So it only makes sense that the new Mustang should copy Aston Martin copying the Mustang, all filtered through Ford's new Aston aping design language.

10.) Darrell Waltrip's Australian "Geological Oddity"

"At the same time, there were many wealthy costumers"

Micro machines, these ones in particular. They sit now on my desk at work because I, apparently, have yet to grow up. I keep my larger version, 1:1 scale, at my apartment or the drive way of my parents when it's not working.

Was just up in a stunt plane for work. A MX2 if I recall: 300 HP and all carbon fibre. It was pretty fun. I didn't know where I was for half the time, it was all sky then ground then more sky and the pilot telling me we're doing this maneuver then the other. If I get time I might post something about it on opp, but…

I said (read wrote) it before and I'll say (ditto the first parenthetical statement) it again: the average car consumer doesn't care enough about cars to have a cohesive desire. They want everything all at once, a car that can do everything a minivan can do, looks like a sports car (who cares about performance [and I…

Meat popsicle? I guess that wouldn't work for energy based beings though. We could just shorten it to popsicle. A clump of atoms that has a short span of existence in it's state? Sounds like life to me.

I love that logo and routinely fantasize about going and getting myself a cold Boss Black at the vending machine. Unfortunately I now live thousands of kilometres away so the trip remains only in my mind and my life is the poorer for it.

I'm going to jump in with the contrarians and say sometimes no world building is just better. One of the things that really gets to me with some fantasy is the lengths authors go to make sure you see in your head exactly what they see in their head, so there is always a modifier before every noun. So maybe the first…

How did hit to pass and mud drags not make the list?

But, doesn't that just make the sun set magical. and thus so much cooler? You're watching a non-existent beauty slowly fade into the reality of night. It's day slowly taking off it's day slipping out of it's non existent dress to reveal for you the beauty of what it really looks like behind that fake blue sky. It's so…

I know I can run through open door and out into the friendly streets, but I know I would be punished at length for this transgression. What I don't know is if he's upstairs pacing, or if that's just an audio track of his heavy footfalls.

Highly-populated, small island nation criss-crossed with tight, twisty roads: let me show you how deep the rabbit hole really goes.

So Mazda is taking over the mini of yore, and took over the British roadster over twenty years ago. I think I would be correct in saying Mazda is the new UK auto industry.

Or GERTY in Moon. Despite seeming ominous at some points it does seem to want the best for Sam.

That's a great point. I probably couldn't drive that car fast enough for it to be fun for me; I don't think I have the balls or the skills. My car is a lot less capable, but I have fun in it. It's a car I may outgrow, driving-wise. I'm good with that because I feel like the Skyline is a car I may never grow into, and…

Why not go all the way and say gears? Between CVT and electric motors, gears have their days numbered. Were they allowed the cars in F1 would be running CVTs because they keep the engine at optimal RPMs and the driver does't have to think about shifting at all. Put a CVT on a Ferrari and the posers and track rats…

My master cylinder went on my RX-7 and I had to drive it home much the same way. I got stuck stopping on an uphill though, where my starter didn't have the grunt to get me going. Luckily I could let it roll backward and popped into a parking lot where I was able to ge the thing going again and off I went. There was a…

Or, more specifically, 2014 spring debut.

Duesenbergs, Continentals and Ford GT40's.
