The last three road trips I’ve done, the worst offenders of this have all been mustang drivers. I’ll leave the psycho analysis about why that is to Regular Car Reviews but I think there is something to it (I’m going as fast as anyone should need to...).

Ditto the other poster, the article clearly states that a trooper will go after both the person camped out over the speed limit and the speeder. Your judgment about speed and convenience becomes a mandate to everyone else when you camp out in the left lane.
As a runner for over half my life, I have probably covered more miles on foot than most people and without a doubt most People are really bad drivers when it comes to pedestrian safety. They roll through stop signs, roll into crosswalks on red lights, don’t yield the right of way on walk signals, and they use…
I don’t disagree with your choices, I myself have my eye on a 128i. But it seems like your qualms are more with depreciation and others’ opinions of value than this car model. Someone in one year is going to say, “Why would anyone buy a new (insert non-luxury $20k car) when they could get an ILX with 20k miles for the…
In my area there is so little in the way of CPO cars so comparisons like that don’t mean much to me,
I understand. I think the pedestrian models are still on 6 speeds but I was in part giving a real world example. Chiron has fancy DSG, GTI has DSG that's very well received for $25K. Not the same unit but maybe the Chiron has tested tech or ideas that appear in the GTI.
I don’t know all the tech at hand here but of all the dual clutch transmissions, VAG’s tend to be the most positively reviewed. It could be an example of the trickle down you are talking about.
I kind of agree with you. The only reason I don’t completely agree is that it’s hard to draw the line between stupidly unusable and amazingly awesome. And quite frankly I don’t know what that line is. And although I tend to think that anything that costs more than a million dollars(and I’m not just talking cars) is…
Conservative politics and policies don’t explain all of this away. The sheer fact that you correlate Trump style politics with millenials demonstrates that there is a disconnect. In most polls something like 85% of Trump supporters are over the age of 45.
Oh, I’m sorry did you see anything about the people clapping being millennials? I get far more sideways glances and scoffs about my child being a toddler and acting like a toddler from baby boomers.
This. This car. Way more so than any BMW. This car screams money. I'm only disappointed because I wanted to write it, but no need to write it twice. The only better answer is the rolls posted above.
Yeah, the question isn’t whether the Kia is $20,000 less good than a BMW. The question is whether the Kia is $10,000 better than the Golf Sportwagen? Or I guess more accurately, $5,000 more than a more comparably speced sportwagen. Its a shame VW doesn’t do a GTI wagon, with more boost, lower ride height and stiffer…
Two things. This car *has* a manual. Also, a quick search of my local craigslist showed no forester xts with a clean title and under 190,000 miles for under $10,000. Though the PNW loves their foresters so that may be why.
If this had the Kia 2.0l so it were more in the 190hp range, it would speak to me more, I know it would be counter to the cars purpose but it would make it pretty fast for what it is.
Swoon.
Nothing crazy.
It’s nice but I don’t think it’ll have me thinking like Danny Brown, “got me plottin, got me plottin, got me thinkin, got me thinkin, how can I come up, and get myself a Lincoln...im a continental, contin continental..."
The day I bought my 89 535i the heat shield was rubbing the driveshaft, the brakes were shaky, the control arm bushings shot, and it had no muffler, it was a teeth clenching drive for the 2 hours it took to get home. 3 months later, with all of the above fixed for very little cash, and an MAF conversion, and it’s a…
The flex is high on my list of “cars that would be way better if they were 8% smaller”.
