I’ve sent a Telex off to the folks in Weissach to secure my allocation for a Porsche-propelled airplane engine to slot into the nose cone of my experimental craft. Sure, I could have gone with a Rolls-Royce, but I need some proper aircooled flat-six exhaust notes when I’m soaring high above all of you plebs.
The Aston Martin Twenty Twenty concept was Aston, Italdesign, and 2001's idea of what a car in 2020 would look like. Aston’s design language is still strikingly similar 19 years later, but the wheels look a lot better now.
We may be celebrating the present tonight by ringing in 2020 at midnight, but this person towing a pair of Cake Kalk OR electric bikes behind a Polestar 2 electric sedan is straight up living in 2040. Happy New Year, everyone.
I certainly wasn’t born yet in 1968, so there’s no way I was waiting up for Santa that year. Good thing I wasn’t, because he would have probably been late because he went to one of the “cold rooms” in Dearborn to check on the Ford Bronco.
Back when Ferrari unveiled the 360 Spider in early 2001 I thought it was the most delightful design on four wheels and I wanted one desperately. Now I think the headlights are a bit gaudy, the shape is too boring, and it has too many inlets, but I still want one desperately. Plus now it’s considered a collectible.…
Look at those gauges. Look at that steering wheel. Look at that fuel tank strapped to the back, protected only by that knock-off spoke wheel. I know we’re safer with airbags and crumple zones, but can we at least bring the gauges back?
The GRT Grasser Lamborghini team has won the GTD class at the Daytona 24 for the last two years, and added to that with a Sebring 12 hour win in 2019. For the 2020 season this winning team has signed an all-women lineup with Christina Nielsen and Katherine Legge pairing for the full season, joined by Bia Figueiredo…
Stay weird, Jalops. No matter what happens, dammit, you’ve got to stay weird.
It’s probably good I’m not rich. I’d just spend my money on excessively stupid shit, like an Aston Martin V8 Vantage from the 1980s. And I have no business owning that! Nobody does.
This is a Mazda RX-7. It is not the car our David Tracy bought this weekend in Colorado for $700, despite my best efforts. He bought something else instead. I’m trying here, people.
If the Cybertruck catches on, does that mean angles could make a comeback? I hope so.
I would just like to remind everyone that DTM and Super GT put aside the past, reconciled their differences, and came together to form a more harmonious future for the world of motorsport. If they can do it, so can you. From now on, right before I go to sleep, I will take time reflect on what I did today to be more…
If you need a palate cleanser after today’s Nice Price or Crack Pipe and the interesting but visually questionable Mustang Mach-E, how about the new California Special? Seems appropriate for the LA Auto Show.
Every day is a trip to the beach when you drive a Saab Sonett. Just ask these two.
It is my duty to remind you that Chevrolet once sold a four-door AE82 Corolla with a 4A-GE under the Nova Twin Cam moniker. Let it dance in the landscape of your dreams as you drift to sleep tonight. If everyone forgets about this car, it will cease to exist. Don’t you dare forget.
It’s a rare treat to see young rally star Oliver Solberg gas hopping and hittin’ switches in his Subaru WRX STI Lowrider. He may not be a true OG, but what he lacks in style he makes up for in effort.
There is no vent, snorkel, winglet, or carbon fiber addendum that Pagani will reject these days, and the original design, seen here on Zonda 001, might just be as wonderful as the company’s look has ever been. (If you didn’t hear already, there are a bunch of Pagani Zondas parked in New York’s Grand Central Terminal…
