The Volkswagen Beetle, Datsun 510, AE86 Corolla, and the late-60s/early-70s Chevrolet Novas are getting harder and harder to find stock.

So do I. Badly. In fact, I want that image. Seriously. What must I do for that awesome ad image?

Me, too. Me, too.

I'm going to go with Charlize Theron...

Clickbait trolling. It's just not going to happen, especially not a C8 in 2017.

GM's plan for the mid-engined 2017 Corvette: There won't be one.

I dunno, the Pentastar V6 is actually a great little engine. I haven't actually driven a V6 Challenger, but as far as "little brother" cars go, I'm not at all ashamed to admit that I like the V6 Camaro better than the SS in a lot of ways. I think I'd probably say the same for the Challenger.

I'll say this first: It's beautiful, sounds far more advanced in terms of construction and technical specs than its competitors (Gadgetry and technological sophistication remains to be seen), and if it has an effect anything like the new XF and XJ did, Jaguar will have themselves a superb car. I want one with a V8.

Oh, god. No. I remember the cut scene that said "...But I don't wanna ride the elevator..."

"Cars, no matter how much we want to think they are alive, are not. They do not have a gender and they do not define their buyers. Their buyers define them. Buying a car is one of the toughest and most important purchases that anyone can make. It's how the world at large sees you on the road. Picking a certain car

I am confident that there is a joke being played here. I don't know what it is, though.

See my reply to the other person that brought up the same point.

Curiosity about cities and cultures I haven't experienced much of before is enough to trump the desire to stay at a more southern latitude. Plus, there are minor climate differences, at least in Western Europe, that make cities like London (which would otherwise be far too north and cold for me, much more palatable.

For a metro system that wasn't designed with a whole lot of foresight, it's actually not too bad. The biggest problem it seems to have is the lack of redundant tracks. If there is any kind of construction or issues with a train ahead, the entire line that you're on has to single-track around the area of problem, which

Actually, dipshit, I'm the one that said I was born and raised in Los Angeles. Read the thread again, lest you embarrass the education system of your beloved city.

I don't mind the small-town feel; in many ways, Los Angeles is much the same. It's a huge place geographically, but when things are so spread out, different areas develop their own little small-town feel, despite being part of a much larger overall city.

Psst... he's not the one that said he was a Los Angelino.

No, disparaging it would have been to say that Pittsburgh is a rat-infested shithole full of self-righteous assholes and the worst goddamned sports fans in the United States of America.

I've been several times, and I still wouldn't want to live there. It's not that it is necessarily a bad place to per se, but it's just a hard place to fit in for me - and that's coming from a born-and-raised Los Angelino that had zero problems fitting into Boston. It's hard to pinpoint exactly why, but the city just

Interestingly, the only two of those cities I would want to live in are Stockholm and Vienna. There isn't a city in China you could pay me to live in - issues like non-breathable air (!), non-potable water (!), and rampant, systemic corruption are problems for me. Canada and Chicago are too far north for me, though I
