I like this idea. The Kizashi was actually a damn good car with a really stupid name and a severe lack of HP.

I believe the point is that he is responsible for encouraging and approving projects most car company brass would never touch.

That excuse wasn’t from the driver, it was the co-driver referring to losing his rhythm on his pace notes. Watch some old rally racing videos, the sound from a PDK transmission with no throttle lift is a marked difference from that of a manual box. And if you really want to what a hard shift feels like, go drive an…

Agree 100% on the Japanese business plan comment. I spent the past 20 years with two different Japanese motorcycle companies in the U.S. If all goes to plan, things are great. Upset the plan a little and they have no clue how to do anything but keep following the broken plan. Reminds me of the scene from Animal House…

Yet the Chairman of the company proposed essentially that very idea, which is what led to Horn resigning. They want to stop selling “mass market” vehicles in the U.S. and only sell “specialty vehicles” in this market. We all know how well that “specialty” Phaeton sold, which basically means stop selling cars in the…

Did you really have to ask this question? Yes, stop the fucking car and use that median cross over about 10 yards behind where she lost control of the car. Even in the absence of that opportunity to turn around on a section of paved road, stop the fucking car and don’t drive in to water.

You have to give the boys in Germany credit. They’ve managed to take a bad situation, albeit a recoverable one, and turn it in to what may possibly end up being the biggest shit show in automotive history.

It's still in the trunk on new Passats.

Never had a major issue with any of them. Strayed a few times, bought an Acura CL Type S once.......that Acura bought back as a lemon. To your question, yes, I was considering buying another six months ago when this cluster fuck broke. Remains to be seen how that will go. Current TDI is at 30k miles and has had zero…

Same boat. I went from a 120 mile round trip commute to a 3 mile round trip. Was ready to trade my TDI in and get a Golf R, but if VW keeps fucking around like this, the current may be the last of the 10 VAG vehicles I’ve owned and the more I’ll be tempted to start looking at legal options.

Actually the Street series is now the bottom wrung, then the Sportster, then it goes to some kind of Ultra Fat King Low Glide road couch that everyone pulls to Daytona on a trailer for vacation so they can play hardcore biker dress up in their badass sleeveless HD shirts before they have to get back to their mid level…

I need to go change my shorts......

Road markings don't look US

Yeah.....I didn't enjoy the video at all because of that fucking spelling issue! Oh wait.......I didn't really give a fuck. The video was awesome. Enjoy it for what it was.

“for shifting assembly patterns” is a little more complex than a simple change in a line of code.

You clearly haven’t seen the bikini clad yoga videos she posts of herself. Pretty sure holding the 30 second board is nothing compared to those.

One more nail in the US road racing coffin. So few people get beIN and fewer have even fucking heard of it. You want to grow fan interest and ultimately drive butts to the track, you need to have a TV package people can actually get. God I love road racing, but they just continue to do stupid shit. I had such high…

Come on! He only drove it for five years, clearly VW owes him the full purchase price. Better yet, why not MSRP.

Klim Induction jacket and gloves. Great protection and air flow. The only stuff I've found of very high quality that is tolerable in the heat and humidity of a Georgia summer.
