Surprisingly, $20-22k is what 12-year-old RS4 sedans with six-digit mileage are going for these days apparently...

Hoonigan sticker, Texas tags but sold in Arizona, discoloration in the floorboards and trunk area with rust on the engine. and closing in on 200,000 miles?

They suck. Especially in the mountains. Motorboating from hell. Highlighted by the embarrassingly weak engines Subaru still pawns off on people.

Is Toyota finally cleaning up their overwrought design language?

If I was buying a new car I would immediately cross lexus off the list solely because of the grills. I imagine there are plenty of others who feel the same. 

Car and Driver’s road test of the last Versa described it well: “This car is great argument for buying a used Accord.”

A couple of years after the shock of its styling had worn off

Probably not a popular opinion, but I find the new MB interiors way too fussy and busy. The sarlacc monster air vents and all the LED lighting just seems way too over the top. Much prefer Volvo’s interior - calming and minimalist. And less distraction.

Counterpoint: from most angles, it looks like a used bar of lemon-scented soap. I think it’s ugly and still looks like it melted. i’d bet a dollar that Bruno Sacco weeps.

shoulda brought the wagon.... its nice

It will be reliable. That is the only positive about this thing.

$30k and these walmart speakers? GTO more like GTFO with this crack pipe!

Make sure your winter doesn’t include salt on the roads. These are built from compressed rust with a salt soluble binder and oxidize savagely.

But some blob of an SUV thing is Ford’s game now.

I think it’ll be the Mustang equivalent of this Camaro-inspired crossover

He’s wrong of course. It looks like a Honda Accord Coupe.

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

Learn to rev-match, down-shift to the lowest gear that will get you in the powerband, and floor the throttle. I guarantee you won’t have an issue. 66 HP isn’t a lot, but the car probably weighs as much as a Honda Goldwing.  

I like this thing, but I don’t five-grand like it.
