I went up until two months ago without ever seeing one of these. All of the sudden, there was a black one next to me at a light while visiting family in a slightly more blue-collar area of California. I did a double-take. Then two weeks ago I saw another one (different car) here in LA and yep, still did a double-take.…

Having driven a ‘15 AWD GS for a week, I heartily disagree. That car is heavy. It looks very striking, don’t get me wrong, and the GS / Turbo models have some pickup, but the thing weighs 3,650lbs! I would honestly take the FWD GS just for the weight savings.

I surely do because that’s a way funnier word.

Pretty sure that’s a LamBMWorghini, bro.

This car works shockingly well as a convertible. Way, way slicker than the new ‘stang vert.

I am a Jalopnik fanboy.

8: THIS. Using dishwashing soap on your car is like using Lever 2000 in your god damn hair unless expressly for the purpose of removing existing wax / sealant at which time wax or sealant should be REAPPLIED.

It’s also possible they simply refused to give the BBC a full “no” until the 11th hour to see if they could force them into allowing Jeremy back on the show. It could very well have just been a bluff, not that I think the BBC could remotely go back on the decision to pull Jeremy off the show without completely…

Yeah, the 2.3-16 is common enough in America, and you can find shitbox examples for sub-$10K without much trouble, but you’re asking for a never-ending supply of repairs. Prices on pristine, low-miles ones are going up, though - $20-30,000 is not unheard of for sub-50k mile examples.

why this color was ever popular in cars in the mid-aughts, I still have no fucking clue. IT’S THE COLOR OF PEE, PEOPLE, COME ON.

Larger kidneys allow for superior filtration of the toxic personalities who will inhabit this vehicle.

I had one guy bring along his “mechanic” friend who tried to tell me my car had been in a “serious rear-end accident” because an exposed portion of the frame visible in the spare compartment of my old S4 looked “too new” and “not original.” Yes, it is apparently unbelievable that a painted piece of fucking steel can…

I don’t have enough stars for this.

If you’ve got to do a whole head or more, yeah, go for it. But even if I need 5-10 cloves I generally just prefer doing it by hand, this method generates more dishes, even though it is super awesome as a party trick / kitchen demo.

Really enjoyed this video, Tav. Get Mr. R to share it on his YouTube channel, you deserve more eyeballs.

That’s such a bummer. Well, I hope they get it right eventually. I’d love to see a MazdaSpeed 2 with a turbodiesel or something bonkers.

Unfortunately, social engineering works extremely well on people who don’t spend a lot of time doing commerce or business on the internet. If you’re just on Facebook at home and using a computer otherwise just for work stuff, you’re just not getting exposed to the hilarious amount of fraud that happens on the web.

I’ve got a sudden and indescribable urge to watch regular car reviews now.

Mazda 6 diesel wagon with 300ftlb+ torque? WHY AREN’T WE GETTING THIS

Wow. These people have gotten altogether too much sympathy.
