PSA: Using an armchair as a replacement seat is a bad idea (Autoblog)

Apr 17th 2011 7:11PM Yes, it's stupid to have an armchair for a seat.

And, this goes to show that poor people can't get ahead in life. I bet this was one huge compromise for the owner of the vehicle. He probably didn't think it was a good idea either; he'd like to have a new car too, but he's broke so he has an old beater that needed a new seat, and this was what he could do given his resources. He's so broke that he couldn't afford to renew his license or pay old, past-due tickets. Now he's definitely behind in life because they took his only mode of transportation, and he'll have huge impound fees that will go to collections. He'll never pay the impound fee--the car's not worth it. He's going to have to eventually scrape together enough cash to buy a different beater.

All of this could have been avoided if he only made an additional $200 to $500 a month. We all live on thin margins.

Detailer tries to clean up coffee stain... with spray paint?! (Autoblog)

Apr 16th 2011 8:05PM If it had protein from cream or milk and the stain set in, they'll never get rid of it.

Jaguar Italy trims out a special XKR in... plaid Alcantara?! (Autoblog)

Apr 16th 2011 8:03PM I use to have a grey-market BMW 635csi that had plaid cloth interior. It was pretty cool, but I have to agree that this makes the Jag look like a Geo Metro.

2012 BMW M5 Concept leaked ahead of Shanghai debut (Autoblog)

Apr 3rd 2011 7:15PM E46 looks a little ponderous to me. I like the current generation M3 and the one before the E46.

Rob, you just ruined the car for me. Thanks.

AdSpotting: Porsches For Everyday People (Autoblog)

Mar 28th 2011 11:11PM Whenever you see someone smiling in a Porsche, they aren't acting. Sounds like a cool opportunity for your wife to be in a commercial! Did she get to drive the Turbo?

AdSpotting: Porsches For Everyday People (Autoblog)

Mar 28th 2011 11:09PM AWD Porches love driving in the snow. Porsche even has vacation retreats for owners in some snowy European country where they teach you how to drive better in the snow.

I've read reviews of Carerra 4s where they stated that it's the best SUV that they've ever driven.

Video: Hennessey pits Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon against last year's Nissan GT-R (Autoblog)

Mar 16th 2011 7:19PM The CTS-V sedan did really well on the Nurburgring. I imagine the wagon does pretty well too.

Mar 16th 2011 7:16PM I happen to like the way the wagon looks better than the sedan. Especially in person.
