Those stock s13 coupes are just so pretty. Just perfectly encapsulates late 80's Japanese car design.

Youseguys - stop bitching. The CAFE war has forced automakers to use wind tunnels to make cars as streamlined as possible - this means they’re all going to look the same.

There are worse options to have. Think about this. With all cars being Corollas, you could choose from:

Rear wheel drive

Damn right.

I like mine.

Also check for TSB (Technical Service Bulletins) as sometimes an issue that crops up in your car might be fully covered. I had my 2002 Subaru WRX clutch replaced at 30,000 miles because of a TSB where the clutch would shutter when cold outside. This saved me a boatload as I thought I broke my car. I can't remember the…

You shut your whore mouth. These guys deserve praise for NOT going with a boring LS swap.

The problem with trust exercises is that there’s no provision in them for what to do if they go wrong.

Once upon a time, my school class was subjected to the ‘blindfold someone and lead them around’ variant. One tumble off the side of a road and skinned knee later, I learned the valuable life lesson that if you trust…

True...but if the question is “do I really need 6cyls?”...and you can’t find a new 6cyl Outback or Legacy on dealer lots, it’s the next best thing.

I've been hearing for years (since about 2000, really) that the 2.5 is underpowered. No it is not. Having owned two, I can tell you the engine has enough horsepower and torque to easily pass semis on the highway, go up mountain roads, and maintain highway speeds over hills. Even the 1998 Outback that I daily drive has…

It unfortunately sounds like you really didn't like the Outback. At ~9sec to 60mph, which is about as fast as the base engine XC60 and really pretty typical in the market segment. Why the hate?

Perhaps you have stumbled into Jalopnik by accident, sir.

I can see the Toyota Fuji merger happening since they already have a stake in Fuji Heavy. I wouldn’t be surprised if Mazda joined the fray as well. I can’t see Honda doing anything though. They seem too stubborn to get along with anyone else. Mitsubishi can fall off the planet for all I care.

Such a great car... when it’s not broken down.

Good one. We’re from the government and we’re here to help you. Is one of the scariest sentences you’ll ever hear.

Yeah, they are out there. Particularly the Chrysler-badged ones that were a bit more expensive when new. But, the very early pre-facelift Aries K/Reliant K are pretty close to extinct.

I actually saw a nearly pristine K-Car not that long ago. All it had was some dumb bumper stickers on it.

The FR-S/BRZ/GT86 don’t need more power. However, if they were to add more power I’d rather they do it through a reworked higher revving NA motor, shooting for something more along the lines of an AP1 S2K. Turbo isn’t the solution to everything. If they were going to go forced induction, which they won’t, a…
