Though you never saw her on camera, Nicole’s fingerprints were all over almost every video we made. Heard Doug’s mom call from his basement? That was Nicole’s dulcet tones. Saw a pair of legs flying in the air when we lost the key to the Ariel Atom? That was Nicole, making sure we didn’t have to trudge back on our own…

If you’ve watched a Jalopnik video this year and enjoyed what you saw, thank Nicole. She and the rest of our (relatively tiny!) video team busted ass all year to take Jalopnik video from scratch to something amazing.

This is funny for many different reasons!

I'd rather buy a BMW hooned by Clarkson than a Camaro driven by a Jalopnik employee

Noe-body messes with Dejesus!

Mine the ones I wrote me

This makes so much more sense. Simplify.

Complete GO USA/V8/LS1 Fanatic/Former owner here, and...yeah, they were terrible cars. Just awful. Absolutely abysmal build and material quality. Not even fisher price would have used the plastics they made that bathtub interior out of. The 3800 was okay, but that 3.4 they used before it was the antithesis of speed…

Yo dawg, I heard you liked Cougars.

Looks gold and white to me

“Adsurb” - new word of the year. An absurd form of “absurd”. Well played sire!

It’s adsurb, and it’s also absurd!

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for.

I daily drove a late 90s Volkswagen for 14 consecutive years without ever being left stranded once. Wolfsburg had a whole team of technicians trying to figure out how that was possible.

Congratulations, Mr. LE5Fiero, on today’s COTD! Here’s a Golf as your prize which this lovely lady will deliver to you as soon as she checks its brakes.

As much as I loathe those wheels, you might be right.. SMH

Those rims, kill them now.
