God do I hate forced corporate acronyms designed to encourage employee motivation and moral but in reality come across as useless, corporate bullshit:

For $42k? Lol, I don’t need to test drive it. It’s just incredibly over priced. There’s a number of better cars for that money: like a loaded WRX. Hell, I could get an STi for $42k almost. Or a Mustang or a BRZ86 or a Miata... Or an etc, etc.. ***yawn***

People who aren’t car people.

Union Jack taillights and black wheels (srsly, fuck the hell off black wheel trend) on a bloated German car pretending to be a tiny British car.

$22k for a delorean?!?!!? Hell no!!! I wouldn’t pay- oh, wait, $22k CANADIAN. Sure, I’d pay $220 for a delorean.

Wrong. “Cruise control” is... Wait for it: cruise control. Not “autopilot”. That’s why its called “CRUISE CONTROL”. It’s not elluding to ANYTHING else other than setting a fixed speed on the freeway. Unlike the term autopilot. Have you ever read a story of someone setting “cruise control” and then napping? Nope! But…

Saying modern motorcycles need to “evolve” into bicycles with motors in order to survive is like saying modern cars need to evolve into Model T’s to survive.

I’m just waiting for a tesla “autopilot” victim to finally sue tesla for it’s garbage, horribly misinformed, hyperbolic term “autopilot”. It’s not autopilot. It’s driver assist and autopilot, no matter how many disclaimers tesla includes in its activation, is NOT AUTOPILOT.

You are a fucking moron. A thin skinned billionaire used his billions to get away with libel.

And the Musk dick suckers cum up for oxygen just long enough to reply. Good on ya, mate!

“it’s clear that’s all just part of a whitewashing effort to help the country rebrand itself, even as it represses its citizens and even murders them.”

“It’s function over aesthetics.”

I completely agree with you that anybody that’s truly interested in the new Supra ain’t cross shopping it with anything else.

Followup: and I assume the “author” of this garbage is consistant in their nonsense logic: So you must also be anti seat belts and anti motorcycle helmets too? Jesus.

This is by far the worst jalopnik article I’ve ever read. The “rape” analogy is a fucking bridge too far and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Because it’s a BMW.

This is a great comment and almost verbatim what I would have posted (if I sat at my desk F5'ing jalopnik for the most recent post).

““As we bring a new worker to the company, maybe someone who has come from a high-tech background, or a smaller company maybe not in the corporate world and they’re used to different work styles and different work schedules, we want to make sure we can accommodate all of the people we are trying to attract to the…

Thanks for reiterating my point. If a company as massive as VW couldn't pull off the "upmarket" turn, why does Mazda think it can?
