I suppose it's cool... If you're not in the Abu Dhabi police force.

So this is the Audi A-Short, completing the lineup of Audi Tall, Audi Grande, and Audi Venti.

...or you could kill us all in some sort of runaway nuclear reaction, you madman.

For automatic shifters with a small gate for manual changes, gearchanges should be in the same direction as those WRC sequential shifters, i.e. pull back to upshift and push forward to downshift. It saddens me every time I see the push to upshift (which is the majority of those manu-matic gates). I think Mazda and…

I'd call it the BMW //M-inivan. I can only imagine what such a beast would weigh.

So things get a lot better for first/business class. The real news would be if coach (aka. scum class) got treated like people instead of sardines. In this day and age, I'll get entertainment from my iPad (which has a bigger screen anyway) and gladly exchange that screen for proper legroom. I'm not tall (only 6ft) but…

8) No V12. As President, I would want the LF-A V10 in my limo. Afterwards, I would enact a law requiring that Toyota have a LF-A V10 option for all their cars.

This movie should get all the Oscars for that "VTEC kicked in, yo" captioned screenshot. I don't want to look for it but I feel it's posting will be inevitable.

Hah, they actually MAKE those? I was just kidding around!

So, what Tesla needs is a Francis Underwood to handle the political side. Then they're golden, plus Tesla can make extra dough with the new "House of Cars" Netflix exclusive.

Agreed. It sounds like it may be a problem for certain Asian markets, but the NA market has spoken, and vanity rules.

I wish they could just summon a piece of that enthusiast history again.

I think that's it, so that the layman doesn't feel like they're moving backwards when the upgrade from their C300 to a C200 Turbo (or whatever the designations are), even though the smaller, newer engine makes equivalent or greater power.

Somewhere deep in the bowels of jalopnik, a 'purist' is bemoaning those poseurs with gated manuals. Real men have a separate shifter for every gear (and I'm hoping a separate clutch for each lever).

I pretty much did a hostile takeover of my brother's Nintendo DS to play this. Absolutely amazing game, love the variety it provides, along with some classic Kart courses, too.

Ironically it's typically a German car that maneuvers as you described.

I hope that it is not. I think the F-Type can safely take the spot that the outgoing XK-RS tried to fill, that race car kind of image. This way, Jaguar can focus on making the XK a true GT car, instead of some half-baked sports GT or something like that. Want a sports car? F-Type. Want a comfortable, but fast cruiser?…

I'm pretty sure I got more worked up about the One:1 and the new Mazda2 concept than I did about this. Only thing I expect from flight attendants is friendly and prompt service (99% of my questions directed to flight attendants are, "May I have another beer, please?). If the ladies are okay with wearing that, so be…

Now that I think about it, this new Mazda2 would be a great platform to introduce a more aggressive Mazdaspeed 2, to compete with the Fiesta ST. I think this design would look very cool dressed up (or down, depending on your perspective) as Mazdaspeed.

It's good news for those who don't have vast sums of oil money stashed away. The new Zonda? Really cool looking. The new Maserati? Very pretty. This new Mazda2? The most exciting, since it can be bought by proles like me.
