Luxury Oil Burning: I thought it was just hype, but I have seen the light.
From the the desk of the skinwalker, who is currently sealed at 6.5 psi under the rocky mountains. Well it’s been a while since I’ve graced this site with a review but I got a good one for us today. The tale of a new car. As is common for the college student with a…

2022 Lamborghini Urus – Bloated Bullshit
How are these things selling? No seriously, how did these stupid things sell? Was it really that easy? Just take an Audi Q7 with an RSQ8 motor, do some “Pimp My Ride” magic, and then slap a $200,000+ price tag on the damn thing? Their scheme must’ve worked given the amount of them roaming the…

2014 Jaguar XJ – Bangers, Mash, and Wasted Cash
Yes it wound up on a tow truck. No it wasn’t its fault. Nor ours. Fuck you. This car wasn’t really all that good but somehow it won us over. It’s plagued with pretty shitty build quality, obtuse 2010’s screen based infotainment, a soggy towel of a chassis, and a powertrain that lacked enough *oomph*…

Transit Race: 2024 Honda Civic Type R vs Charlotte N.C. Public Transport (ft. Amtrak)
“Let’s have do a Top Gear style public transit race!” “Oh oh and let’s rent a car for it!” “Yea yeah! And let’s make sure the contestants are clueless about the route!” “Of course! And us in team car should use printed out instructions instead of a map!” And it didn’t go too badly, for…

2019 Honda Civic Type R, wide load comin’ through
Transit races are great, but the Type R deserves a fair shake to show what it really can do. So this time we autocrossed it and drove the resident GTI owner (more) insane.

2025 BMW M135 xDrive – I Wanted To Believe
YES I KNOW IT LOOKS LIKE A KIA FROM THE FRONT! WE WILL GET TO THAT! Well this was an unfortunate disappointment. Do y’all remember this things predecessor? No, not the 1M for the majority American audience we have. Nor the pre-facelift m135i for the rest of y’all, but you probably already know where I’m…

2018 Porsche Cayman (Again) – SELF INDULGENCE
This will be quick I promise. Now, I know that we reviewed this car last year. Hell, it won 2024’s most chuckable car of the year. However, I’ve driven the same exact car again on the same track, but in damp conditions. So, brief intro to what’s going on. It’s a gutted and caged base…

2025 Toyota bZ4X (Facelift) Executive Bi-Tone Norwegian Launch Near Sandesund
I uh… didn’t know this was going on until I was walking down a hallway in my hotel and saw shit all set up. So I looked in until some Toyota representative ushered my ass in. So, ladies, gentlemen, and the one Norwegian Viewer we have, it’s time for me to do my journalistic duty.…

The Ballad of the Beige Corolla: 7 Years of Owning the Car That Defined the Recession.
From the desk of the skinwalker, I present this article. Before we get into my personal ownership, we must go into the background of the car so anonymous that it’s almost iconic: the 2009 Toyota Corolla. The very first generation of Corolla to escape having a 4-speed automatic transmission. However, it only escaped this in…
