    Possible unpopular opinion: When are eyeliner wheels going away?

    Agreed. My opinion of him declines every day he gets further from his Jalopnik days and closer to being crawled up inside an infotainment center. It’s a friggin’ performance car, who gives a shite about hearing 10 minutes on the bizzarely giddy ramblings of a man who discovered you can monitor your dog’s heart rate in

    Dammit! I was so close.

    I own a very similar 100% stock 2013 with 40k miles, have never vaped or been in an accident with it and don’t wear a flat brimmed hat. I’m now wondering if the mere act of not effing with something as luxurious as a Subaru could actually translate into a profit?

    I was thinking the same thing. While I love the man and his writing, the narrative of the ‘bullet proof’ Jeep vs the reality of the theme/purpose of every one of his posts (fixing said Jeeps) seem to be a bit at odds. I have no dog in this fight, but something tells me the term ‘unkillable’ would likely be better used

    Not so sure here. So a guy outside the US building a log home, assembling it with wooden pegs he’s bringing to the job site as a bundle of firewood?That’s an electric chainsaw, by the way. I suppose?

    This would involve:

    It’s almost always worth paying more for good service/advice. We are now all paying the price (and bitching) as a result of having forgotten about that. We’ve made our bed.

    The gap between marketing folk and the folk they are trying to appeal to frequently leads to comedy.

    I didn’t know Jerry was doing ‘Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee’ in 1994?

    I am not French and even if you think this car is fugly (I disagree), you can’t tell me it’s not 18,734x better looking than the Type R.

    It’s coming:

    I’ve always wanted to rent a car from one of those places and take it up through desert mountain passes as God intended. I’ve always wondered if I would’ve been the first person to use it for that purpose. Has anyone here ever rented from one of these places?

    Eh, either rent a pickup or pay a ticket - it all comes out in the wash.

    Sounds like the BRZ with more power. Honest question: have sales on that been over/underwhelming vs expectation?

    Does the gap between my overall dislike for 911s, which I see as squashed Beetles with a diesel sewing machine for an engine, and unbridled admiration I have for these gorgeous Singer works of art know no bounds?

    Right, so it must handle worse.

    I get they’re durable and have a lot of torque, but the whole “aren’t I cool for wanting a diesel wagon” thing is getting a bit old here. If I’m going for a European wagon, I want one that would be seen in the BTCC or some such.

    The front fender is weird. Reminds of the rear fender of a 60s/70s Bronco - the part everyone modifies.
