It could be because people are more tired. Or it could be because everyone is trying to remember how to set the time on the car clock.
I think I see a Waterloo in your future...killing the Odyssey and CRV will destroy profits, getting cars down to sub-3000lbs will either be prohibitively expensive, or give terrible safety ratings, leading to no profits. Bye bye Honda.
@Half the wheels, twice the fun: I like that. I think they need 2 rules:
1. This is how much fuel you get per mile of race
2. Your driver must be protected in a crash up to x mph
Other than that, anything goes.

@Vavon: To be fair, he said there's no need for wings on FWD, not spoilers. He then went on to talk about spoilers adding stability.
It sounds like they still haven't resolved the big stumbling block: agreeing the business model with the rights-holders. Unfortunately, this is still vaporware. Luckily I have my torrent process working very smoothly.
@luisthebeast: Yes, and they are awesome.
Some more British to American translations. They should be obvious, but just in case:
till = checkout
NatWest = large bank
tosh = BS
telly = TV

@LuckyChuck: The late 90s V6 in the Mustang was terrible. It made lots of noise, but no power at all.
The Honda 1987 should be changed to Honda/Acura 1990. Acura had the Integra, Legend, and of course, the NSX.
@OOglebooze: That low front end wouldn't pass pedestrian safety laws, so probably not.
@FodderTheSane: I was watching the WRC Finland this weekend. Juha Kankunan (I'm sure I've butchered that beyond belief) came out of retirement for the race and they were showing highlights of his career, including Peugeot 205s and of course, the Lancia Delta. Wonderful.
The best AC in a car I've driven was in a 1st gen Acura TL. Like the Arctic in your dash. The worst was my G8, like being breathed on by someone sucking an ice cube.
Apparently Cameron Diaz destroyed the clutch: [www.dailymail.co.uk]
@Ben Wojdyla: Does it really count if there isn't an engine under there? That's a trunk lid, not a hood.
Was there a Stig reference in Sunday's Dilbert cartoon?

It's a toss up between a 2000 Hyundai Accent and a 2008 Jeep Commander. Although now I think about it, I remember a large number of late 90s/early 2000s rental cars from the big 3 that were pretty horrific, including Chevy Luminas and Ford Tauri
@piraticaldog: They use the comma to represent a decimal point in some European countries, so it's probably 20.832 km...
@reefer: Someone this desperate would have each PC come through a separate proxy.
The Veyron is a fantastically well engineered product and is one of the greatest cars ever made. I could say exactly the same about the McLaren F1, the difference being the objectives they had in designing the two cars.
Most people would probably say that the Veyron is the better car, most Jalopnik readers would probably say that the McLaren is the better car.
They are both awesome in their own way and inflammatory statements like Ron's will probably help both manufacturers sell more cars.
For those who are missing the connection that the ad is trying to make:
