"You can't autocross a savings account" is my new 2015 WRX justification statement, thank you very much good sir. I have plenty in savings and I've just started investing, my new car is a "fun" EXPENSE and I don't pretend its anything else.

Somewhere out there a StanceBro is weeping. 'Dat glorious suspension travel!
"That particular car was ahead of its time. You had to do something to keep the carbon out of the motor," he said, explaining his high-speed excursions.
I find a nod and an open palm raised communicates that fairly well.
Spotted some short while later...
...Clarkson? I was busy leading the Design, Build, and Fly team but I'm aware that our Formula SAE team was also potentially familiar with on-road shady build shenanigans. Come to think of it, rental minivan hooning at competition could have easy placed on this list too but it wasn't a dumb thing to do because it…
Oh neat, I did a thing! I miss that little car, short of turning into a rusty New England basket case around its 10th birthday it was a perfect first car for putting up with all the bullshit a 17 year old boy can do.
I have the weirdest boner that won't go away until I see one of these hauling a race trailer full of vintage Bentleys. Help me...
The anger was mostly internet comment hyperbole, I honestly don't advocate vigilantism under most circumstances. If you read my other comment in this thread about the friend who was killed by a drunk driver, that driver was found later that night and plead guilty to the crime he committed and was given a just…
I am in no way looking for public sympathy but yes, I had a close childhood friend killed by a drunk driver on a backroad earlier this summer. I see no moral difference between the punishment assigned to someone who has fired a gun randomly at a crowd of people and a person who has driven severely impaired, especially…
Bloody scum. It blows my mind that we lock folks up for years for wanting to smoke a little weed and watch Netflix but a man can be a functional job-holding part of society after their 4th DUI. Someone needs to introduce this man's kneecaps to a baseball bat, it'll be awfully hard to drive then.
"It's like sliding a narrow-body rear fuselage section into an oversized cargo freighter."
Why why why did she did she end up with the physique and features of a crack addict? Oh yeah, the crack.
When I was young and dumber I crammed 8 teenagers into a 2001 Focus ZX3 and drove to Denny's at 1 in the morning for glorious $2 quesadillas. I took a humped intersection just a little bit too quickly for the load and BANGSSSSCCCRRAAAPPPPEEEECCCRRRUUNNCCCHHH!! Many heads hit the ceiling and all spines present were…
Reposting content from The Onion now Ballaban? You should be ashamed.
Being Elon Musk at a business negotiation must be a little bit like being a Formula One driver post-race in the 60's. Your junk is just kind of... there and suddenly everyone is fighting to ride it.
Raph, you should stash "Why Edsel should rise from the grave and replace Lincoln" into the depths of the Jalopnik rainy day article idea drawer. Bet you can think of more reasons why it should than why it shouldn't.
I know, my convoluted point was that my thoughts on pissing oil were in the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles family. At least I didn't type Ford?
Wellll this is embarrassing. In my head I was picturing an oil pissing Cherokee that a friend just bought as I typed that, if that makes it any better.
Thank you! I get called a "MRA" and a misandrist for opinions like this all the time but all I want is complete equality. It's possible to have a good conversation about domestic violence where men are allowed to have a voice too.
