I never got to drive this car, but my big brother did. He loved it, and has a picture of doing something like 120 on a dead straight stretch of highway somewhere in the great plains while on a cross-country drive one summer with his college buddy (whose car it was). So, my crackpipe vote isn’t about the car. It’s…

Canadian Morgan.

Well thank God. This will help the handful of big SUV drivers who don’t already drive down my street like they’re running from the cops.

This is about as useful an upgrade as switching from drinking 190 proof alcohol to 199 proof.

Other than the Aztec, that horrible GMC Terrain, and the first iteration of the Cherokee redo (which to me, looked EXACTLY like a damned dinosaur), this is still one of the ugliest SUV’s I’ve seen in some time. It’s better than the last one, but holy hell was that one of the ugliest cars I had the displeasure of…

Came here to point out just that! The nose of the car is barely scratched!

Oh come on — basically whenever one of my sons is acting up, I’ve got about a 50/50 shot of blurting out the wrong name, and that’s my flesh and blood. And anyway, it’s not like being confused for last year’s world champion is so bad. You could certainly be called worse.

No, I can’t believe it’s possible. Beware the mirage. Any parent knows that babies have superpowers, and always bust you. For example, even when they are fast asleep on your shoulder, they will wake the minute you sit down.

I think, these guys (all of these weird compact SUV/smart car things reminds me of big rodents like capybaras and the guinea pigs):

True. But, if you are like many people nowadays who, after graduating from the procreation stage, is considering a vasectomy, this could be a really dramatic alternative. Keep an open mind.

Or ball money.

So ... exactly what happens when you reach your limit in this sport?

That is awesome!

Once is a accident, twice is a pattern. These “wild” turkeys have clearly turned militant. Politics is everywhere.

Can’t each of these cars automatically be made compliant simply by turning off the cheater so that they perform as they did when connected to the test equipment? Wikipedia (I didn’t dig that deeply, I know) says that doing so drops 0-60 times by about .6 seconds and mpgs from 50-46. I get that an owner may not be…

This is worth it just for the news you could create by parking it somewhere close to the White House and then (after leaving and coming back, for good cover), pointing to it and saying “what the hell is a KGB car doing this close to the White House!” loud enough that reporters overhear. That’d be fun.

Great — because the problem with their old lineup is that it was not broad enough. There used to be this awesome car company who just made three different sizes of the same thing ... what ever happened to them?

Agreed. We all want to have our cake and eat it too. But this isn’t one of those situations — you can, and at this weight range, it’s called the BRZ. I confess that I have also thought what the author thought. But then I’ve also admitted to myself that I only want the extra power because it’s extra power, not…

So, wow — that was some alarmingly professional-grade campaigning for student body president. We did not have that when I was in college...

Love the F-15. I think the F-14 is always going to be my number 1, and I may love the F-16 as much as the F-15, but hands down, I like all three way more than the new F-22 and F-35. Just on looks that is, but then, as a civilian, that’s all I’m ever going to have to worry about judging them on.
