Wow, I figured you were BSing. CarGurus doesn’t let you do a nationwide search on new vehicles, but AT is loaded with listings like this one:

I know my states lemon law stuff pretty well so I just documented and documented until the requirements were met :)

I still don’t understand why the Abarth didn’t get a detuned version of the 1.7L from the 4C.  That seemed like such an obvious choice for the car.

I don’t know if the reason’s the same here, but if you walk past literally any 500 abarth, the paint above the logo will be cut because it’s very sharp on the back and the factory paint is garbage. Mine was repainted 4-5 times (entire front fascia) before fiat bought it back. I miss the car, but I do not miss dealing…

Lobster Thermidor au Crevette with a Mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top. Hold the Spam.

I was thinking about one of those big platters with the nuggets but this works too.

Giant bag of Chik-fil-a sandwiches.

Assorted wraps platter and salad tray seems to be the standard ‘round these parts.

Interesting idea. I can already imagine micro-transactional gameplay, such as “$0.99 to play a mission on GTAV” or “$0.25/min access to Red Dead Redemption”, for example. Would really lean into the casual gamer who maybe doesn’t want to pay $69.99 for Madden 2020, but might pay $0.99 for a one-time online match with a…

Bad take. The videos they do fucking with cars are hilarious. My favorite:

so relieved to see this wasnt Onion(“lifeOD”)‘s video. that dude doesnt deserve the views

That’s a ton of R&D and a big financial risk for a relatively low-volume car, especially in today’s tiny sports car market, which is why Toyota’s been splitting the bill with this sort of partnership.

Oh how exciting. This totally changes my desire to buy this car when I can take out a new, modern engine and replace it with an old and abused one. 

I think these are pretty close.  And with the VQ V6, they’re very reliable and plenty fast...

He sued a fellow comedian for $200 million last year, so it’s been spicy to say the least. 

I was thinking about Maddox the other day, what happened to that guy

A legal podcast I used to listen to (RIP Mic Dicta, you were too good for this world) did a segment on some dispute Maddox was having, and he is apparently still doing the same schtick nearly 20 years later. It is the saddest thing.

It’s like if 2002 Maddox stripped away any semblance of irony and 2005 Simmons maxed out the Sports Bro persona to run a sports blog together in 2019.

I’m such a Deadspin fanboy that I hate Barstool Sports despite the fact that I’ve never visited their site.

Weirdly electrically assisted bikes have been huge hit here in Finland. Partially because legistlation recently allowed cycling in national parts, so fat people can now go where before you could only hike. Also they are hugely popular with commuters.
