The good news is that they're making it. The bad news is that when they do, it will remotely resemble this. Why? Because there is no way they can get away with that porthole of a rear window. Also, I don't like the 'beak' (the 8C is more subtle about the traditional Alfa fascia).

You'll know when to stop when your clothes start coming back in different sizes and colors.

The front end is trying to be a toned down LF-A while the rear is just hideous. I can think of no other car that makes the rear wheels look that small (despite being relatively large). Some will say 'dat ass', all I see is cellulite, stretch marks and a distinct lack of curvaciousness.

Thanks everyone for the kind words, I didn't really mean for this to be a sad tale, just a reminder that when it comes to the people we love, sometimes we need a different train of thought.

You just be careful out there in your GT.

My college girlfriend had a 300ZX TT. She was a gearhead and was the person responsible for getting me to do my own upgrades. We went to track days together (I had an MR2 T), we had some nice rivalry going. She had the straight line speed, I had the corners. She was stripping her car to the bare essentials while I was…

I like the Focus. I drove a first gen ST. It will cost another 2 grand to return the appearance to any resemblance of stock. Wings and vents work on the S7, not so much on the Focus. CP.

You have a very twisted mind with astoundingly sound logic.

Being a microwave guy, I would have assumed the van would be labeled "warm candy", "free hot pockets" or "mobile radiation therapy".

All you did is string Sheen screen-time trivia into a coherent sentence. The only way I see that happening is that you are his supplier, which seems completely plausible. Here, I printed your business cards for you.

@gm0n3y: I promote this comment and heart-click you. This is how you do it folks, provide your impulse reaction that tells us what you REALLY think, then put some quick thought and research into it and come back for a quick update. This is commenting and community at its core, and makes me proud to call fellow Jalops…

I wonder what the motivation behind the Escalade axle decision was? (E)stately English occasion meets rustic America-fuck-yeah. Is this another CERN experiment? Will the world implode? So many questions...

Someone took the Camaro sketch they made when they were 6 and had it made.

I think it's a local thing, I couldn't find them on the t-box site, but you're welcome to take a gander for yourself (t-box.com.tr). So far the only ones I could find are Converse with a rear heel zipper, not the interchangeable canvas ones I was originally talking about.

Something similar has been available here in Turkey for over 6 months now, in which the sole and the upper zip together around the perimeter of the sole. I think they're sold in T-Box retail stores and are about 15 dollars for the sole and another 15 for an upper, or 20-something if bought together.

1. Fantastic article.

Cut them some slack... what's not to like? They took a beater and made it into something quite attractive. My guess is they started from the back (with a good idea) and by the time they got to the front, vodka overcame the desire to be thorough, resulting in the rush job looking front end.

Is it just me or is he basically out of revs for a good portion of that video?

While this may work (albeit dangerously) to heat the interior of the car, the point of remote starting is not just to warm up the interior. Cold starts stress the engine enough on their own without inadvertently putting further stress on it by driving off with a cold engine because the interior temperature is up to…
