    Last Call: I miss crazy color paint jobs and the names that went with them

    Plum Crazy Purple might be my favorite paint job name of all time and I’m glad it’s still around. But I still wish more funky colors were popular/normal for everyone to roll with. I get that a businessman would prefer his grey 3 series over a Sassy Grass Green Challenger but you know what I…

    Tesla doesn’t really do advertising, they rely on word of mouth. Which honestly makes it even more impressive to see how big they’ve become doing just that. However, @BillyCrammer has just made one for Tesla anyways and it’s really good. You can tell that many of the clips are taken from Tesla directly, but the…

    I hate to laugh at the expense of other people’s misfortune, but this is pretty funny. The caption was funny and the replies were, honestly, even funnier. These kinds of videos always make me wonder what happened after. Was the owner pissed or did he find it funny because it was caught on video? I’m…

    I don’t know how to feel about EV drag racing. Generally, when I see a Tesla P100d beat some Ferrari I’m not all that impressed. I guess it almost seems like cheating? But two high horsepower (should we switch to Gigawatts, Marty?) EVs, and I’m intrigued. Ford has recently teased its own entry and it…

    The other day, Elon Musk responded to a tweet regarding the wading depth of the Cybertruck. It’s a fair question that I was curious about myself since Rivian’s truck can three feet. Musk responded saying, “yes it will even float for a while.” I don’t really know what that means though. Floating could be an…

    McLaren calls its new Speedtail a “hyper-GT” and I don’t really get what that means. So you want a GT car with all the performance of a real hypercar? Then why not just call it a hypercar? The whole point of a grand tourer is for you to be able to take it on long,…

    I’ve shown you guys some interesting trends while I’ve been doing Last Calls but this one is definitely not something I expected. Not that the Porsche 944 was a very menacing car, to begin with, but these turbos certainly don’t help. At least this one has an LSX to remind you that it means business.…

    The other day when I was getting groceries I saw this thing parked on the side of the road. Being a beat up 240 it caught my attention, but the anime wrap is what made me pull over. This is kinda like having an anime tattoo on your forearm. Everyone sees is and it’s kind…

    The new Lotus Evija is certainly a looker. But what else do you get for $2 million dollars outside of 2,000 hp? Well, for one thing, you get to design it yourself essentially. Lotus has created a program that lets you try out different paints, wheels, just like in a Forza game. But based on…

    I saw this on Reddit today and it definitely gave me a good laugh. As we finish up our 5th week (I think?) week of quarantine it’s hard to know when it’s going to end. And for some reason, the Crown Vic is the same way. Although you don’t see nearly as many of them…
