Yeah, I need to haul a full load of lumber and $5k worth of tools. those are not going in the bed.

Because corners. Having driven the pants of a F SAE car nothing else will ever come close but I'm trying.

Ah, the Mercedes Squinter.

No, I had the air box pulled fiddling with other things. I came at it from the top. The air box comes over easy.

That winch is way undersized for a truck that large.

I think I had the sparkplug socket a 3 inch extension a wobble (not a swivel, those suck) and another 3-6? inch extension to clear.

I just did the plugs in my 2005 WRX last weekend...

Plugs on an EJ205 are cake. Pull the battery and have at it. There is a ton of room compared to an old American V6

Unless you're heel toe double clutch revmatching every downshift you've still got more to learn. If you can do that you need to be on the Pro-Am racing circuit.

None of this metallic brown. I want proper shit brown like my old '86 Jetta GL.

No, no no. Miata for the summer, WRX/STI for the winter. I'd they make a new god damn wagon you could haul the same as small SUV.

If you had a manual option which one would you choose?

It needs a manual from an enthusiast standpoint. I drove one, it's a good box but for the money I'd rather go the Cayman route or even a Vette. I want to drive the car, it's about the experience not shaving fractions of a second. Now for comparison the 458 I drove is just fine with the paddles, it's so god damn fast…

Why are they still using the Datsun name?

It's not like that life was forced upon him, he was not born into it like royalty. His personal decisions lead him to this point. He could have shut it down when he was getting popular in the mid 90's and faded into relative obscurity somewhat like Tiff Neddell .

Oh the life of money and fame, woe is me.

There is no last straw. He is an adult, we're all adults. There is no excuse for physical violence no matter how grumbly your stomach is.

The crash performance is going to be atrocious, no one is going to buy it. Plus cab overs handle quite strange to the uninitiated. I'd say it's down right unsettling at first.

It's significantly heavier, the weight of a motorcycle unitized engine includes the complete transmission. The long distance bikes like the Goldwing have a the boxer balance and pedigree while the BMW K1600 GTL has a surface plate smooth inline 6. There are very good reasons there is almost nil crossover between the…

Because motors like in the BMW S10000RR make over 200 HP and weight significantly less. The Kawasaki H2R makes 300 hp out of a supercharged 1000cc inline 4.
