Gravity is my least favorite car law.

Brandon- a bit off-topic: come to Brit’s pub this Sunday, 1PM and watch the Hungarian GP with a bunch of like-minded individuals! Does involve beer, however. Find us on Facebook @ twin cities F1

I mean somewhere there’s the first ever K-car (signed by Mr Iacocca himself!). Maybe if Jalopnik started a meh-car-monday-museum this would have a place, but until then CP.

Oh please- I work with 18 year-olds every day. They are hard-working, altruistic, and frequently burdened with debt that prior generations didn’t take on until they bought a house. The average WWII vet was drafted. Todays military is 100% volunteer.

Merlin.

Yeah, I saw that too!

“ a car based on the mechanicals from company’s 2CV but devoid of most of that car’s inherent safety and convenience features. This is the car for people who feel the VW Thing is too overly burdened by obeisance to government regulation and the “science” of automotive safety.”

“Standard admission meant you could sit anywhere” Really? We bought the only available tix online through the official website and paid $85 for a specific seat. In fact there was some confusion in our stands amongst those who hadn’t learned the alphabet. Maybe it was different in the VIP section.

The event was great, but I waited at the Jalopnik booth forever to get your autograph and left disappointed! Actually, in retrospect it might have been a food truck- were you guys serving ice cream?

CP for the shitty “ye olde photograph” filter on the pix- really?

I can’t buy a car on Sunday (I live in Minnesota, USA).

Time for a new feature- Aftermarket wheel or food processor accessory? I’ll start:

Long- distance or time? Short answer: Drive faster.

One the one hand, this is the historically significant precursor to the Subaru Outback etc. On the other hand, I hate the Subaru Outback. This car has a lot to answer for. CP

It’s time has come...

Priced competitively, sort of. When these were new my girlfriend lived around the corner from a small dealer near Chicago. I was lured by the low price, but realized that almost everything was optional, including the transmission. I’m 90% sure the sticker had an option price line for both the manual and the auto.

Patrick for the win, but really- how is a “mini” (here used ironically in quotes) not big enough for the guy and the dog?

When I Craigslist “Maserati” hoping for some fantasy car porn, these boner-killing things always pop up. CP at any price.

I’ve been renting a bunch of crappy rental things lately. The best controls are intuitive-they just feel like they are supposed to be there, and you don’t think about them. Personally I like newer headlights that I never have to switch on or off. Strong dislike for anything that requires a touchscreen.
