Words fail me. Old Gregg approves.

I really disliked Berettas back in the day. Then again, my college pals owned them as parental hand-me-downs, and not a GTZ in the bunch. It's funny how much better cars like this look in hindsight especially with John Davis' charismatic praise as a soundtrack.

It needs period-correct wheels. I'd say some Weds mesh alloys would turn this frown upside down. Further examination of the ebay pics also suggest a distinct need for the original 240z bumpers to be reinstalled. Assuming the chassis has been properly reinforced I'd say this is a lot of Z for not much $.

Nahhh, I'm just a lightning rod for stupid.

Jalopnik is totally broken this morning, scrolling down the lead stories - and the first five or so repeated infinitely. Then comments duplicated ad infinitum. I'm chiming in here to say that the new Phaeton will make the previous model even cheaper on the used market and wondering if my comment will multiply like…

Texas' ass-hat quotient is merely average. I'd put it on par with Florida where my 240z was destroyed by a drunk, tattooed neanderthal who similarly offered me a beat down when I asked "why did you hit my car". Luckily he was friends with the police officer who arrived, so no sobriety test was administered despite his…

Oh Austin. You try so hard to appear progressive but you're still full-up with Texans. I should know, having been recently rear-ended there by an impatient, cannon ball headed knuckle dragging tattooed neanderthal. Who didn't have insurance. Or a valid driver's license. And who threatened me with a beat-down before…

The author of this slip shod example of plucking low-hanging fruit obviously quickly scanned the wiki on the Ford Cougar and saw "the (Cougar) was originally intended to be the third generation Probe" and then in his mind narrowed that down to Cougar = Probe. The European Mondeo aka American Contour upon which the…

If the statement that the Ford Cougar was based on Probe mechanicals wasn't enough, he also posits that the Honda CR-Z gets 33mpg - but the EPA rated it 39 and most owners report 40+ mpg. Also in the CR-Z's favor is that for what it is, which is a "sporty car", it's pretty awesome. Their biggest detractors are the…

Jeremy Clarkson, inveterate hater of most things American positively LOVED the Cougar when it debuted. I've think its style was light years ahead of everything Ford was doing at the time and mechanically they're akin to the Contour, not the Probe. Why you're hating on it puzzles me. Your friend must have had a bad…

No, no, no - that's only on odd-numbered days.

Did Jack visit your wife while you were off on business or piss in your Corn Flakes? These are things he's likely to do, but authoring uninteresting journalism isn't one of them.

Because Michael Bay movies suck.

Jalopnik journos breathlessly hype crummy Hollywood blockbusters with cars in them as if cars and chase scenes make them "good" movies. That's great for 13 year old boys but not so much for me. Until another sublime thriller like Ronin comes out I'm hoping that Jalopnik can ixnay-on-the-michaelbay, okay?

Ever notice that the loudest of the far-right contingent typically have cushy gov't jobs they can't get fired from, like cops for example? Or Navy defense contractors?

I for one, do not approve of socialists like you getting a free ride "working" for the government, you wouldn't survive in the free market economy.

On the contrary my friend, the military budget is certainly NOT being cut. Also, I haven't noticed Obama being weak, in fact I'm nothing but disappointed in how similar he is to his awful predecessor, health care overhaul excepted.

My dog looked at these color photos and was unimpressed.

NOBODY, not even the author of this story caught on to where the model number for these 'phones is derived from. Tycho Magnetic Anomaly 1 ("TMA-1") was the name the scientists gave to the Monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Hey, there’s a comic on this exact subject. Imagine that.
