I get excited when I see one. They look cool, are pretty rare here, make nice noises, and are damn interesting in this sea of beater Corollas, Lexus crossovers, and domestic pickups.

Yeah, shoes clicking is the biggest sign of douchiness. Oh...wait. Don’t all cleats do that?

Most of the people on this site, writers included, are millennials. Yes, we are clearly the the crux of all that is wrong with making everything “safe,” not generation that cooked up MADD and “Just Say No” and beat us over the head with “excitement is bad” and “even one tiny hit of a drug will land you in prison…

Yeah...I haven’t seen that BMW reference in a while. Even front-page articles are making Mustang jokes now.

It’s really good and right on point for this conversation. You should bookmark it for later, I’m glad read it.

Resident of SC. *laugh/cry*

But if you could stay warm AND have spectacular rear and side visibility? Best of all worlds.

Not sure if serious, but you couldn’t do that because there’s already a patent, probably quite a few, for dash vents and their various forms.

Is it that weird? Our nutrition facts-and thus, protein- are all listed in grams, and out weight is typically in pounds, so those are the two most handy and broadly used units.

Feature not a bug?

An old gf’s Dad had one, which I took for a spin on country roads around Greensboro a few years ago. It felt way faster than the 1.8T New Beetle I was driving at the time, and in my mind’s eye, also substantially faster than my current 95M NA. That said, I know lots of other Miata people who complain about the…

What species- especially from ones that we would consider intelligent like apes and whales- actively kills of their weak? Isn’t it mostly predators, humans, disease, and exposure that take care of that?

In words I got from a former cop: A cop’s job is to apprehend suspects and investigate crimes, not dish out street justice. We have the justice system to take care of justice.

I’ll just leave this here, man.

I do not follow. What does this have to do with speed limits?

It’s always been called German, at one point many many centuries ago, a little while post-Charlemagne, the “Holy Roman Empire” was changed to “Holy Roman Empire, German Nation” (Heilige Römische Reich, deutscher Nation). It’s been a cultural and linguistic identity for a long, long time, despite all of the political…

I don’t think there’s a causal relationship between speed and road conditions. A car weighs what a car weighs regardless of how fast it’s going (relativity notwithstanding). From a certain POV, it might be better if a car goes fast- it’s on the road for less time per trip if it has a higher average speed!

Any convertible in the summer in South Carolina.
Your options are: a) sweat and hope you don’t run into anyone with your colossal blind spots and
b) sweat through everything, have great visibility, and nearly die of sunstroke.

I don’t have to sit in traffic much, but if I did I’d probably have to get get an auto beater to drive in stop-and-go with. More than 5-10 minutes of that and my left knee starts to go. Not very heavy clutch either.

Is it bad if I’m secretly wishing we get so bad again that when a win comes along, we’ll overpower the damn yellowshirts and rip down a goalpost? Because holy crap that’s fun.
