Of course it’s going to disappoint. There’s precisely two ways the new Supra can go:

Patience, and being willing to take the seemingly longer way instead of fighting a “shortcut” that costs you every bit as much time but significantly more blood and swearing. Everything else flows from that.

BMW, where the numbers relative to displacement are made up, and the series names don’t matter.

Jesus Accord is an -old- joke. A low-effort meme post shouldn’t get #COTD, even though it was certainly on-point for that article.

It will certainly make the normals say, “Dear Lord!” when they see it drive up...

A lot of ‘80s cars are like that; Foxbody Mustangs have both of those quirks as well.

My buddy had to pull asphalt sound deadener out of the back of his S13 hatch.

I’m liking this trend for liftbacks instead of trunks. Now it just needs to trickle back down to the likes of the GT86 and Mustang.

They’d have to bring back the Plymouth name to sell it, though.

If your bar is only 100hp N/A, you could get that from a GT350, too. Though, the Voodoo is only (“only”) 101hp/L, where the new GT3 RS is 130. Which is insane, and near as I know the highest specific horsepower ever in a production N/A engine.

I dunno, Pitbull seems to think it’s decent enough to not shut up about it.

Total side note: if you have a SN95 Mustang like the lede picture, the Steeda Tri-ax (the shifter pictured with the red SN95 below) is *okay*, but if you really want a sublime shifting experience, you need to pony up a few extra bucks and get the MGW.

I’m not sure why the Trackhawk doesn’t satisfy this.

Or if you insist on GM pickups in black, what’s about the Silverado SS? Those inlets up front are even less brash than a “454 SS” sticker.

Or you can get a completely unstickered basey-base F-150 and just check the box for the Ecoboost 3.5L. You can do that with a…

Yep, dickbag move, but I’ll take Jean-”Mark me doing triple digits on public roads” Gales over Danny “I’m not really a car guy” Bahar.

For an entire winter in the north Sierras I drove a foxbody Mustang convertible with the 2.3L and a slushbox. The top was *gone*, with just some tatters remaining over the frame. I was doing a 35-mile one-way commute, and the car handled it JUST FINE, OKAY DAD?!

Everything I’ve heard about the new Bronco suggests it’s going to be a lot more like a new iteration of the pre-Taurus Explorer that it is a proper Bronco. I’m fully expecting to just see a Ford equivalent to a TrailBlazer, which I couldn’t give two shits about.

Sedans don’t rule. Proof: this would be better as a wagon.

Blow Torch? No, thank you.

Buy someone else’s project car? That you know they raced? Doesn’t that violate like all the rules of buying used cars?

Congrats, Torch! I hope that your dream car lives up to all your expectations, well, at least the good ones. I got a kick of vicarious joy from the sense of finally attaining that grail car, so thank you.
