Remember all that BS last week about how affordable this car was going to be to buy from Chevrolet. Something about $55,000...

And still zero resources spent getting drivers to look up from their cell phones.

You‘re in luck.

Powering cars with gunpowder, like solid rocket engines?

Each year, your car gets older, and your insurance company reduces the amount of money they are willing to pay for damage or loss of that vehicle through depreciation. BUT, they continue taking the SAME amount of money from you, because your premium NEVER goes down.

If you want to have California dictate policy to the rest of the country...

...having found an unused wanker engine, covered in dust, on the back shelf in the warehouse, Tetsu set forth to blow it up, just like all the wanker engines that went before it...

Which digit position and what character designates “Manual Transmission?

You are aware that GM has a division called “Chevrolet Performance”, right? And that they offer crate engines and crate transmissions, right? For instance, the FWD F40 crate 6 speed manual transmission for use with the LTG 2.0 liter turbocharged crate engine, as is found in the Camaro... ...to put that engine into a FW

“Building a Skid Plate Is Surprisingly a Ton of Work”

I’m waiting for the speech about how the non-catalyst lawn mower engine running the generator is environmentally friendly.

I hope the three of them (Subaru, Ford, and Chrysler) destroy each other going after that 200,000 unit per year niche market, while Ford and Chrysler abandon more mainstream market segments like small FWD two door cars and sedans of any size.

“We are capable of creating engine to answer such demands for more power, but at the moment we have no plan to do it.”

It’s not new thematically, other than being made by GM. There’s nothing there to prove. There’s nothing meaningful going on there.

The news said “it is illegal to ‘keep’ the money”.

Am I to understand that, by contrast, there are “off-the-rack” Ferraris available for immediate purchase, stacked up somewhere like cord wood, ready for someone to walk in with a suitcase full of hundred dollar bills, and ready to drive off the lot right this second?

What was the claim during all that Cal-Exit saber rattling?

Mark McCormick would like to talk to Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus for stealing the design of the Cody Coyote. In fact, I am pretty sure that was the plot of the premier episode of that series in 1983.

No, Chevy did not make the 1986 Chevrolet Corvette Indy. Nor did GM make the 1983 Fisher Body Theme Car, the 1984 Chevrolet Citation IV, the 1984 Pontiac GM80 Firebird, the 1985 Buick Wildcat, the 1985 Cadillac Cimaron PPG, the 1986 GM F100 Elan Concept, the 1986 Pontiac Trans Sport Concept, the 1987 Pontiac Pursuit,

1988-1997 would have been the time period they were feeding the 60's, 70's, and early 80's prototype race car styling into their production cars, from concept cars like the Corvette Indy:
