ND for the top alone. It’s the automotive equivalent of stuffing a sock in your underwear. She’s gonna recognize it’s not really a convertible sooner than you think.

This photographer is known more for his photos of Bigfoot.

Yep. It works.

This one easily goes to the 1769 Cugnot Steamer. Sure, lots of us dreamed of ditching horses and having our carriages propel themselves, we just hoped it wouldn’t be directly into a building.

My car gives similar feedback on driver performance, but it’s all based on what smells get produced.

The thought crossed my mind, but I didn’t want to go that route for two reasons - 1. The 5th Gen looked backward in design, breaking a Camaro-specific trend of NEVER doing that. Each generation of Camaro was a noticeable departure from its roots, love it or hate it. The 5th gen was too dependent on nostalgia and 2. As

It was a lot harder to work on, but the 4th Gen Camaro/Firebird was a pretty amazing step forward in terms of design, aerodynamics, power (especially when the LS came along) and more. 4th Gen Trans Ams got a little too close to the Corvette in performance for GM’s taste, and they really represented a fun twilight era

Nobody’s gonna suggest a classic?!

As an optimist, I like to appreciate how far the British have come since the dark days of Lucas electronics. In 1974, signaling a left turn could cause anything from no lights at all to random complete electrical failures to universe-swallowing quantum singularities. A little headache from a mere paradox is a small

First Gen Toyota Celica. I owned a 1976 Celica GT Liftback for a while. Pretty impressive for a car made in 1976 to have:

Oh sure, pile on Tesla, but give the motorized cart company a pass when it comes to its autopilot feature. 

This is a tough one since I co-host a podcast on movie cars (shameless plug, check out Reels and Wheels!), but I keep coming back to Sorcerer. Friedkin was taken by South American truck culture where the trucks got names and adornments. The two trucks in the movie, Lazaro and Sorcerer (both GMC M211's), become more

This would seem to have implications for people with classic cars from anywhere, yes? If a car doesn’t meet safety standards for American roadways even though it’s old enough to be classified as an antique, then if this goes unchallenged, theoretically, RI could invalidate registrations on older vehicles that don’t

Trick question! I love my 1968 Cutlass. It sounds amazing. It’s a beast and extremely fun to drive. It is (IMHO) a gorgeous car with just the right amount of chrome and body lines that would be at home in an art museum. It’s also a bit of a deathtrap and likely slower than most new cars.

“Ralph Nader’s book killed the Corvair.”

I cannot help but ponder the implications of a TFG-powered FC Jeep.

The frustrating part here is that if the Suez Canal gave some smaller ships a chance, I think it would find them just as/if not more satisfying.

I just can’t NP this. I had one of these. An ‘87. I bought it for $250 in 2008 with a blown engine and swapped in a lower mileage 5.0 for still less than 1/3 the price of this. Save up a few more bucks and get the facelifted version of this Bronco - better looking about better equipped.

Must have been nice being able to get new tires at a bicycle shop...

I want to meet whoever scripted this to make a full length movie. You just can’t beat moments like:
