I am disappointed though that they didn't change the suit/helmet color after Ben Collins revealed himself to be the last Stig. I kinda liked that they had black suit Stig, and then white suit Ben Collins Stig, but now we all know it's not Collins in there, but the suit is still white. I was pulling for blue suit Stig…

I'm liking the proportions of the XEF:

Oh, and then there was the time one shop tried to charge me $30 to replace my "non-functioning" horn, that they just happened to have a replacement for... the same horn that I had used while pulling into their parking lot, 'cause some jackhole tried to cut me off. Yeah, state inspections are going to get you ripped…

State licensing inspections.

Thanks for posting this up, this is exactly what I was thinking of.

Yep. Reminds me, I need to sit down with my Parkinson's suffering 63 year old mother and get her to stop driving. I don't think her Fiesta would survive this.

The download and my DVD to arrive. I've been waiting on this one for a long time.

Oh I want one. No, make that two!

I agree - I used to participate in medieval armoured combat, and we had a few deaths over the years due to things other than safety violations: heart attacks, heat stroke, etc. Looking at the numbers, the incidence of serious injury and death is far lower than many professional sports, in both the SCA and in 24HoL/CC…

I passed an Allante on the road last week while traveling for work, and in person, it was a lot better looking car than I had thought it to be. For that, NP on this one.

Don't get me wrong, love this one, but I'm far more partial to Tighten Up.

Yep. About the best way to get sideways in a FWD car.

Still my favorite mid-engined 'vette concept:

The Buick Grand National GNX from Heat Vision and Jack, ride of the super villain, Ron Silver, as Himself!

I bought a car almost specifically for my 80+ mile per day commute (admittedly, it's a Honda Fit - great gas mileage, fantastic amount of fun for what you pay for the car), I would buy a fuel efficient small vehicle that performed that duty for me so that I could read a book, take a nap, do anything other than drive…

And it was built in Texas, too, where the state truck used to be the Suburban. Now there's too many contenders, but that's still the size category of a majority of the drivers down there - the biggest effing truck they can afford.

I know of only one friend who has a mini truck these days, and he constantly gets flack for it. You can't haul much in them - the rear suspension bottoms out too fast under load - so the bed is wasted space, and not enough weight to plant the rear tires to make 'em very popular as fast vehicles. It's like having a…

And it's not even the first of May yet. (warning, definitely NSFW)

Honda's going to start building the Fits down in Mexico soon, they need to give us a Fit Type R just for the North American market as an apology for not letting us have this one.

There is nothing so great in the universe that a group of humans can't fuck it up for everybody else.
