I had an '05 hatchback, and absolutely loved it. If they release the 6 in HB form over here again, I'll be getting one without a doubt.

I know it's out of production, but I really wish that we had gotten the Silvia S15 or 240sx as they were called here. Beautiful cars, light, nimble and had decent power. I'd buy a used one if I could.

The diamond encrusted Mercedes SL from Dubai, is definitely up there.

Only to an extent. Yes, any change would require a certain amount of relearning on our parts. However, an initial reaction of "the heck am I even looking at?" followed by "this gives me a headache" does not denote any real level of intuitiveness. Design wise, it's busy, confusing to look at, and while it's fine when…

Um, intuitive by definition means that we shouldn't have to keep at it. I get the feeling that whoever designed this system forgot the KISS principle (keep it simple stupid), and was trying to emulate a news paper or letters to the editor section of a magazine. This format works fine for print, where the amount of…

Sorry man, I know that y'all are listening to us, and trying to make improvements, but this one just isn't intuitive. Can we figure it out and learn to use it? Sure, most of us here oare of reasonable intelligence so I have no doubt that we can adapt. But a system like this should be intuitive and easy to read, this…

Agreed, this makes zero to no sense and honestly hurts to look at. They need to stop trying to make it look nifty and start concentrating on making it readable. Take if from an artists, for things like this, design means diddly squat if it's not functional and easy to read.

I think it human nature, I do it as well, and so does everyone I've ever ridden with that has a manual.

LMAO well played sir.....also cold water out the nose feels so odd.

Agreed, plus you get to play with your stick at stop lights.....and yes, I'm aware, that's what she said.

It may not stop them from stealing the stuff in your car or smashing your windows, but in most cases, it's way more expensive to replace the car than the stuff inside of it.

In this day and age, at least in the US, a stick shift is a remarkably effective theft deterrent. After all, unless they have a way to tow the car, you can't steel it if you can't drive it, and most people seem absolutely mystified when a car has 3 pedals instead of 2. Heck, last time I valet parked, the guy that came…

Lol, that took about 20 years too.....I'm still not sure where the "r" comes from.

Agreed, but you left out ribs, and god knows you can bbq the hell out of those! Mmmmm pork baby back ribs *drool*

:facepalm: you're absolutely right, Kuykendahl at that point runs parallel to I45, you'd think that after living in that area for about 20 years I wouldn't make mistakes like that. Regardless, that is Splashtown's Space Rapids in the background.

So, at the risk of sounding slightly creepy; If the pic in the header is yours, then you were in Houston, and that's the Rudy's at I45 and Kuykendahl (pronounced Kirk-in-doll....no clue where the "r" comes from), and thus I'm guessing flew into Bush rather than Hobby. I'll agree with you that Rudy's has some damn…

Just to add insult to injury, red grapes are used to make some white wines as well. They are simply squeezed and the skins and pits discarded so that they pigment found in the skin (the part that makes red wine red).

I would beat the hell out of one of these in autocross and rallycross. And so long as they start around 18k or so, I wouldn't feel guilty in the slightest doing so.

It's 2 and a half of mine......holy crap that's a big supercharger.

It's what happened when the engineers at Jeep played too much Halo and decided to try to make their own warthog......and it was glorious!
