I keep considering buying another one before they get too pricy, but then the memories usually slap me back into reality. Somehow I managed to drive it across the country before I had a cell phone (not that it would have worked for most of the trip). There’s probably an alternate universe where my body is decomposing…

He’s not wrong. I can’t help but think if his comments were made by a up-and-coming director in their 20s it would be less “old man yells at cloud” and more “we’re tired of algorithms showing us the status quo.”

When I bought a Corrado I didn’t even know about the spoiler at the time. I saw it in the rear view mirror once and though, “huh, hadn’t noticed that.” When I parked, it was gone, and I thought I was going crazy. Then I found the switch under the steering wheel and it became my favorite toy of all the 1990s. I miss…

There are better ways to make a case for prison reform than from the perspective of a sociopathic narcissist already parlaying her experience into a book deal. Sure, Sorokin’s statement that prison is a “huge waste of time” is true, but that means something completely different to her than to a criminal capable of…

I think there are several reasons car dealerships haven’t gone online, despite those dastardly interwebs upending literally every other retail industry. Despite the obvious - not even millionaires want to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a product sight-unseen - but the demographic that has embraced exclusively…

Grab a J. C. Whitney catalog from 1964 and I’d bet this sort of turn signal assembly will be one of the tamer things you’ll find in the Beetle section.

I predict watching this drive down a flight of stairs in an upcoming Jason Bourne movie.

I don’t have $20K to spend on a car, and it might even be a little more expensive than it should be; but as you noted, every 911 inevitably reaches a point of desirability. This car will only go up in value, NP.

My guess is many of the haters don’t have a problem tuning into the Kardashians or Housewives as they parlay their - I don’t really know - into entire financial empires of uselessly overpriced products. As a school teacher, I have to assume a $20,000 donation is a pretty significant percentage of this woman’s overall…

I like that “Delaware Style Pizza” never makes these lists because it’s proof that it’s the nostalgic-laden abomination that it is, though that Trenton tomato pie looks dangerously close. I’ve had the D.C. jumbo slice both after a night of drinking in Adams Morgan and in the light of day, and I assure you it is a…

I’m always amazed that these late night shows maintain any sort of relevance. I’m well into my 40s and I’ve never watched more than five minutes of The Tonight Show, Late Show, or Late Night before flipping over to the Magic Bullet infomercial. The humor is dull even compared to the worst seasons of SNL and there…

Anna Sorokin: folk hero and fighter for the proletariat? Sure, that was her plan all along, that was real long con. I’m all for grifting rich people with healing crystals and raw water, and yeah, it’s really shitty that public companies have been allowed to exploit the pandemic response. But one crime doesn’t excuse…

This docutainment just reeks of the kind of exploitation that drags Spears back into the spotlight every few years to shake her out for a few cheap bucks. What’s worse, this streaming cash grab is pandering as if it’s out of respect for the poor woman.

Go back and look closely at the fourth photo, the one after the hood ornament. Parked between the Rolls Royce and the Mercedes is...the same DARTZ. (I thought maybe this was the DARTZ that was scribbled out in the final picture, but it’s next to a brown Rolls, and in the earlier picture the Rolls is silver.)

These things were too rich for my blood. I was stuck with my dad’s hand-me-down Rusty Tetanus Peddler. We painted it and made it look pretty sweet, and thus began my obsession with quirky beaters that make passersby go, “what is that?”

All these kids are dealing with trauma in their own way so I don’t think it’s really fair to criticize the ones lashing out at Hogg. That said, I think it’s pretty unfair to dump on him for having ambitions and starting a small business. You make it sound like every CEO is or wants to be Jeff Bezos, and that every…

Risky Business Porsche 928 wheels are my favorite of all time by far. But I’m a weirdo who misses hubcaps, especially the painted ones on older Mercedes and the little ones on air cooled VWs.

It’s just a name, and not one a growing market of younger EV owners really think highly of. Personally I thought the Chrysler Crossfire was sexy but could never get past the fact that it was a Chrysler. Sadly I think any way they try to swing it is going to sound like “This is not your father’s Oldsmobile,” which soun…

These three self-absorbed cultural shit stains are why so many unfairly yet understandably hate Millennials. I don’t mean to out-Emo the circle jerk of ironically disaffected cynicism over at Jacobin, but I’ll tell you exactly what Muncher is: he’s a Hasbro invention that wants a $29.99 plush toy under every Christmas…

There are some cars that make your friends go, “what is that?” and others than make them go, “what is that?” The TC falls into the latter. It’s not kitschy or rare enough looking to be weird. Most people will just wonder why you stuck a bunch of crest decals all over a LeBaron.
