Why does everyone hate the 3rd gen? From a performance perspective it’s not as fast as the turbo but will EASILY take it in the handling department. It was lighter and faster than the Miata, and was still a cheap, reliable, fun, fuel efficient mid engined roadster. Sounds pretty perfect to me. 

Wrong. 1st gen is infintely cool. Perhaps THE most 80s car. I love it. 

Nah, I have serious long term reliability concerns with a Hybrid system. My buddy has a ‘98 Tacoma SR5 V6 4x4 that we took off road yesterday. It hasn’t broken down once and starts every single time. Plus, it’s so light compared to modern trucks that it just skips over everything that slowed down other trucks. Was…

The problem i see is that drivers tests in the United States are faaaaar too easy to pass. If you have no spatial reasoning, if you do not know how to change a tire, if you cannot operate the parking brake (I know several people who cannot) YOU SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO DRIVE A CAR. People need to learn driving is a…

Move to Houston or Dallas and try walking or biking from downtown to the average home. I promise youll switch back (coming from someone who tried this very thing)

Buddy you might have the wrong job. Majority of people here (including me) live in cities and enjoy driving. Plus not every city is NYC. I’m from Houston, where you NEED a car to get around, even downtown. Banning it would only make downtown deserted. The streets are wide, theres tons of parking, and theres already…

I really wish there was though. Can you imagine the 5.7 iForce in something the size of the Tacoma? Thatd be fun as hell, although it would eat into Tundra sales. 

I disagree. At the end of the day neither car works but saying “My ferrari broke down” is a lot better than saying “My shitass VW broke down”

Genuienly fascinated to see if the Musk fanboys will be able to defend this one. FSD is a scam just like half of what Tesla does, and Tesla won’t ever get better if people just ignore its huge issues in the future. 

I owned one. Paid almost more in repairs over the years I owned it than I did for the car. Worst car I have ever owned. NEVER worked. 

As someone who owned a CC that looked almost identical to this (different bumper) DO NOT buy a CC. It was the least reliable car I have come across. While the powertrain only ever had one hiccup, there were hundreds of electrical gremlins, everything from multiple TCS/ABS failures, to cruise control failing, to AIR in…

Because truly great sedans and coupes are being replaced by SUVs because morons en mass prefer a seating position that feels higher. Heres a (small) list of great cars we cannot buy anymore because uninformed consumers keep buying SUVs (in no particular order)

Yeah, no. The best way to prove the far right correct in their arguements is to overreact and take away peoples liberties and use the military against them. This will only inspire more violence from these morons. 

EV fanboys will go on and on about how their cars are superior acceleration and NVH wise but over NINE THOUSAND POUNDS? A Ram TRX with comparable acceleration numbers is about 6,400 pounds! A Hummer H2 is 6,600 pounds! Thats completely ridicoulous, how can you take this thing, or any EV for that matter, off road when…

I don’t see myself switching to EV anytime soon, if ever. Manual transmissions and turbo lag is too much fun, not to mention popping and burbling exhaust noises. 

There have been plenty of articles about the Bolt if you chose to read them. Teslas arent gifts from God, sorry. 

Oh boy another Tesla stan. Jalopnik is just pointing out the idiotic way that Tesla is endangering it’s customers and others. Theres a reason other companies haven’t rolled out something like this, and it’s not because they dont have the tech, Volvo and Mercedes have been pioneering similar technology for a long time,…

Had a Volkswagen CC with a dual clutch. Made driving, even through a slap stick crazy fun. 

The Mazda 2 hopes you have a great day.

People LOOOOOVE Musk for reasons I still can’t quite figure out. You don’t actually need a handsome design or a good product now, just a flashy presentation from a popular company (Apple, Tesla, etc)
