I’m 99.99% sure that the USA is the only place where the old 2.5 lump is still being used in the STI.

Mazda 3. 6 speed manual. In non-Mazdaspeed guise it will pull 40mpg cruising. Best small car this side of a MX-5.

I have spent $4,236.55 to drive 27,379 miles in my ‘01 525i Touring over the last 18 months.

I have averaged 21.03 mpg.

Fuel costs me 15.4 cents per mile in that car.

The difference between my car and my wife’s 2010 Ford Focus is not that much.

2010 Ford Focus: 30.62mpg average.

$4033.89 to cover 34,807

Average fuel cost

No, not a DCT. That sounds like curb. If you listen close you can hear the pause for the manual clutch.

The fender ‘Z’ really cheapens it. Looks too much like that Datsun shitbox.

Also you cannot dent carbon....

He dove dangerously inside someone else and clipped their wheel.

That’s a benz in a cheap suit.

Chrysler minivans eat transmissions. That’s why their maintenance costs are so outrageous.

I’ve put ~$3500 in parts into my BMW in the past 18 months (not including 30,000 miles worth of oil changes @ 5k

I hope that’s a joke....

Clip your fingernails after you work on your car but before your shower. This will expose all of the grease under your fingernails (even if you wear gloves, you’re bound to get a little greasy) and it will all come off when you shampoo your hair.

Inappropriately timed burnouts. Integrate yourself into a funeral procession and commence.....

I’m too tall. not enough head/shoulder room. I have the same issues with window seats on airliners.

If I could afford one....

FB RX-7 with a blown 12a. Still funny (if dangerously slow) in the mountains of NC.

Gravity Assist FTW.

93 in the US is roughly equivalent to 98 in Europe. The difference is in how it’s measured.

Euro is RON-only.

US is (RON+MON)/2.

It’s one of two things (or both): Euro emissions are more lax than US emissions, and the Euro duty cycle is far different than American duty cycles, and as such each continent has different durability requirements.
