Seinfeld and Gaffigan go Glamping in a Westfalia

Last week we posted about the teaser for season 8 of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, and now the first episode is up. Jerry Seinfeld’s guest is a 1977 Volkswagen Westfalia. Oh, and some guy called Jim Gaffigan.

As is the norm, Seinfeld takes Gaffigan on a tour of New York City as the two talk about comedy, life, and that special feeling of vulnerability that you get when your knees are your crumple zone.

As we know, Seinfeld is a fan of VWs, and an especial fan of the Microbus. He owns one of his own, with which he helped his son sell lemonade.

This lime green model doesn’t belong to Seinfeld, but it looks to be a pretty solid example of the breed, if you’re into pea-green plaid, as, apparently, people in the ‘70s were.

Seinfeld says he picked the Westfalia for Gaffigan because it’s all about efficiency. Any time you can fit a kitchen, closets, and two bedrooms into something this small, you know there’s been a clever use of the available resources. This, he says, is like Gaffigan’s comedy, because of his economy of words. And also because he’s widely known to be a family man, and what says family like a Westfalia?

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...

Novitec, Unsatisfied with Aventador SV, Adds More Veloce

The Lamborghini Aventador SV is no slouch, but if you’re into Lamborghinis, chances are you’re into big numbers. Whether it’s in the bank or under the hood, a big number could, and perhaps should, always be bigger, which is where Novitec steps in. Novitec has been modifying Italian cars for years, and their Torado line is dedicated to making ridiculous Lamborghinis even more ridiculous. Their latest effort takes the Aventador SV and remaps the engine to give it 786hp and 544 lb-ft of toque. They’ve also fitted the car with a new exhaust system that cuts 50 lbs off the car. Other mods include a carbon fiber aero package, spoiler, front splitter and air intake, all of which helps it shed even more weight. The Aventador also sits on 21 (back) and 20 (front) inch Vossen wheels. So if you think that a regular Aventador is just a little too pedestrian, give Novitec a call and they’ll hook you up.
