Interesting — perhaps by “structurally alter the material” they mean “the heat generated by polishing it would, you know, sort of . . . set the wheel on fire . . . which would, ‘structurally alter’ it . . . into MgO.  So we electroplated it.”

I gave you a star solely because I am assuming this is sarcastic.  If so, you’re a comedic genius.  If not, well, holy shit.

Good gracious. Why the hell is everyone so bent out of shape over a mistaken contraction? It’s literally one of the most common typos out there. I honestly don’t understand what is different about this story than so many others where a little mistake crept in. Relax.

Well, yes.  That is how cameras work.

Thank you for conveying my thoughts.  I’d even settle for an n/a manual with awd, but if we’re making requests, then manual and awd in every trim level.

Okay. But, on the other hand, how do we know that’s not simply because your a serial killer?  Think about it.

The car still rides at its stock height for daily driving, but drops to an aggressive stance when Sampson wants to show it off. 

I’m so glad they took a picture of the front so they’ll remember what it looked like after they attempt to drive it out of that parking garage, and then have to drive it for the next two months looking totally trashed.

Holy shit.  Never knew that.  And I certainly never thought I’d learn it on Jalopnik!

This is a fleeting issue. In my experience, after about a year or so, it will no longer catch fire (certainly not twice in one day), and likely will only get hot once a month or so.

I never thought I’d find a Fiero Ferrari attractive, but by comparison to this nightmare, wow, it’s a breath of fresh air.

You see, this confuses the hell out of me. I disagree that saying “[t]he Corolla is right for you” sounds like there’s only one copy of the Corolla out there. Rather, when I hear it, it’s just saying (quite correctly) that the Corolla model is right for you. (As an aside, I agree that “the” is probably better than “a,”…

Agreed. Moreover, all of these proposed explanations that a company doing this wants to convey that there is only one Accord, etc., make no sense to me. How is saying the Accord somehow inconsistent with that? On the contrary, to me, adding the “the” makes it clear that we’re all talking about the one and only true…

And, I guess, to mention the other side of that coin — how many people who actually do identify as liberal and/or an environmentalist actually want to buy a pickup (and potentially be mistaken for a “conservative”)?

Agreed. I couldn’t put my finger on it, but, yes, for me it’s particularly in the side view. Reminds me a bit of the love child between a 370Z and a Maxima.

“If only there were an astronomically expensive two-seat v12 station wagon on the market” . . . said nobody, ever.

Huh?

The Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 S Is Now The Fastest SUV Around The Nürburgring

Kickass Jeep.

The million dollar question — how many pickup buyers want the modest fuel savings or 0-60 time enough to be willing to be mistaken for “liberal environmentalists?”
