I think it’s the closing of a noticeable performance gap.

I find it amazing how janky a lot of the interior and bodywork look. Yeah you can say “Well they are not mass-produced, these are special cars built by craftsman and artisans.” and to some extent you’re right but in another, more accurate, sense it’s just a lot of hastily thrown together stuff with little forethought.…

The often-stated problem with modern cars is their lack of personality, but when you look back most of a car’s personality ends up being the faults, eccentric design decisions and things that never worked logically, or as they should, or at all.

I agree with this post, but It’s sad that we have to be divided like this. Being a supporter of people trained to run into a burning building to save you or cut you out of a mangled car wreck shouldn’t label you “left” or “right”, it should label you an American and a decent human being.

Pffft, typical Eric.

Nice price. Easy nice price. This is one of those cars that in my opinion, a Target™ top does not increase its desirability. Same for MR2s. If you find a gen 2 turbo with a lid, buy that baby up NOW!

Buying stuff via Kinja deals doesn’t entitle you to shit, and being a whiny bitch isn’t going to get you permanently out of the greys.

Slightly on-topic: the most hilarious thing I’ve ever seen while driving was when I was stopped at a red light. The woman in the car next to me casually tossed a lit cigarette butt out the window of her car while talking on the cell phone. A chill, Jimmy Buffet- looking dude who was crossing the street in front of us…

Well, there will be a ship named after him, but it will probably be in the Russian navy.

It’s gonna grab all the South Gina.

Well. Looks like I am the dick head. Apologies and thanks for your service.

No need, the Navy’s stellar year in the news is plenty enough.

Disclaimer: 12 years Active Duty Navy service. So that’s (former) Petty Officer Dickhead to you.

What, you couldn’t shoehorn in a Trump joke too, you dickhead?

These days, at least this year, a US Navy Ship returning to home port under her own power and not having rammed another ship or ran aground is enough to fly a “Mission Successful” banner....

And behind those little doors filled with tasty delights and hearty fare were about 13 employees keeping them freshly stocked.

UGH. As a city parent, I cannot overstate the importance of corner stores to healthy communities. Corner stores (we don’t really call them bodegas and the owners are usually Palestinian) serve as the grandmas for the neighborhood. The corner stores keep an eye out, and they sweep the sidewalk, and they lend you a…

“Most corner stores are dirty, over-priced, lack variety, and frankly are terrifying to go into”

I teach the youths at the university. One of the great moments of any semester is when one of the youths, bolstered by the confidence and ignorance of the aforementioned youth and complete lack of background research, decides to tell me about their invention that will change the world. Much, much more often than…

Agreed - but I am also not going to complain about updating convenience.

I just love to see Gawker-bros falling all over each other to demonize what they see as Gentrification, while these same folks will protest predatory pricing by these very same bodegas.
