SO MUCH DOWNFORCE BRO

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.

And a waiver about 27 pages long.

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.

Your G3 doesn’t have a 4K display.

Yeah, south of the 10, I can only imagine. Venice Blvd is super dangerous and the roads down there are even worse, obviously. I spent all this money on a nice town bike and now I literally hate the idea of going out and riding it unless I strap it to my car, DRIVE to the strand path in Palisades and do it that way.

This is the problem. The notion that bikes and cars can “share” in LA is just absurd. There are too many people who are aggressive drivers, and the roads simply aren’t designed for it. In neighborhoods like Silver Lake and Venice, bicyclists rely on safety in numbers, and this just encourages road rage from drivers
