Am I the only one who immediately thought Porsche Cayman at the lead pic? Better than the overstyled crud they made over the years, but doesn’t say Honda to me.

Let me flip the question around, what car does look good with pop-ups? None. F-40, E31 8 Series, RX-7 all get ruined when those lights pop up. Maybe some argue that a Miata with lights up is “cute” but that’s hardly praise. Actually think Z31's a more decent looking example with the lights up. (But what do I know as a…
In the Bay Area these guys love running across the freeway in some parts. And like Lemmings they insist on crossing together even if it kills them. On a 2-lane highway one time I instinctively slammed the brakes as one crossed maybe 5 car lengths ahead. Sure enough a second deer crossed right in front of me and barely…
Still hoping one day you’ll snag a “holy grail” V10 Touareg TDI. Misery loves company!
(Always stuck in gray purgatory but here goes)
This looks like a 10.5 gen Civic rather than a full redesign, mainly cleaning up the exterior and overhauling the interior.
Got ripped off for that clunker, you’re looking at two weeks of touring Europe at best chasing all those issues. Fix everything and it’s still a beater van...
This isn’t a car hoarding issue as much as it is a tidyness issue with neighbors. Best example of that is the axle and gas tank sitting under the tree... for years.
If Justin has done any journalism (instead of joining the Twitter mob narrative) he’d know that even Bubba backtracked about it being a noose, and it’s not even big enough to be a human noose. But keep sticking to that lefty narrative.
With the same V6 as in the grocery-pushing Accord, it doesn’t matter how handbuilt it is. If it were port-polished by hand, or the engine hand assembled (torqued to specs) I’d understand, but looks DOA.
So “to watch someone get into a fatal accident for your enjoyment” is okay so long as a certain time has elapsed? How does that even make sense?
What’s with all the pseudo moralizing about accident videos all of a sudden?
From the A-pillar back from the side profile it reminds me of a Chevy Cruze with that fake black window. Hideous.
You’re missing the point of the 2JZ engine then. The point of the 2JZ is the ease of making lots of power, due to the over-engineered durability of the bottom end.
Brave soul. Saw a beautiful Avus Blue 850i in my BMW shop when I had taken my M5 in for servicing. Tech said he was going to advise the owner to sell the car. When a tech servicing M cars and Porsches all the time says that, that’s pretty scary.
God there’s so much wrong with this post.
No way in hell is a Jaguar F-Type SVR going to be 74 decibels, unless it’s only idling and warmed up. Floor a lot of bone-stock cars and they’ll exceed 95db. For reference, look at list of stock cars that get meatballed (flagged) for exceeding 90db in Laguna Seca, which…
If we’re talking German luxury, pragmatically speaking I think they should all be avoided, three-point, roundel or otherwise, haha. Funny you mention ABS airbag tools—the E34 technically requires an obscure tool that few shops have, but you can use a jumper wire with the 20-pin OBD to manually reset the airbag light. O…
E38s are nice, but they’re an even bigger headache on the maintenance side of things. Technically the M73 is supposed to be engineered to be reliable, but you have twice the ECUs, twice the stuff that can break, plus all the options.
I guess it’s easy to fall into the “older is always better” trap, and if you then say…
Funny how usually those insisting the E39 is the best are those that have never owned one, or know its heartaches. I liken it to saying a person would marry a stripper. Sounds cool at first, but when it comes down to it you know it’s trouble. Anything above a 535i for the E39 is a pain, and the E39 drives as a much…
Yep, and as a BMW owner, I can explain that they crack *not* because they’re plastic, but because it’s crimped onto a metal radiator. Since metal and plastic expand at different rates, it’s not exactly the ideal solution. Plus, while people make all-aluminum radiators, coolant reservoir tanks are always plastic.…
