Motorcycle Safety Course story - Woman in my class was a know-it-all. Her husband rode Harleys and she had only ridden on the back, but kept talking over the instructor and other folks in the class about all her experience. Apparently her husband bought her some sort of Harley 1200 as her first bike so she talked a… Read more

I got cut off during a lesson and my driving instructor flipped him off and told him off at a stoplight. When the light turned green, we drove off as my instructor said “You know what sir? Fuck you!”
Done. Everybody else is just wrong.

Having Raph as an editor taught me early on to save a copy of my work outside the CMS before sending it to my editors.

very glad the gecs made a song for those of us who frequently fall out of the Porsche
Hyperpop like 100 gecs is purposely designed to be looked down upon by older generations. It’s unequivocally unhinged and overdone. If you don’t like it, that means it’s working. Just putting this here before the storm
gecs are big in the (rapidly growing) young lgbt car culture!
There are bound to be plenty of boomer takes on this, but it is important to note that 100 gecs is a maximalist and almost experimental take on hyper-pop. Read more
I’m not responding to the comments I’m referring to but wtf. how are the first two comments on a story about a mass shooting:
1. a shitty joke about gender identity by some mouth breathing troglodyte
2. a sarcastic comment about public transport, as if this could be blamed on subways instead of a gun proliferation no… Read more
Having been in the market for a reasonably priced Miata in the Northeast for the past few months (year?), I saw that car in the past week or so. Great find! I want something that leans a bit more street, so passed on it, but getting a track ready car always makes far more financial sense then trying to build one. Read more
Is SAAB 900 SPG a dream car? For me it’s close. I’d part with $10k to $12K of my hard earned bank to own this 900. $57k is Rainman $400 Snicker pricing IMHO. I know I’m a frugal bastard, but What the Heck!
thx andy
Now that GMC price is just ridiculous. I mean if you are pure GMC fan and hate the new looks of the current GMC truck (pretty much everyone that is not blind) and can see maybe dropping 30-35k for that? It is the last of the non-DEF diesels.

I “get” a lot of these because the collector market is just flush with cash at the moment, but that truck doesn’t make a damned bit of sense. It is just an old truck. Not a classic truck, just old. I see them in condition like that every day. Why in the world would someone pay that kind of money for that truck?
The level of insanity here, especially the Nissan and Corvette is mind boggling. PT Barnum is laughing somewhere.
Formatting issues aside: that’s, as they say, the joke.
Whoosh!
I will defend “Drive” to the death. It’s not a “car movie” nor did I think it was before I saw it for the first time. I’m aware that one of the trailers was/is misleading and some moviegoers were pissed that it wasn’t an F&F movie. Boo hoo. Trailers have done it before and will do again. Same people that complain… Read more
Definitely agree about Bullitt. 11 minute car chase that is cool but about six minutes too long, and the rest of that movie is a total snoozefest. Steve McQueen’s hotness can only carry it just so far.
