I Drive New York

I.Love.Tuesdays.

Y’know… when I was doing my grad work years @ Boston College, I owned a ’79 MGB-LE Limited Edition. These cars were indeed vintage, and despite the fact that owning a car is always a problem I kept mine there, and drove everywhere I needed to go. I had lots of places, too; like school, work, and the store; where I was expected on a daily basis. This ‘sports car’ was dependable regardless of what some people may think about MGs, or sports cars, in general. I had a great time driving, especially in summer, when I took girls to… Read more »

What are the odds? The first time I check out this site and it’s about guys with vintage cars in NYC! That’s Me! I have a vintage Triumph in Brooklyn, have to rent a garage a half hour away because I live in an old brownstone. ( No cars back then ) Driving a small British car in NYC is crazy but I love it!

This is my favorite Petrolicious video!!!! Thank you for your work guys! I love it! Looking forward to next tuesday! Thanks a lot!

Really nice video!

I live in Brazil and sometimes I complain that is hard to use a “normal” car in my city, I dont like even to dream about driving a vintage car here in a normal working day, but this video was really something to think about.

These guys have much more dificultties(?) than me to drive my old fiats at weekends, and only at weekends, in a city that doesn’t even compare to the size of new york.

keep the good work guys!

I worked for a major airline years ago. I was based in Detroit and then later in New York. I had a choice to move there so I didn’t have to commute to work from California in an Airbus A320. (Flight crews can live anywhere there is an airport!) I choose to live in San Diego and commute four times a month to my New York base because I couldn’t imagine driving my E28 M5 in New York traffic. I love New York because you really don’t need a car and I relished that lifestyle the few days I was… Read more »

Another GTV6 with a broken tach needle! I guess it’s not quite so WTF-y after all– and a beater Baja Bug looks like the perfect Manhattan DD!

As usual we got a fantastic video. Loved in particular the 911!
When I watch those videos the world becomes a better place.
Sometimes I forgot the luck I have for having a nice garage behind my house 😀

Keep up the good work guys!

This was a fantastic video!
I put it up there with your video featuring the Lusso-owner who only drove his Ferrari at nights.
Great!!

The only bad part of a Petrolicious video is that it comes to an end…when I would otherwise wish I could remain in its surreal world where life seems to slow down enough to actually be able to enjoy the mysterious, yet entirely real, connection of man and machine.

Is Raphael from Jalopnik? He seems familiar.

Finally that 911 you teased a while back on instagram! Cool piece, I like the different stories. Especially the first one about the only reason he’s in the car is because he wants to be in the car. great stuff once again.
