Agreed. Although, the more these videos are reported on, the more I’m wanting a whole exterior camera recording, so that there’s no doubt. A driving telemetrics overlay would also help seal a court case quickly.

“I’m beginning to think there is something very wrong with the way GM does business if they don’t find it worthwhile to continue building a good car that outsells many of its competitors in the segment.”

It really amazes me how much prowess went into making this car, for it to be put out to pasture 5 minutes after hitting the streets. Like what happened with Chrysler and the 200 in 2013: You just got done spending all that cash, and the second the door closes behind the next child leaving the nest, it’s been pushed…

Beyond being the only person for potentially thousands of miles that can say they have one of these, why go for this when you can find newer US MkIV GTIs with the same engine (or the VR6), interior and tech much more sorted, etc., and never have to worry about the long arm of the law? Even if this car were once…

Except that dockless big wheels would be awesome and far more plausible than pogo sticks. My sense of morbid fascination is kicking in, wondering how in the F someone pitched this to anyone on the right side of a psychiatric eval and got money for it. I can’t wager that the sum was too much, as throwing some Rustoleum…

ehyaaaaa...don’t know what to think of this. The cars look good, and not overly festooned like high-perf Vs from last generation. But those are HELLA power decreases; bad enough that it hearkens back to the Malaise Era when there were massive power decreases from generation to the very next; but at least that was…

The Journey is definitely a value/cash-on-hood type of car purchase. The fully loaded GT models “sticker” in the $35-38k range, but I’d be amazed if you couldn’t get it down to $30k...$28k even. Too bad it has terrible crash ratings, because for a 3-row that has cheap access to 283hp, a good-enough interior with…

My honest assessment is, if you’re not going to get the SI, get a Mazda3. Somewhat worse infotainment, yes, but they look so much classier, are much more mature inside, and you get almost 30hp more (not sure if Mazda is still offering the manual in 3S-GTs though). The Mazda3S-GT is plenty sporty, and the chassis is…

His Accord has to be an LX, because I daily drive an ‘01 I4 EX cloth (same color interior), and is a low-end EX with a couple more things on it (from what I can make out of these pictures) such as the moonroof. That said, I do realize that moonroofs are trim-independent options many times, so it’s possible it’s an…

Those runaway ramps are feet deep loose gravel and sand. They would probably stop a runaway M1 Abrams.

Ya, I’d take this one over the OP’s selection, based on the hood alone. I stopped finding cowl induction hoods cool after age 12, and particularly when they started filling the windshields of Fox body and later/3rd-gen and later Mustangs and Camaros. Like a lot of things on cars, such things only ever look good/decent …

With a truck like this, the question isn’t whether one of the tiny-ego’d ‘Murka types will fly a flag from the back everywhere they go, but how many. I’m putting my bet on 3, one of which will be the battle livery of a defeated traitor-state...

This story seems to fit with how many GM projects have ultimately gone over after a bit too much waiting when the market had moved, and then blitzing that gap with high technology that then misses the mark because it’s a combination of ahead-its-time (V8-6-4) and/or late-to-the-party (Northstar OHC). GM screwing…

I got emphysema just looking at that.

I’m quite surprised it took this long, too, what with #MeToo, #Mute, etc. What makes it even stranger is the fact that this was bubbling in the news and pop culture back in the early 90s. I vividly remember MJackson making a national statement on video that he didn’t do these things, that it’s a huge…

I can’t say I agree that Chappelle’s Show’s skit normalized or gave an implicit OK to R. Kelly’s behavior. As Neal Brennan says, it’s not like they could bring R. Kelly up on charges or arrest him, or even provide evidence (beyond Kelly’s squad threatening Chappelle’s, but that can just imply litigiousness).

Yes Americans are bigger than ever, but CUVs and SUVs have been making big sales strides for years, everywhere, including Europe and Asia. So “tall wagons” are most definitely en vogue and have been trending further and further that way since 2002.

It’s really not hard to believe that, for example, a pathetic tiny man like Dinesh D’Souza would make a garbage “movie” filled with sub-intellectual brain vomit that’s “just asking questions, man”.

Ya but you’re talking about a film crafted as an attempt to move Christian evangelism mainstream, by mimicking the trappings of *good* films. So GND is going out of its own way to make itself relevant.

The BoD *would* be the body to oversee this...but I think the reason they end up being “yes” men for him is because he’s likely wealthier than most of them, AND because he’s their ticket to more wealth in a burgeoning segment, bolstered by the fact that Elon is tackling the transportation issue from all angles, not…
