For the last twenty-five years of my life, I have worked diligently to create situations where I could say, "That's... too... fuckin'... HIGH!" Thanks, Used Cars! Read more

At least this thing has more intellectual honesty than a CR-V. Both are jacked-up little Civic wagons, but this one at least looks the part. Read more
oh, hell yes. Read more
Not enough of the comments are properly referencing "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos". Of course, I suspect most of you are young enough to regard Chuck and Flav as oldies-station material right along with Sam Cooke and "the elder Bach". Read more
@thesubstitute: I can see you winning the race if you had a Standard 125R on back. But given the weight of the STA, I'm compelled to call you a liar. In real life, as opposed to your fevered imagination, putting an STA on the bike rack of a Grand Am immediately caused it to wheelstand. This was the main reason Moeller… Read more
What an utter crock of shit this is. All REAL fans of the show know that KITT's "soul" was transferred into a red fourth-gen Trans Am at the end of the TV-movie. Therefore, for purposes of continuity, showing this old KITT is... well, it's as bad as having Anakin say "Whee!" when Qui-Gon lifts him up. Read more
Murilee's being modest, of course; he did very well and threw down some very decent times. In the S5, he was as good as a lot of the journos in the RS4 and R8. Read more
There's a old story, repeated most recently in a Nineties Car and Driver, about a show Evel was doing out in the desert, where he would be jumping multiple schoolbuses or whatnot.. the promoter was hamming it up, there was a hired priest on the microphone begging Evel not to throw his life away... and all of a sudden,… Read more
Well, the CCX was designed by an authentic Baron, and said Baron is not afraid to wear a cravat, so initially I want to vote for it. However, the Zonda has inspired by, and in the early days experienced the personal involvement of, Fangio. The only reason it's called a "Zonda" and not a "Fangio" was that Horacio… Read more
...and the handyman says, "I HAD HALF A CAN OF PAINT LEFT SO NOT ONLY DID I PAINT YOUR PORCH OUT BACK, I PAINTED THE FRONT PART OF YOUR FERRARI TOO, AND I AIN'T GONNA CHARGE YOU!" Ah, the money shot of a famous Seventies joke. Read more
Nobody can create vaginal abrasions quite like Kobe. At least according to the lawsuit. Read more
My rumor mill says V10 diesel, and it's a well-connected mill. Read more
Best article I've ever written, I mean, read ;) Read more
@harumph: The WRC's own site is forthright about the fact that WRC is not racing. With any luck, this link works, but if it doesn't you can read about in on the "What is WRC?" section of the site. You have a right to dislike NASCAR but the fact remains that NASCAR is legitimate, deadly racing and WRC is simply… Read more
I don't find it hard to accept drifting as a sport. One of the commenters above mentioned flatland BMX, and I think that's an apt analogy. Of course, flatland BMX is significantly more dangerous, particularly since that Kevin Jones punk started doing all the tricks while he was rolling. Read more
In a perfect world, Nigo would decide to transport his BAPEd out Phantom to New York for a Gumball/whatever rally. And the guys loading it would forget to strap it all the way down. And it would slip around until it finally came loose from its moorings, busted out the side of the 747 in which it was traveling,… Read more
Don't worry, guys, in the second part Murilee definitely experiences the 100% limit of the car in traditional EVO/CAR fashion, with the fastest guy in the press crew ;) Read more
