Early Range Rovers get a pass, since in that case, "sport" had a different connotation.

Has 375 hp. Must be sporty?

Sorry, Spinelli, but your choice of the Yugo is just flat-out wrong. It is almost always more fun to drive a slow car fast than to drive a fast car (relatively) slow. Similarly, it is almost always more fun to flog a small, lightweight, slow car than a larger, heavier, slow car.

No troll-baiting here—I was actually just looking for a picture of a car with a worse use of duct tape. And I did find one, but I was kind of freaked out by all the pictures of Mustangs, almost to the exclusion of any other car, and so I forgot to post the pic.

Sigh. And the Wrangler continues to inch toward becoming a legitimate competitor in the full-size SUV class...

I did a search on google images for "tape stripe" and in the first ten pages of results, nearly every picture that was of a car, was of a Mustang. Weird.

Honestly, Merlin probably would have made a better CEO than Roger Smith. Although Merlin's appetite for penlite batteries might have rivaled Smith's appetite for individually packaged chocolate pudding snacks.

Okay. Honestly, maybe this was Chevy's inspiration.

Oh I don't know, they look like something that would have come on a cheap toy I played with when I was a kid?

Honestly, in the teaser shot, the LEDs-buried-under-layers-of-red-plastic taillights look like something out of an electronic toy from the '70s.

If you ask me, he was just checking the, uh, s... specs on the end line for the rotary girder.

IIRC, the Indian GP is provisionally set for October. No way do I see HRT lasting that long. Sponsors simply will not pay to have their name on a car that doesn't make the main event. But without the sponsors' money, HRT will be unable to develop a car capable of making the main event. It all hinges on the next…

The 412 is kind of a proto-Phaeton. After all, it was VW's first attempt to move upmarket, offering a larger car loaded with "luxury" features such as air-conditioning and ... erm, air-conditioning. Also, quad headlights!

This. While other cars are described in how few years they were sold, this one can be described in how few laps it completed (I do not think it will make triple digits), or even worse, in how few races it competed (I'm thinking the answer to this is going to be zero—if they fail to qualify again in Malaysia, what few…

I don't know—moving from IRL or dirt track to NASCAR makes some sense. But rally to NASCAR? Hell, F1 to NASCAR makes more sense than rally to NASCAR. The only thing I can figure is that this must be what Kimi is going to use to unwind...

There's only one Bubba who can impersonate a police officer and get away with it...

Apparently, Kimi's attitude toward NASCAR has changed over the last year and a half.

*shrugs* Camping with my kids at Yosemite a few years ago, I remember the nearest gas station was almost $2/gal more than any other station I saw while I was in California. I also remember thinking what a pain in the ass it must have been for the tanker truck to deliver to that station.

Thanks. My 240 is nothing to get too excited about at the moment (though I'm working on getting a B230FT/M46 combo to drop in there) and the V70 is just a bone-stock DD. The Duett should be pretty cool when I get it done, but I'm not expecting to have it on the road until the summer of 2012. I've got a Simca…

It's an Espada.
