In engineering school, they teach you about energy hierarchy. Electricity is at the top, followed by kinetic energy, mechanical potential energy, then chemical potential energy (gas) at the bottom. Did you skip class that day?

The worst Top Gear is Top Gear US (YES ! I've watched it ! And it's very very crap when they do the exact same challenges as the UK version, and even the same JOKES! Top Gear UK is already too scripted, I don't need 3 americans to repeat it in an even worse way).

Not only was the coffee hot enough to cause third degree burns, there was also a mandate that the coffee shouldn't be over 160 degrees F. Which was entirely ignored by the chain. I had to cover this case in a business philosophy course in college. I started off pissed that such a stupid case could be brought, but in…

So you can enjoy your newly bought S2000 it as your DD for the next 10 years while Honda makes up rumors about development for the new model going on and offline until finally releasing a 190 hp, ugly, front wheel drive convertible hybrid in the year 2024 that no one cares about called an Z2000

zzz...you made a good…

Clearly we define competitive differently.

It doesn't kill the GTI where it is sold now, so why would it do so here? I'm not trying to be rude, I just really am curious, and quite don't understand all of the late Buick live.

The key is to make your switch function for the top end versus the bottom end of the spectrum of cars it will be used in. If you take a flimsy cheap switch from say a Sonic and put it in a Caddy the perception will be Caddy has cheap switches. If you take a switch designed for a Caddy and put it in the Sonic the…

I think it was officially called a "Power Bulge" Gigity... Pants joke here.

...and yet the World Cup is being given to a country with this on the statute books. Go figure.

I will never understand you Jeep sheep. That is the most over priced vehicle on the market without exception. The pictured car costs north of $35k. If the Wrangler started at $12k, it would be the best car on the market but they've priced themselves out of their own niche. The Wrangler and Wrangler unlimited have…

Say what you want, but I've never seen a Jeep Grand Cherokee or a Ford Explorer in the mountains of sand in Africa, or the jungles of the Amazon, in the rocky icy Iceland, or in the Outback in Australia. It's always a motherfucking Land Cruiser, Patrol or Montero.

I was just making a similar argument in the office the other day - the modern 911 feels smooth, calm, and refined in much the same way that the 928 feels. I'm not an expert, though — I've had a chance to briefly drive a 928, but I've only had right-seat time in new 991s).

That looks awesome! Here's the thing. The 991 (911) is the modern 928. Sure, the 928 had a V8 in the front and a 991 has a flat six behind the rear wheels, but that isn't the point.

Jeeze

At no point did I say everyone who likes "stanced" cars is like that. You (incorrectly) reasoned that this is what I was hinting at. However, those are merely reasons I've heard blabbered about by people who support conforming to the non-conformist conformity known as the "stance movement". It's a fad. Fads die when…

While this video is edited to look like short clips of a days activities, one can rationally deduce through drifting tire life expectations, camber angles and their inverse relationship, that this was actually ALL the drifting that was done that day. Roughly 1 min. 30 seconds and 2 sets of rear tires.

Also, INB4 the…

I think the outrage about this car really stems from the idea that it's almost as good as it can be, but with some workable deficiencies. With its balance and chasis, what's to stop it really, from competing with the likes of the Cayman/Cayman S?

Yes, because that's the logical end result of what I'm talking about. I also think you should be able to strap a bomb to your chest and blow yourself to pieces in a crowded place.

Hi, I'm your sales consultant, Mike Shaggy2Dope and I'd like to introduce you to the new i3. Now I bet your first question is "how the f*ck does it work?" and let me tell you, my friend, I've often wondered the same thing!

Or wheelie all the way home like a bad ass.
