Dunno about the rest of the world, but in the Hampton Roads area any 5 or 6MT equipped Subaru seems to be worth its weight in gold. My 04 automatic Forester XT blue booked around $6000 two years ago, but a nearly identical one with a stick didn’t seem to sell any lower than $10k. When I bought my 98 Legacy in ‘07,…

Baja prices are ridiculous. 2 years ago I found a blue turbo for $9000; that’s about what the average WRX was going for, BTW. The dealer didn’t list the mileage, but the pictures looked decent so I drive over to take a look. The car had 205,000 miles, and was beat to hell. It even had a partially disassembled engine…

I honestly thought it was China’s version of Team America: World Police

Funny this came up today, as my wife and I are currently on a road trip in my mom’s ‘06 Charger R/T. It’s not the prettiest thing, and I hate parking the beast; but it’s a dream on the highway, gets decent gas mileage for what it is, and has plenty of go-power to pass traffic. Not to mention the seats are wicked…

Story time: in 2011 I sold my ‘98 Legacy GT due to financial reasons. Fast forward to 2015, and my wife has “taken” my Forester, and “given me permission” to sell her Impala. I’m surfing the usual places (Craigslist and the like) for Miatas, and the guy who I sold the Legacy to tells me that he’s bought an Impreza to…

People seem to have an infatuation with America’s last non-super carriers

Let’s take a look at your argument:

When 5 of my coworkers asked me what was so funny this morning, I knew this had to be COTD

Forester: Tail light lens has been cracked since I bought it, and every 6 months I’m replacing a bulb because of water leakage. I really should fix that.

That’s actually kinda creepy in an ironic coincidence sort of way. My wife and I went car shopping on Saturday, and one of the local dealers called her a few hours after we left... we never gave them anything except her driver’s license. I already assumed that’s where they got her phone number from, but I didn’t know…

which has already left its Japanese home port for the last time.

I always figured there was already a nameplate with the name “Gose” on the board...

I’m pretty sure that’s against the Geneva Convention...

I remember that guy from when I had my ‘86 Monte - he’s a regular on MonteCarloSS.com (at least, he was in 2010 when I stopped going after I sold mine)

and Walmart’s Sam Walton drove an old-ass pickup truck

But is it a model of the the original, -A, -B, -C, or -D?

Story of every Subaru fanboy's life:
I love their cars, I loathe their dealerships

Okay, I have to laugh:

While I hope the driver was okay, I just cannot stop laughing at that

Unfortunately, it's not so simple. Each Nimitz-class carrier built was always slightly improved from the last (do a comparison between the Nimitz and the Bush, and you'll see a big difference), but - similar to upgrading an old computer - you can only do so much with something that was originally designed in the…
