Honda has software to fix the rev hang...but only if you complain bitterly. My 2012 Civic Si 4-door was terrible between shifts and Honda got rid of it for me. It did make me mad that on the Civics if you change wheels and tires, the dealer has to reset the TPMS. There is no reset button. It cost me $100 to have it

Marina Blue with standard brakes and the colors match. Austin Yellow with the carbon ceramic brakes and the colors match. I never wear mismatched socks. I still favor the blue over the vomit yellow but I want CCB. What can I do? At least on the Corvette one can get matching calipers for $1K with some of the colors.

I bought a brand new 2003 M5 in 2003. I came from a 2003 E46 M3. The dealer made me a deal I couldn't refuse. I ran the car at Thunderhill once and after 2 laps, the brake pedal went to the floor on me. The brakes needed to be bigger and have way better cooling. Other than the brakes, the car was wonderful. Gas

I'll throw in the E90/E92/E93 M3...the last (and only) with a V8 and 8400 rpm redline. In 10 years, people will be sick of hearing their M3 turbos synthesized through the stereo speakers. Also non-electric steering.

My dad had a '67 Mustang with the same 200 cu in engine with 3-speed automatic. I could get the car up to 80 mph on the highway, flat out...85, if I removed the air cleaner covering the 1-bbl carb. Motor was rock solid...rest of the car rotted away in New England winters. I went to my Senior prom in that car...great

I can understand ordering the car and refusing delivery for whatever reason...but to trash the new car he just bought? It would be great if takes months to get a new windshield delivered, just so he can whine some more. Better call: 9-whine-whine or go out to dinner so he can whine and dine.

So when the cops arrived, he was in the backseat getting head?

That is some serious positive camber.

Can this be any better? In 60 years these pants will fit nicely up around their nipples.

Mostly cold & rainy but this last winter we did get two snow falls. We hit -10º this year which is very rare. Usually 40's and rainy.

Do they not make racing suits with A/C that plugs into the suit and/or helmet to just cool the body? When I had surgery 2 months ago, my hospital gown had a hole (not counting the back end wide open of course) where they pumped in heat to keep me warmer. It was freezing in the operating room.

Yea, I've been running Cup tires for almost 6 years, but I'm finally switching to the Super Sport. I mainly run the car in the summertime and at the track up in Portland, OR or down to Thunderhill. After the first lap, the tires are warm and stick like glue. When they are cold, the car understeers badly on the track.

I run Pilot Sport Cups on my E92 M3 all the time...on a hot day at the track, the tires are so sticky. On the minus side, replacements cost $2100 for a set of 4 and they are awful in the wet and cold. Hence my car in Oregon only has 7000 miles after 6 years. The Pilot Super Sport tires are much cheaper (almost half

7:52 is still fast. Basically comparing Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires to the Pilot Sport Cup tires of the CSL. The E92 M3 time was around 8:05 and the E46 M3 (non-CSL) was 8:22, I believe. Nice increase.

Sweet write-up. As usual, the M3 will be the benchmark for small? high-performance coupes and sedans. I'm betting most new owners will opt for DCT and/or CCB with 19" wheels. With every option available, both models come in at $90K. As a comparison, my 2009 E92 M3 with every option (must have everything) was $76K, so

It seems like a pretty good deal, even for $4500. There is an electric bike company in Colorado that sells electric bikes that go 28 mph and they start at about $10,000. I bought an electric bike 10 years ago (it lasted 2 years) and I paid $2,000 for it. It ran about 15 miles at a top speed of 17 mph. You can also buy

That poor guy is running with a bare behind!

I'm surprised he didn't add a trailer hitch to the Lambo to pull the boat. The car does have 4WD.

I think it was his beard that wore out the clutch...too much facial drag. Warranty OK for 5 o'clock shadow.
