    Honestly, with the price of vanilla, this would be more of a Lexus thing.


    I know a guy who deals in vanilla beans for a living. It's sorta weird.

    SAE testing indicated that vanilla seat cushions perform best at temps below 32°F while Bosch testing showed best performance at or below 0°C. The debate and testing continues.

    Suddenly, the soy-based seats in my Mustang seem a bit inferior. Throw some cinnamon and coffee beans in the formula and you could have a soy chai latte.


    Mmmmmm...I would snack on them seats.

    We'll be discussing this and other news tomorrow in an online editorial roundtable, available only to Jalopnik Gold subscribers.


    We sort of screwed up by introducing this on April 1, didn't we?

    @FЯeeMan has had his GOLD card revoked: Yes, and I'm sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet. Jalopnik Gold uses a different comment software, hence our ability to add the preview/edit features.


    You should be hearing back from me later today, but I've been told that Jalopnik Gold subscribers move to the front of the line for customer service inquiries.

    It is difficult to believe ANY automotive news on April 1. I agree that Toyota is vanilla, but I call fake.

    Good thing my Toyota doesn't have these... I burned a hole in the driver's seat a year ago; I'd have run out of seat foam last May.

    Is there seriously nothing going on today that most of the posts can be "Jalopnik Gold"? Not that they're not funny, its just I can't believe there's nothing else going on.

    My dear Ash78,


    Allow me to apologize for the entire Jalopnoverse for failing for nearly 30 minutes to call attention to your extraordinary wordsmithery. That was an excellent comment, and deserves much Acclaim (of the Plymouth variety), recognition, and a COTD nomination.


    ICE, Baby!
