Can’t afford the m235i/m2? Then a manual and Track Package are a MUST for the 228i. Otherwise your are left with a soft and bloated, lackluster BMW.

They are to keep cars with different bumper heights from running into your body work when they tap your car while parking. My Dad’s Etype always had dings around the leading edge of the bonnet because some jerk driving a Rolls Royce at his work would always park by feel, and the bumpers on the Jag were a good 4-6"…
Even as an enthusiast, I know full well that I don’t need the 260-ish horsepower I have 99% of the time. It’s so worth it when I get a time and place to actually use it, though.
Fast forward to 2016, and as Regular Car Reviews points out, linked to that fantastic three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic gearbox, a 1976 Chevette is putting 23 horses to the road.
I would expect really nice floor mats to be included already for $168,000.
So your saying I now have to buy the carbon fiber engine cover to make up for the additional weight of my overweight floor mats?
My rearview camera has been more reliable than my mirror in pretty much every situation... mirrors and windows get dirty too ya know
Then you just use the mirror...
If I had to choose just one model, it’d probably be the Chevrolet SS, especially any unit configured with the manual transmission.
I have a friend who was a cop and he always said that Reno 911 was to him the most realistic TV show about police work.
I hope it’s just for photo ops and the Raptors come home. It’d be a giant waste of airframe hours.
Wow, didn’t realize diplomacy was that easy. He sure has a great strategic and diplomatic mind.
Dolby replied to a comment that stated, “ if you’re not talking about pure straight-line speed, it can hold its own on any road course.” His statement was refuting that, and pretty successfully, I might add. He didn’t state that “it’s shit,” but he is right that it doesn’t belong on this list. If we’re talking about a…
Bikers are like gun owners in that aspect.
That’s simply idiotic, though your admission of being part of CM makes sense. There is NOTHING glorious about this. Reckless riders put the rest of us at risk by pissing off drivers.
90% of the time when people say V4, they mean I4... but V4 do actually exist.
You might not be aware of this, but some cars ECM will automatically shut off/clutch the AC compressor in order to reduce the engine load at high RPM...
Actually.... I don’t know about 20hp, but I do have an old (90s) 4 banger (fuel injected, OHC) and you can sure as hell tell the difference with the A/C on.
It’s such a fantastic car. I currently own a ‘13 Focus ST and love the car (except for the just okay Recaro seats). With a few bolt ons and a quick tune, the car is flat out amazing for the money.
