I think of the M235i as basically the 235is, but with a more marketable name. There will be a full-blown M2 eventually. Read more

I wouldn't buy a Miata coupe, but Mazda brought this to the New York Auto Show and it was oh so sexy. Read more

Plus it's going to be very lightweight–220 lb. less than the NC Miata would peg it at 2,260 lb!!! Read more

Well it's loosing 220 lbs, and most definitely will be RWD. Jalopnik would probably explode otherwise. Read more

I'll agree there was a big difference between a Corvette and a GTO, but I think it's just as big a difference between a Stingray and an XKE, or a 911, or an Elan. Read more

And a Camaro competed in the 1982 Le Mans against 924s, but that doesn't make the Camaro a sports car. Read more

I wouldn't exactly consider a '60s Corvette light, considering a '65 Vette weighs around 3,200 lbs. (depending on who you ask), when a '65 911 weighs a little under 2,400 lbs, and a Jag E-Type weighs about 2,500 lbs Read more

So you're saying that a 60s Corvette is more similar to a 911 or an E-Type than it is a Camaro? Sure, the Corvette is more of a sports car than most muscle cars, but that doesn't make it not a muscle car. Read more

L88 Corvette. Rated at 430 HP from the factory but supposedly made close to 560 HP, but who knows. Basically, a factory built race car not intended for the road.

Yeah I like that they cover both ends, from Raph's Baja to something like a 250 GTO and they treat each with the same amount of care. They've definitely been going "upmarket" as you said, which is cool. Read more

Thanks for coming into the comments! This is a crazy video! Read more

I'd have this over the Jag. Don't get me wrong, I love the F-Type, especially in coupe form, but I'm not convinced it's going to be timeless like we already know the Vantage is. Read more

I'm actually really excited to test this sexy beast out when it drops later this year. I saw it at NYIAS and it looks great in person. Should be a nice van!

Oh my god. Plus the air suspension would keep it safe from bumps! This. Everything about this. Read more

Definitely one of the sexier solutions here! The only thing that would worry me with that is the wide opening tailgate–that could be tough in the city. Read more
