Pontiac G8 GXP Wagon... I would consider exchanging my right nut for one.

That's what it looked like to me at first, however after reviewing it again I think it might be up in Jawbone.

Matt, I know exactly where you shot this as I shoot there on occasion. Should that car have proved "not so bullet proof" and you had been injured you would have been an uncomfortable distance from medical attention. I guess what I am trying to say is, the S600 is a very large car, yet I still can't figure out where

My first car was a 1983 Isuzu Diesel Pup longbed. It was the only thing I could afford and in my opinion a fantastic first car. I bought it for $1100, sold the power liftgate off the rear for $250 which covered tax and title with a little extra for gas. It had a 3 seat bench but with the 5 speed manual it was

I modified a leased truck once. I put a mid-travel coilover setup on the front of a leased Tundra with 2.5" reservoirs and Deavers in the rear. To accompany that I installed smaller rims with bigger tires. I also changed the exhaust, and intake. The only modification I didn't take off and sell afterwards was my

I've always liked this idea as well. I imagine the shifter as a boat throttle, basically a sliding/rotating selector for what RPM you want the engine at and the transmission takes care of the rest. It could bring an interesting driving dynamic to an otherwise boring and vanilla transmission type.

Now playing

This reminds me of a fantastic video series by Esquire featuring Brian Cox pronouncing all the impossible to pronounce brands of Scotch.

Pontiac Grand Prix GXP. 303HP LS4 = good... Attached to the front wheels = bad. It was so much power they fitted larger tires to the front than the back. In a kudos to GM engineers they decided to go with smaller rear tires so the rear end would break loose a little when you really got into it. Fun fact: this

That turn over the crest at :29 looks properly frightening...

I have not stopped thinking about this OD green Stingray with yellow calipers since I first saw it. I think it gives the stingray a fantastically menacing demeanor that I hope looks just as good on the real thing as it does in this render.

Skip to 2:41 and meet Japanese Michael J. Fox.

16-31? Are there mustache having, car hating, fixie riding, tortoise shell glasses wearing, pbr swigging, face smacking, redditing and twatting millennial hipsters that were born before 85?. Damnit Ford, get off my lawn!

That poor engine! RIP at least it died doing what it loved. The real tragedy here is those awful rims on the support quad.

10:30AM on a Friday and you're only "slightly drunk"? You have some catching up to do my friend.

Personally I'll take the G-Wagon, this car is properly cool though. Needs a few inches of lift and more sidewall.

In the past few years muscle cars have learned how to handle, and now do so much better than many cars I have heard people attach the "sports car" term to. In my eyes that completes the package and makes them sports cars. Please enlighten me and define the difference.

I think the best and simplest way to put this is that HP makes the car fast, a flatter torque curve makes it driveable. Put a Cummins diesel with a flat torque curve of 800 lb-ft of torque from 1600RPM and up in the Vette and it will be very driveable in any gear. However that engines 350HP means it will not be

Ford Mustang GT and Chevy Camaro SS both start at around $20k less and are both in the 420+ HP range.

There are much more affordable ways to get a brand new 400HP sports car. I have spent quite a bit of time behind the wheel of 400-500HP cars. It is a lot of horsepower, however on a track mid 400HP in most modern cars feels pretty mild. I expected more from a sportscar in this price range and prestige level.

My old manager turned in a two year old BMW 5 series for a Ford Flex, he paid 4K more than MSRP for the Flex as it was the only one on the lot. He then tried to convince me it was nicer to drive, and that it got better fuel economy. I will never understand it...
