Blip: A Car Club Is Born
Blip: A Car Club Is Born-July 2024

Image for article titled Blip: A Car Club Is Born

Back when I moved from Los Angeles to Chapel Hill, NC some years back, I was really lamenting leaving what is, I think, . And while I still believe that, I’m happy to say my new home is doing pretty well, and here’s proof: this lineup of a little informal interesting/weird/cool-car get-together me and four other car-give-a-shitter-abouters set up.

It’s a pretty good mix: a lovely ‘66 Beetle, a mint ‘70s Mini, my Pao, my friend’s new Nissan Figaro, and a glorious, if a bit ratty, Citroën SM.

It was almost a sub-100 hp club, but the SM changed that, which was fine by us.

There’s fantastic cars all 0ver, once you start looking.

The Big Strong Fast and Furious Men Have Very Fragile Egos: Report
You would think, given the advanced state of musculature, experience, and career level of action stars like The Rock, Jason Statham, and Vin Diesel, that all three would feel very secure and self-actualized. You would, reportedly, be wrong! The hilariously says that all three top stars in the Fast...

Ferrari Wants Instagrammer To Remove Pics Of His Car Because It's Delusional About Who Buys Ferraris
Oh, Ferrari. You make such lovely, fast cars. But, damn, are you in some serious denial right now. The Italian automaker is currently involved in a stupid tiff with a whose aesthetic sensibilities seem to be based on the result of mixing Red Bull and puréed Euro notes with...

Carspotting: Astoria Lexus For years, the first-generation was a wannabe BMW with a weird clock dashboard. But slowly, surely, the car has revealed its true self. These cars are absolute classics and icons in equal measure. (Welcome back to ! We’re back with The Worst Walking Tour of New York...
