As much as I despise Toyota for being the progenitor in the coming and current beigekreig (what would that be in Japanese??) this is just a complete clusterfunk. I'd happily pay money for a good unmoletested alltrac and swap to a modern engine. But swapping to an engine that is neither modern, nor in the front, nor…

Matt, I respect your reaction here because the author omitted the truth to promote a car. However, the DRIVE network (not officially a part of Jalopnik but pretty ingrained) aligns with journalists that openly don't care if they get to drive the car for ten hours or ten minutes(check the podcasts). So, given any…

Truthfully, every manufacturer has let me down at one time or another. Some for offering only automatics where standards should do the leg work (I'm looking at you BMW), others where great products are cheapened for market saturation (ahem...VAG), and still more for various offenses. However, the most significant…

I guess I'd look at it this way:

Because even without the batteries, the car is significantly heavier now. Your 1992 Civic might have had an airbag. It didn't have 12. It might have had 4-speakers. It didn't have a sound system. It might have had an engine computer and a couple of door modules. It surely didn't have the 40 or so required of most…

Finally got around to watching the video. Whether or not the Porsche driver could see the Delta Wing, what the hell was he doing?

No, not necessarily. Depending on what tier you are already in, cost could be at parity. And in my case yes, electric might save me money, but that just ain't gonna happen with my apartment and the fact that I realize I how much damage electric cars really do to the environment.

No, because I live in an Apt. and my power bill is already too high. I'd rather walk for a gas powered car I can drive once a month. Maybe a McLaren P1? Or even a Focus ST would be awesome.

I met Mr. Economaki when I won his aspiring young auto journo award back in 2006. I was flown out to the Long Beach Grand Prix and spent a few days and a few dinners talking to him.

Funny that a presenter in a country that has snow lined roads, given a car with a good deal of power and less that current traction, and a mentionable price tag, makes no note of the circumstances within which the car drives. Either Ferraris were much less temperamental about snow back then with their lower HP rating,…

I think this video deserves a drinking game. For ever F40, 456, and California, take a sip of beer. For every Enzo and 612 take a shot. And then, for every Daytona, Dino, and other classically rare ferrari take a 4-horseman.

I almost fell off of my sofa while reading this. And it takes a lot of laughter to fall off a damned sofa Mr. Torchinsky. So I thank you for your great writing, but my laptop is rather afraid of your next article.

I'd say yes, but only because racecar. The driveability and differential noise would be nearly louder than that beautiful exhaust, and I think I'd miss my stereo. Besides, New Haven roads would probably gut the underbody diffuser like a fish by the second pothole.

Yeah, I'm also noticing that the fire isn't coming from the engine compartment AT ALL. And there isn't that much within the cabin of a tahoe that is so massively combustible unless he was doing something pretty illicit.

Really not surprising considering the Acura front end that looked like the Pontiac beak up until recently. Maybe Honda really believe Malaise era GM will sell with better fuel economy.

Maybe it is the mathematical representation of action within the article, but are you talking about a bit of trail braking into the corner to position the car and then releasing the brake before the apex to carry speed through the apex?

Yeah, I'm in general agreement here. This is a clichéd piece almost all the way through. A writer (you could input basically anyone who doesn't get paid that much) is invited out to an event above his pay grade by a wealthy women. The advances are presumed to be lustful (and probably were) and he rewards the favor by…

To be fair, there were a lot LESS cops breaking the rule in this video and they do have some carte-blanche with regards to traffic patterns (you don't believe me, watch a high-speed chase). Beyond that, I really believe, through my time here, that people in New England, and New York and the surrounding areas, take any…

Pardon my ignorance, but didn't the russians have a similar system back in the cold war on the werewolf attack helicopter? When was the Airsix73 made?

Yeah, Pro Touring cars are the ones I'd most like to drive as they are the most drivable. No way I'd want one as a trailer queen. Besides, they hardly ever offer a return on the money invested for the build. So, better to drive it and enjoy the craftsmanship.
