A giant clusterfuck of ego-massaging auto-geeks who love nothing more than to outdo each others levels of redundant knowledge about so called 'classic' cars that are invariably âbetter than anything produced in the last 10 yearsâ. Comments below any post will always include:
- No one can go more than 2 comments without adding 'FTW!'
- Jalopnik does a Comment of the Day, causing regular 'COTDâ / 'COTD FTW!'
back-slapping
-Reference at least once to: 'shooting brake', followed by a lot of inside-joke visual puns and regulars saying how ugly
the Merc CLS concept / Crosstour is /how theyâd "sell my
e-type for proper stick-shift Euro-wagons in the US, FTW!"
- BMW spy shots are regular site posts, commenterâs then instantly and unequivocally state how mundane new BMW's are (even tho they all drive a plain 3 in real life, not an early
Celica import as they frequently claim) followed by a brief
wank over first gen M-coupe, etc.
- 'LeMons' banger races are an open air group fuck for these people as they drool over engine
swaps between obscure cars that no one cares about.
- At least once per week someone will comment "Darth, your ride is here" whilst abusing some wealthy athlete who has just 'murdered-out' their exotic.
- Users constantly express respect for
Hoonage whilst they themselves never break a speed limit.
- Manual trans FTW.Euro-spec FTW.JDM FTW.Top Gear FTW.
Superleggera_matt_grey_Eyjafjjoell__Euro_Volcano_Edition: New 2011 Ford Fiesta FTW in the US! If only it had a 2.0 blown Diesel and the same seat fabric as the Euro version, because they changed that you know.
Life_gives-me_LeMons_so_Isqueezemy-ElCamino: Rubs eyes. No way, for that money I would buy a new crate big-block for my '82
Toyota Starlet.
Hoonage.
Team_Jezza_Jalopnik: US fiesta has
2hp less than the Euro version, what gives? Engine swap with my M-coupe FTW!
