I prefer simpler, less optioned cars with as few electronics as possible because I have a totally rational fear that everything is made like crap and it’ll all stop working as soon as the warranty expires. I prefer manual crank windows, manual steering, manual transmissions, and all the other Luddite things in a car…

It’s “fun” and will fit all of your spawn, grubs, and larval units. All while still having plenty of room to haul all that day outing luggage.

The answer is always Miata:

How to define “faster” here? Which is faster at emptying your wallet? Which is faster coasting down a hill? Which is faster in first gear?

DEFINE YOUR TERMS!

Every time you log in, first thing you do is carjack a mid-level value NPC car and take it to a custom shop to sell it. Should net you between $4-$10k. It’s not much, but it IS something.

Inspired by a Black & Tan edition Miata....leaves out the black exterior, does a completely different shade of brown for the interior.

Might make for an interesting art installation, if it properly melted itself into one piece.

Porsche 993 oil change: The second oil filter requires you to remove part of the exhaust system and unbolt/remove a hard oil return line from the engine block before you can even gain access to the filter to remove it. A simple oil change on a 993 takes hours to accomplish.

...and don’t even get me started on…

One of the much overlooked factors for deciding which is best is the practical DIY aspect of ownership. There are lots of supercars out there that are awesome on the road, but are maintenance nightmare shit boxes in the garage.
Sure, I’d love to have a supercar, but not one that has to be completely…

Put linear actuators on both rear corners so you can dent/undent at will. This will put you up to the next level in anonymity.
“I barely recall seeing a car, but I *think* it had a dent on the LEFT side of the bumper, not on the right side.”

A grey, oxidized Camry with a rear bumper dent. This is second only to an invisibility cloak.

Spend the rest of the money on something presentable.

You know, your kid is right. That IS how it’s pronounced. He doesn’t need help at all. He just knows how to speak proper Italian.

I’ll throw some glitter :)

I totally agree with you that it’s Alfredo Romanique Guacamole Benedict Cumberbatch Frogger Leo

I’m sorry I misread it. Now I realize it’s Alfalfa Rhodan Guillermo Del Toro Quadrophenia Logo

I’m intrigued by this new Alfa Raul Julia Quadrapalegic

Sporty has nothing to do with the car’s performance. It has everything to do with trying to attach a demographic to the car’s appeal. It’s more about a person considering *themselves* as “sporty” (or “active” or “hip”, etc) and thus fitting the car in question into their “sporty” lifestyle.

He crashed during a gawdamned PARADE LAP?!

Parade laps are supposed to be run at slow, slow speeds.

....and then you have the wonky Chevy Volt, which artificially *simulates* that clicky sound & dash light in the cockpit....but actually has nothing to do with the actual switching on/off of the external turn signal lights on the outside of the car. The dash lights/clicky sound are out of synch & flash the turn…
