Sorry, I had to laugh when I read that Flav was in a Hyundai when he got stopped. Not exactly "the ultimate homeboy car," now is it?

That's because it was Chuck's Ninety-Eight.

Civic, 911, and Wrangler? What are you people—on dope? Each of these models improved over time and then became bloated caricatures of their former brilliant selves. There may be disagreement on which generation of each was the best, but rest assured it is not the most recent. The current Wrangler Unlimited is

My wife owns an '06 XC90 and I like it enough that I recently bought an '05. They are absolute bargains in the used-car world (as long as you avoid the notoriously problematic T6), coming in significantly cheaper than comparable age/mileage XC70s with mostly better utility (though it is harder to load stuff on the

Swedish sauna? Hate to burst your bubble, Travis, but the sauna is a Finnish invention.

I agree, the Accord is on the decline these days. If the question had been "What car has made the greatest rise and fall since it was first introduced?" then I'd put the Accord on that list. The 1st-gen Accord was not a great car—many quality problems, particularly with the early CVCC engines. They made great

As a fan of French cars and AMC products, it pains me to admit it, but the Alliance was bad. My folks had one, an '83 in fact, and it was just not a good car. Not that the concept was bad, nor was most of the design—but the execution was terrible.

This, this, a thousand times this!

Not sure that this is the one I'd pick, but it was the first idea that popped into my head when I saw the question. Excellent call!

You are aware that Schumacher didn't know anything about Senna's accident (aside from the fact that there had been an accident), as the teams chose not to tell the drivers until some time after the podium ceremony, right? Maybe it was in poor taste to be up on the podium smiling the day after Ratzinger's death, but

This car probably has more cocaine residue than that coketastic '80s Plymouth Turismo Duster ad.

There is either more to this story or the cop who arrested him is incredibly obtuse. To have probable cause to arrest under the statute requires more than the mere existence of a hidden compartment. It requires probable cause to believe that the compartment was constructed with the *intent* to use it for

I don't know why, but there's something about this pic that reminds me of Jar Jar Binks.

It was actually a DS, but yeah, I had a little sadness too.

Not sure why this is Jalopnik-worthy news. Not sure why the family was checking out the driver's Twitter account while at the hospital.

Incidentally, the word you are looking for is "populace," not "populous."

This actually isn't as crazy as people are making it out to be. On the civil side, these two could be liable to the girl's estate on a "negligent entrustment" theory. Yes, you can be held civilly liable if you knowingly provide a drunk person with a car and keys to that car. Moreover, if the Pilot had belonged to

Sorry, Torchinsky, but this is one of those situations where the "basic round light" looks much better than the "Euro style" oval lamps which, IMO, give the front end an unwelcome T-Bird look.

Yep, the fake diffuser thing is terrible.
