“Whoa! Whoa! WHOA!” -official live commentary of every one of these videos. It’s as though we’ve never really adapted to the the horseless carriage.

Nope. Public (and private non-profit) schools are not “just as bad”. By any measure these for-profit schools worse.

Perhaps GM should buy this and park it the design department lobby, to insure they never forget.

Point well taken, and yet (with the exception of the doped out soda car) new teams have not scored many points. Take Adrian Newey out of the equation and it’s even more lopsided.

The older I get, the less I understand the point of these (admittedly amazing) cars. No one really races them (too costly, not a good fit for existing series), and they can’t be raced on the street. Driving around at “normal” speeds exposes the flaws these cars have as “normal” cars (watch any number of Top Gear…

No. The answer is “no, Mr Haas will not succeed in F1”. Without “debris cautions” and that stupid “luck dog” thing, Haas F1 will be fortunate to score a single point. Mind you, I wish this were different- it would be awesome to see the team work, but history/economics are not on their side.

I started drawing at about age 5 and now (5 decades later) I am still drawing, as a professor at an art college. Yes, this is a 5 year old’s drawing. Is it YOUR 5 year old? No idea, but yes, the drawings good look different a few weeks apart.

He said details. Those are not “details”.

Posts like these are why I click on Jalopnik, even as should be doing what I am being paid to do. These are the kinds of questions I trust Torch to ask!

Worked for a newspaper in the circulation department once, and they had a fleet of these things. I spent many hours in them and remember every detail (just not fondly) CP. At any price. God these were awful.

Hands down the fact that it’s nearly impossible to see out the back of most modern cars. Do they even teach drivers ed students to look over their shoulder anymore? So now every car will be mandated to have a tricycle-cam to replace the wonderful, but outdated rear window concept...

The answer is always....2CV??

Did you mean, like, “right before you die”? As in a car that could be the actual cause of death? Then the answer’s gotta be Pinto:

Even the “how about no” bear is not enough “no” for this one. CP.

YES.YES.YES. Take my (theoretical) $500 VW TDI guilt card and just apply it to a downpayment on one of these.

“The Miata IS the beige Corolla of track beaters.”

BMW- all of them, pretty much. Guy at the stop sign who doesn’t wait his turn: BMW. Guy riding my bumper for 10 miles:BMW. Asshat parking space shit: BMW. These are wonderful cars to drive, but not for me, because I don’t want people to think I’m “that guy”.

Looking through these I was reminded that while the “perfect” 911 is indeed a thing of beauty, many are just ordinary and some (like the cabrios) can be kind of crass. Yes, I took this photo. Of things I want but can’t have.
