I almost joined twitter yesterday, just to follow Clarkson so I could see his posts on the subject.

It doesn't have to be the old CRX, but it does have to show the Abarth and Mini S that Honda is still relevant.

I always wanted Need For Speed to do Need For Speed: Shitboxes. Have roughed up econoboxes in a game a lot like Underground. Cars could be upgraded, but as they increase in performance the more likely they are to have a catastrophic failure. The cars would also get in worse and worse shape the more racing on them…
I said high-ish, because I couldn't remember how high, not a slight on the engine, sorry if it came across as such.
It think the GT and the XRS are interesting mixes and at the time they came out good value for the money; Probably still are. But I stick by my feelings that the engine and the body didn't match up well.…
Oh ok, sorry I didn't read it that way. I am a bit dense though and there are folks out there claiming that their [non-outstanding car they own] is the best car ever and get bent out of shape when told otherwise.
Chrysler's K platform was born at the worst period of the automotive industry, so nobody expected much in the first place, yet Chrysler managed to surprise us all with a run that lasted until 1995. Amazing achievement considering the products.
Turn it down a notch. The vibe was cool, but one must admit that it hasn't aged well. I love the looks and even wanted one until I drove Both the GT and the XRS Matrix and realized that it wasn't as sporty as sold. Sort of a combo between a Corolla wagon and Celica GTS. The large body made the high-ish reving 1.8 seem…
Cool to hear it from someone who was there. That had always been my assumption on what happened. I had once bought the wrong pitch nuts and discovered it while installing them. They will go on, and at time even torque, but they doesn't quite hold properly. Neat to know that my assumption was correct. People keep…
Yeah, just pointing out how much that combo would have been the Starquest. It looks so much like one just the way it sits.
Basicly, make it a Starion?
I love the first gen car. Both the hard and soft tops are beautiful and in line with some of the best looking cars ever. It is a car that can get lost though. It's lines have been borrowed or are close to many other cars of the time. This makes people who see the car for the first time think they know what the car is.
I say Porsh and call it good. I pisses off Porsche folks. But the truth is that is the US English pronunciation. It isn't like we don't rape other German pronunciations.
Probably not a brake fluid spill on the hood. Dodges just had crap paint back then.
These wings can do more than just provide down force. They can also provide directional stability. An autocross buddy of mine had an Evo RS and had a change to drive an Evo with a wing. He note the cars are being different at speed, sighting the uprights as much of a contributor to the stability as downforce given by…
I think the goal is to not wreak cars; So things look a little padded. They place cars in reverse poll order to make some excitement in passing. They probably even have the driver not push for position before the a at least the first turn.
Weight. Less weight to lift with the rocket, less to send to mars, less to slow down, less to turn and move around once on the surface.
For the job they were speced to do why go heavier than needed? Also realize the the funky cool mesh wheel on the lunar rover needed to be what they were because they were the…
Completely a agree. I found myself forced to look at a Premium, just to avoid that horrible wheel. It is like they make it that bad on purpose, just to move to up +$2K.
I have 2 big ones for me.
Good steering wheel: Really you touch it all the time it should be nice. Some of the stuff they put in cheap cars are horrible. I'm not asking for much, good plastic would be fine. Leather is great. Seriously a leather steering wheel cost the company 10-12 dollars more?
Cruise control: Many…
