Most people who drive SUVs would be better off with a Mini Van.

The reason jeeps are called mall crawlers is because that’s where we all see 90% of them. Don’t be a baby! If it’s true, it’s true.

20 years from now, today’s marketing material will also be cringe. Hell, the word “cringe” will likely be... well... cringe in 20 years. Or whatever word replaces “cringe”. 

All marketing material is cringy and always has been. These are neat historical documents, but I don’t see anything particularly egregious here. 

It is ok to think of your automobile as an appliance.  For most of the general driving public your car is a way to get from point A to point B.  We don’t all have to be enthusiasts.

you’re wrong.

Just curious how you can have that take when you cut the roof off of your 911 to install a carbon fiber panel. I mean, I’m cool with it, it is your car and you do you, but it just feels a little hypocritical to call out companies that modify a car when you are doing the same heckin’ thing.

So does Gawker force you to have “wild takes” to drive readership?

Talk to an employee of Tesla if you want to know how Mr. Elon Musk’s White Nationalism is killing off new car sales, except from Tesla Fanboys...

The BRZ exists and is happy to fulfill your needs without paying the Porsche tax.  Though you will have to learn to vape.  

Jalopnik was better before Gawker bought it.

Jalopnik writing staff has really fallen off over the years.

Nissan MID4, it was this close to be Nissan’s first mid-engine sportcar instead of crazy rare and expensive R390 GT1, and also much more earlier than NSX NA1 / NA2

You are an absolutely insufferable Porsche purist zealot, and your opinion is wrong, like all opinions of Porsche purist zealots.

This is a pretty gate-keepery bad take. I thought you were all about letting the people enjoy their cars they way they want to.

That seems like dumb luck if she has managed to back into things three times. Next time it could be a kid (think of the CHILDREN).

Then she needs to not have a license at all. 

In one test scenario that involved vehicles backing into the path of an oncoming car, AAA found that the reverse AEB system only prevented one in 40 crashes....Despite that catastrophic success rate, vehicles still braked in 65 percent of the scenarios.

I’ve seen similar scare-mongering Facebook posts for a Chevy Volt battery quote from a dealer. It was obviously a “we don’t want your business quote” since I was able to google a full replacement for 1/3 the price.

Its a dealership thing,... I’ve seen plenty of situations where a dealership will tell you that you need a new 5 figure engine whereas an independent shop would offer you the option to rebuilt it for a fraction of the cost.
