The C-HR’s styling is appealing; but unfortunately it’s a crossover instead of a proper hatchback. Being a Corolla underneath the bodywork means that it’s just a taller, heavier, more expensive iM. But it’s only available with a CVT.

I prefer the aesthetic of the old one. I’m not a fan of these that are caught half-way between looking synthetic and real. Maybe it’s meant to be more appealing to kids, but it looks like a cheap toy for something that costs over $1,700.

And people wonder why scumbag retailers like Best Buy are always on the verge of bankruptcy.

You might as well be arguing against GPS units in cars or map apps on phones. Those are the real world equivalent of mini-maps. This has nothing to do with bad game design. Open-world games are so vast that line-of-sight alone is simply inadequate for finding your way around.

Which means slightly degraded performance because the iPhone X has to drive a higher resolution display.

Like a lot of automotive technology, it’s a compelling idea that’s been around for a long time, but is finally viable because it can be made cost-effective and, hopefully, reliable.

I normally don’t care about concept cars, but every time I see the IDx it breaks my heart to think about what could have been.

People are idiots and should know better, but that doesn’t justify companies screwing them over. You might as well argue that it’s okay to steal from your neighbor because they don’t lock the front door.

I can’t speak to the legality of that, but it’s not much different than grabbing a guy’s finger to unlock his phone. Ironically, in this scenario a passcode is more secure.

It’s not a manual, but when cold, the DSG in my A3 always tends to shift harshly from 1st to 2nd. But it only does so in manual mode; if I leave it in auto it’s always smooth. Once the car has warmed up that quirk disappears. Upon learning the behavior it became a habit to just leave it in auto for the first few…

I have to say, I much prefer this design to the Tie fighters used in the new movies. This feels like a proper evolution of the old design.

In sci-fi movies cars tend to be loaded up with all kinds of superfluous accessories that are not remotely aerodynamic, but do look futuristic. That’s what this Lexus looks like.

If you think Star Trek has no nuance, then what the hell do you think of 95% of television which features simplistic, spoon-fed storylines?

Doing well in international soccer isn’t merely about having a lot of money. If nationality weren’t a requirement, then yeah, we could buy ourselves a Barcelona. However, the reality is that we simply don’t have a large enough pool of talent, regardless of whether you look at administrators, coaches or players. We…

Instead of a single, barely visible booster, I wish they’d have done something more substantial, akin to what is found in anime and Japanese shmups.

Personally, I’m surprised that no one has pointed out the Jolteon.

It isn’t just about larger homes. In many cases, it’s that the majority of jobs are located in areas that are simply not affordable for the average person. I live as close to work as I can afford.

Hasn’t this been a problem from the beginning of international soccer? National teams can’t buy their way to success. They’re wholly dependent on a sufficiently large population with a strong soccer culture and good, forward-thinking management. Being a wealthy nation definitely helps.

Good idea, but awful design... I can’t believe that Toyota managed to make a box ugly.

I guarantee some marketing wanker was responsible for that 42. The people who actually design and build these cars would have known that record was aching to be broken.
