Mack Hogan is Jalopnik's Weekend Editor, but you may know him from his role as CNBC's car critic or his brave (and maligned) takes on Twitter. Most people agree that you shouldn't listen to him.

It is amazing how well this breakthrough platform has aged.  Man do they hold up--- even better than the same-era Mercedes-Benz sedans they challenged. Read more

You sold a Miata and bought a Lexus? Read more

Can confirm. A long-time Honda friend of mine was bewitched by these barges. Finally took the plunge and got a 97 LS400 and enjoys it. Enough that he found a super clean green with white leather LS430 with less than 40k miles and pounced on it. It’s truly a luxurious vehicle in any sense. Read more

Last week was Germany, not Austria. Read more

Poor old Crofty sounded like he was calling a funeral after Lewis passed Max. Pretty satisfying to listen to Brundle proclaim this the changing of the guard and see the shitty Sky audience proclaim Max driver of the day while Lewis out-drives everyone yet again. Read more

This is a very smart move because the Supercharger network is one of the only competitive advantages Teslas have against the European EVs from Porsche, Audi, and Jaguar.  Tesla needs to promote this as much as possible because it makes an EV much easier to live with. Read more

As much as I like Tesla’s vehicles, I like their charging network more and they have a huge leg up on their competitors for the time being with it.  Read more

Local dealer has a new 2015 Fiat 500 on the lot (500km of test drive?) Read more

True the factory incentives might not be there, but the dealer might be inclined to take a hit. The sooner they get the 18 off the lot the sooner they can replace it with something newer and easier to sell.  Read more

Probably because we only have a strong economy on paper, on the ground it is shit. The economic figures have been massaged to make politicians look better for the polls, but on the ground it is insecure, low paid, and short term jobs which people need to work two or three at a time just to keep their heads above water.

Dealers are like, “OMG!!! We have 2018s in stock!” Meanwhile, Nissan and Dodge are still peddling 2008 models. Read more

I remember that. That’s why, when other students in 2nd period started whispering about a plane hitting the World Trade Center, I wondered what the big deal was, since I assumed it would naturally be another little single engine job like the one that hit the White House. First instincts are often very wrong. Read more

1991 NSX. It was a slug until I revved the engine to the fastest spin cycle. Nearly every gas station visit, every intersection, included an encounter with an annoying kid who wanted to race. I lost interest in it completely when a beater Integra at my lunch at a stoplight. Read more

My business partner just bought a 2019 BMW M5. On paper, this car is just a numbers machine. Every number is eye-popping.

My most recent reminder that “’60s fast” is different than “today fast” was a ’64 GTO. Cool as hell, but underwhelming. I would have enjoyed it more if it wasn’t supposed to be fast. Read more

Ferrari Sexarossa. Legend as a poster on our walls, toys and video games...
