What about a Miata? Miata and a Model 3 ain’t a bad garage at all.  Read more

The XJS is one of my favorite cars! Always wanted one. I think if it’s just a weekend car to wrench on, and you’re prepared for all that comes with it, you should go for it. If you’re not depending on it to get to work or whatever, why not? Read more

I want to do a Forza Horizon Jalopnik Pack again! Tell them to answer my emails. Read more

We tend to stay away from those just because it’s kind of like getting a free car for a year, or whatever, as opposed to a week or a weekend. A bit more gross than your usual press loaner.  Read more

I think we all try to remember how fortunate we are to do what we do! Even if it is still a job, and like all jobs, it comes with its own amount of bullshit, corporate mandates, budgets, fear and loathing, etc. It’s a fun gig but everyone here works hard at it. Read more

Probably Kristen’s C32 AMG. That thing can hold its own against modern cars. Read more

All the staff cars are older and slightly broken to one degree or another. We’re not much for show cars around these parts. Read more

Press launches: a couple times a month depending on the weather, and some OEMs like us more than others. We’re really cool with some and have nonexistent relationships with others. We usually assign drives based on interest and experience. A lot of pubs only send the senior folks to drive the good things, but we try Read more

Your choices are all over the place. Drive all of them, or most of them, and buy whatever you like best. No amount of our (often bad) opinions can match you finding the right car for yourself. Really, you can’t go wrong with any of those. Read more

E36 M3s seem to be all over the place in terms of prices and work that needs doing. Maybe adjust your timeline a bit, make it a longer-term project? Read more

I know the Corvette program is profitable, or at least was very recently, but it’s been hurt by Camaro overlap in some ways. It really does seem like the MR and FR Corvettes will run concurrently for a while, but I’m not convinced that’s sustainable long-term. Read more
