Jim Gaffigan to Go Camping with Noted Eccentric Millionaire Jerry Seinfeld

Everyone knows that Jerry Seinfeld is a Porsche guy, but what you might not realize it that he’s a pretty serious VW guy. His love of air cooled Wolfsburgers is well reported, and one of his Beetles recently set records at Amelia Island.

Now he’s bringing another air cooled VW to the screens of the nation, with his internet series, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.

In the first official trailer to the show’s latest season, 8, it is revealed that Seinfeld will drive comedian Jim Gaffigan, famous for his food-related comedy and his Saturn commercials, in a Westfalia.

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffees follows serial dater Jerry Seinfeld as he seeks to go on a first date with every comedian in America and takes each one out in a different car. The cars generally relate in some way to the show’s guest, so we can only guess at why Seinfeld chose the VW for Gaffigan, but his family-friendly brand of comedy (which makes it sound less funny than it is) may have impacted that.

The new season starts on Thursday, June 16, and you can watch it at comediansincarsgettingcoffee.com.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier. The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow. While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something . To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it. Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait. So with this in mind, we lined our G...
