I just found that the Foundation books were way too reductive. 'Here's a planet of people who all have the same personality characteristics!' I haven't read them for 15+ years, but I remember the Foundation books just being tedious, a philosophy treatise crudely jammed into a scifi book.

Ivan the Terrabus?

Also we aren't getting the wagon even though they're debuting it in Los Angeles. WTF.

Manual shifting is over rated these days. "Computer is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?" [Bad F1 joke.] Plus, you have the added benefit of having both hands on the wheel. Join us in the 21st century, Jalop! I have 25 years of car ownership under my belt, all being manual. I've finally…

Last time I checked, the only people with R's that got into the 11's were running every last imaginable bolt on, new HPFP, and running E85, Meth, or 100 octane.

Only problem is that it looks like it was designed by 8 different people who never actually met each other until GM signed off on it.

Americans have no appreciation for sleepers. A wagon that can climb quickly to 60mph AND take turns in the twisties don't appeal to this land of knuckle draggers. If it doesn't have flames on the sides, bling rims, loud exhausts, and fake port holes, it won't sell.

Just like the three-door Golf R, the wagon (which they call "Variant" for some very German reason) version has a 2.0-liter direct-injection turbo four putting down all that power to each of its giant 18-/19-inch wheels through a six-speed DSG and VW's 4MOTION permanent AWD system.

No , Hellcat is 707 hp of Italy made in Canada. The Gt350 will be out of sight before Hellcat owners get their bald tires to find traction.

Challenger would get raped endlessly...it's way heavier, softer, more flexible...compared to this thing and a Z/28 it would be embarrassing.

Oh sure they could. She was a victim of a tall concrete curb that was surely installed by a MAN to keep women down, etc, etc

"YOU ARE TEARING ME APART, KEN" —tires

"We buy things"? WE???????? What a silly headline. The story is about a relatively small number of people with the latest iPhones who buy things with them. It has no impact on the rest of us and may never do so.

John Oliver has a great piece on Civil Forfeiture:

Porsche doesn't have a sense of humor.

A7 TDI...they didn't say "affordable"

On her very first car trip ever, Bertha Benz was not wearing panties.

I like Russell Wilson, but this has nothing to do with racing.
