Blip: Young SS
Blip: Young SS-April 2024

Image for article titled Blip: Young SS

I’m back! Yesterday I took the kid up to to look at a bunch of cars, among which was this amazing Subaru 360 Young SS—the sporty version of the tiny Subaru 360. Where the normal 360 made about 16 horsepower, the Young SS one, with its twin carbs, made a ravenous 36 hp—that’s 100 hp per liter, before any of you smug bastards laugh. That’s no joke.

It also has a dent (intentional) in the roof to help hold a surfboard, which is cool.

Anyway, I love it.

Nobody Wanted the Most Futuristic and Confusing Car of the 1990s
Nobody Wanted the Most Futuristic and Confusing Car of the 1990s
The 1990s can be considered to be the start of the “modern” era of automotive design and technology: we get true aerodynamic-based design, extensive use of computers and electronics, and most of the features we take for granted today. The 1990s also saw the creation of what may be...

Help Me Understand the Mystery of the Sign of the Two Dodge Omnis, Good and Bad
Everyone, everyone, settle down! I need your attention! Over the course of a week I have somehow encountered two Dodge Omnis, each one representing an extreme of condition of Dodge Omnis still in active use. While I am certain this is a meaningful omen, I am not yet certain...

The TC Stands For Total Crock
The TC Stands For Total Crock
No matter what Chrysler says, the TC by Maserati is totally just a tarted up LeBaron. Same chassis, same platform, same engines, mostly the same bodywork. The 200 horsepower 2.2-liter turbo model had Cosworth-built-Maserati-finished cylinder heads, but this version with the 3-liter V6 was all Mitsubishi power. Man, Chrysler...

Tame Impala — 'Alter Ego'
Traffic sucks, so why not start your morning off with some music? You provide the toast and we’ll provide the jams. I used to listen to Tame Impala while I shoveled the driveway back when I lived in Michigan. It’s taken like six years to not feel chilled to the...

We’re Throwing a Reader Car Show at Our Le Mans Party Next Weekend! Submit Your Ride for a Chance at Glory
Here at the staff of Jalopnik, there’s nothing we love more than . Gridlock, parking costs, harsh winters, a near-constant temptation to dump your ride in the Gowanus Canal and tell your insurance company it was “stolen”... it’s not an easy life! But we are throwing our party here...
