Dammit Toyota, when we said we wanted another LFA, we didn’t mean this!

Will it come equipped with small speakers in the wheel-wells to croon apologies to the tires?

I now have a vision of a 427 Morgan Cobra. And it is GLORIOUS.

Hmm, the 1998 Supra Turbo w/a manual had an original MSRP of about $41k, which equates to just short of $63k in today’s money. In that same year, a 6-cylinder BMW Z3—the precursor to the Z4, which will be the new Supra’s German twin—cost about $36k, or about $55k in today’s money.

I am not proud of the noise that came out of my throat when I saw the dark green/bronze wheels combo

I now have a vision of driving one of these around Sleeping Bear Dunes at sunset, and it is glorious

I feel the same way about some black interiors—the trim feels too shiny.

As a fan of cycling and motorcycles, I would love to know if there’s a particular bike—with or without an engine—that has caught the staff’s eyes

What music does everyone listen to in the car? Is there a particular album that somehow’s always on hand?
