The only "dicks" are the thin skinned producers.

it's not unusual for people to go missing in Mexico.

Also, California's emissions laws are insane. True story: I had an aftermarket intake on my e39. Went to get it smogged, passed no problem. Guy notices after the test that my intake didn't have the special sticker on it, so he failed me. So I go home, swap out the intake for the stock one, come back, test dirtier than…

Oh my god am I tired of the jaded snark of some Jalopnik posts. Why does everything have to be either masturbatory hyperbole or decidedly nonplussed bitterness?

1996 US-spec BMW 5-series (all models/variations). Total production: 0.

Worst brakes of any car I've ever driven. When you're pushing the pedal, it goes nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing FULL FORCE.

1972 Pontiac Ventura SD. So rare, I could only find a pic of a MT article, not an actual car. The idea was to take a 4-door Ventura (Nova clone), pop in the optional buckets/console from the 2-door Sprint, a 350, some firm-handling suspension goodies, and you have a nice sport sedan. Unfortunately, they never informed…

Subaru SVX, of course.

Mazdaspeed Protege. It's like a regular Protege sedan with the 2.0L four-banger, a cute T25 turbo, limited-slip differential, Racing Beat swaybars, a few other nifty parts, and available only with a manual. Mazda only made about 3,850 of them. Mine was yellow. One of the best-handling FWD cars I've ever taken on a…

2012 was the first year for this bodystyle in the US. If, like me, you want a manual transmission, you were limited to just three color choices - red, grey and something else. For 2013, Mazda changed the shade of red, so the 2012 Mazda5 Sport with a manual transmission in Copper Red Mica is a very rare vehicle. …

isuzu axiom

I always counter the VehiCross with the Axiom.

Solstice GXP coupe, less than 1300 total coupes produced and who knows how many were GXPs.

Chrysler product Hybrid SUV's

SRT8 Durango. Sure, R/T's are around... but SRT8s?

No one mentioned the Z8? Bangle as its best.

I love the pre-facelift 7. The headlights are glorious bits of design. The covers are so clear, they really accentuate the underlying functional bits.

Also, dat ass.

I don't agree with you at all.

I like the Bangle 7, 6, and 5. Quite a lot, actually. The others cars aren't bad either.

The slo-mo shot of the Herc, bike and Subie together is probably my favourite on all of Top Gear.
