new Equinox, but I wanted a certain setup (I think 4-cylinder but AWD, at some certain trim level). Local dealer didn’t have one, but they found one quite a distance away...and wanted to do the same thing, charging me at least $800 to send someone to go get it. I didn’t ask where…

Just this year I’ve bought a used VW Golf from a dealer in Chicago (670 miles away), and a new Cadillac ATS from a dealer in West Virginia (850 miles away...but I took the long way so I could break it in properly, and visit my daughter who lives along the way). Both were great experiences, where I found the car online…

Found these two locally; several others in that price range and equally bad, but some like the Chevy Citation might actually be interesting to fool around with. Neither of these fit that description for me.

Not only were there no donuts, but then the fire hydrant was dry, and didn’t douse the entire scene with water. I feel cheated on so many levels...

Wouldn’t it just be easier to request the mandatory list of winner(s), and then track them down and offer them $4k for the car, if you really wanted one? Or go to eBay and find one yourself, versus jumping through the hoops involved in the hopes you might win?

I’ve amassed a pretty good set of tools over my 30 years or so of adult life, on the logic of “I can pay someone to fix this once, or I can buy the tools and figure out how to do it myself, and be set the next time the problem arises”. I figure worst-case I break even, or only use a tool once...but I gain the…

I recently bought a new Cadillac ATS 2.0T RWD. I kept my old Jeep Patriot as my daily commuter/dirty vehicle, so I’ve got both bases covered at the moment. I’ve spent more time as an adult searching the Internet for cars I’ve dreamed about buying than I ever spent playing video games as a kid, but I’m now in this…

My rule of thumb used to be that there was no reason to ever buy a car that costs more than a Buick LeSabre; anything more expensive than that was excessive and really didn’t gain you that much more car. Then the discontinued the LeSabre, so hard to say if the Lacrosse or the Regal would be my bar these days, but…

I’m sort of on the same wavelength...except I have a Jeep Patriot (FWD) and a new Cadillac ATS 2.0T RWD. Considered trading in the Patriot and getting a new AWD Cherokee, which would have been the more practical thing to do...but I couldn’t stand to think of spending another decade driving around exclusively in a…

Almost daily on my drive to work I encounter sluggards doing the speed limit in the far left “fast” lane of a 3-lane divided highway (6 lanes total, 3 each direction), forcing people going faster to pass them on the right. I’ve done this long enough to observe that along one stretch in particular, those left-lane slow…

“Push the button, Max!”

Considering I was actually watching this one on eBay earlier in the week and eventually took it off, I had to vote CP. I love the notion of owning a car like this, so I end up watching a bunch of stuff along these lines...then the reality sinks in of how much time I’d have to devote to restoring/maintaining something…

I’ve probably shared this before, but I have a CDL, and the last time I went to get it renewed (on my birthday, the day it expired) I’m told there’a red flag on my account from a state halfway across the country...that I’ve never driven in, so they can’t renew my license. Turns out after a bunch of research, that…

1st Gear - My high school senior had been driving my wife’s old 2003 Accord until she wrecked it New Year’s Eve by striking a quite sturdy mailbox. Fortunately the mailbox only had to be stood back into place, though the car was totaled. She managed to mangle the whole right-front side of the car, including knocking…

Is that like being regifted? ‘Cause I can definitely see where having someone give me a second-hand tart would make me want to kick some ass.

I've seen it; it's no "Tucker: The Man and His Dream" but I enjoyed it. I'd watch "Tucker" again, not sure I can say the same about "Flash of Genius".

The only thing that would have made this video more Jalop would have been if the Celica had pulled a J-turn and gone in pursuit of the Volvo.
