You say it’s a Porsche 356...where’s the other 300 of it?

Wave Race 64's water effects were practically a generation ahead of the competition. It took a long time for the rest of the industry to catch up...and in that time a second Wave Race upped the bar again.

That fucking V6 transmission. Holy shit. I’m floored there hasn’t been a class-action for owners who got sidelined from that 5AT chewing itself to death, myself included.

I would hope I don’t have to rebuild any transmission before the 200k mark...

First thing I noticed is that this Cherokee has an 8-slot grille. Wasn’t that a pre-production design with the traditional/iconic 7-slot taking its place on production models?

The Mirage doesn’t try to be anything it isn’t. Its only competition is the base-model Nissan Versa and Chevy Spark.

Lifetimes of ruin for a moment of hubris.

Definitely a prime LeMons/Chump candidate. Brake work won’t count towards the car’s “value,” and you could make an argument to exempt the exhaust to meet track volume limits. Hell, it [probably] doesn’t even need a clutch!

WHY MUST YOU CREATE THESE FEELINGS OF CONFLICT WITHIN ME

I don’t acknowledge the existence of any Prius

Welp, now I know what the bastard love child of a Toyota inbred with a Lexus and the offspring of a 3000GT / NSX couple would look like. Short of the front end of the Scion iA, this is the ugliest thing to come out of a Toyota facility.

3rd Gear: Lease deals or not, I’m wondering just how many people are getting turned off by the hideous protruding unibrow grille they stuffed between the front headlights. I have never seen a car that looked so good in photos be so ugly in person.

Neutral: Buying a car without needing to waste hours of my life going through anything resembling a dealership experience? Sign me up.

Toyota is such a tease. I would love to see just one major automaker add the bare minimum elements to make their race cars road legal and sell some to the public, rather than leave that all for the boutique and specialty brands.

You are a goddamned hero.

Now playing

I must’ve picked up GT5 later in its life with an updated the intro video, because I distinctly remember this cut that ended with Planetary Go! by My Chemical Romance.

I would send a message back letting them know it’s cool; we won’t have any run-ins with the law. I’ll send Tightlips John and “Knuckles” Mikey to close the deal, and Vinny the Greaser will handle any interference coming our way.

Damn. I would’ve loved to help out since I’ve been a regular Jalopnik/Kotaku/Gizmodo reader & commenter for over a decade, but those time slots just don’t work with a 9 to 5. Sorry guys.
