Wouldn’t those front fake vents just create a big air pocket increasing drag? They don’t seem aerodynamically sensible at all.

This is my biggest design peeve; fake things in general (fasteners, wood, etc...) but the fake grills really grind my gears. The new Civic’s rear fake grills are the worst. It’s lazy design, and I honestly don’t know why it’s not shamed more in the design community. It makes the car look like a kid’s toy.

The 86 should have been the damn Celica.

The best reply I saw on Twitter was something like ‘Why would they ban their mascot?’, which is the appropriate take.

Very fitting for Cadillac. Even their logo will be an empty shell of its former self.

I’ve had better out-of-warranty service from Honda, than in-warranty service from GM. The way GM screwed me, there weren’t any parts replaced in-warranty. Chevy can conduct multiple surveys until they get the results they like.

I’m convinced car dealers are the dumbest people on earth.

WTF BMW that is horrendous. Whoever designed it needs to have their head examined, and the person who approved that shit should be fired. These grilles are getting ridiculous.

It’s times like these when I truly appreciate just how beautiful the E38 was. Is. Wis.

Why do BMW kidneys now look an ass print on a soft sofa?

The point of the number isn’t to reward the victim, but to punish the offender. No, the guy doesn’t really deserve much more than what he paid for the car, plus any money he put into having it diagnosed, plus his lawyer fees, plus some amount for his time/hassle. That number however, is likely to be small enough that…

Just in time for 2019.  Convenient.

Pontiac wasn’t doing fine. They sold 350k cars in 2007 (pre market melt down) and were making crap that was just rebadged Chevy crap.......or vice versa. A GM brand needed to be killed off long before it happened. Buick had lower volume in the U.S. (~1.5% market share vs. ~2% market share for Pontiac), but killing…

Oh, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudge...

welp... there is only one holiday movie (okay okay.. 2 i guess.. ill count home alone)

It’ll be the Chinese. As you imply, the Russians are already very good at getting things into space, plus, they’ve got a big list of accomplishments when it comes to space missions. That and NASA and Roscosmos are very professional when it comes to their working relationship. The Chinese, on the other hand, are likely…

Seems like this is an update to the old way VW used to say “fuck you”:

The problem with German food is that two or three days after eating it, your hungry again. 

What is the German obsession with eliminating things they consider undesirable?

Cool. Now get rid of Paul McCartney and we’ll be talking.
