I agree with you on the power front but the GTI is FWD and a completely different animal. What this thing needs is a high-revving FA20 as the base engine and an FA20F (turbo) as the upgraded engine. That way they can satisfy the purists who want a simple and easy to use NA sports car as well as fairly quick upgraded…

Don’t ever change David. 

Well, Emily... Since you and your little one loved your last Mazda so much and they have only gotten more stylish since then, why not stick to the most obvious answer?

Why not a new Mazda3? Get the base engine with a manual, or go for the turbo. The CX-30 would also fit the bill, since it’s a Mazda3 on platform heels.

Yo, Ken, I’m really happy for you, and Imma let you finish, but I just got to say that Colin McRae is the most famous Subaru driver of all time.

I like it if the new car is actually similar to the old one. Not necessarily in styling, but in spirit. It’s got to be a similar type of vehicle.

Her energy was infectious. You watch the pure joy radiating from her behind the wheel and it makes you want to give everything up and become a race car driver, because being a race car driver is clearly the most fun any human being can have.

I need to change clothes today.  I need my Fuck Cancer shirt.  Because Fuck Cancer.

They have GOT to name a corner after her....... 

Easily the hardest CP of all time.

If it weren’t for PB Blaster, I’d have to walk to the store.

They got the idea from someone else.

Because in most places around the country, late November is winter.  The fall occasion is Halloween.

OK, that made me laugh.

It’s the new option package: Tesla Model Y-isitsowindy.

Well yeah she did it for attention, just like literally everything else she does.

I think the trailer behind the Discovery held an aluminum boat - there’s an outboard motor just lying behind it. It’s astonishing that it just melted away. 

I just want a current-gen version of the original Driver minus the ‘no fun allowed’ timer, shitty handling, and borderline psychic police. And am willing to do some serious slumming to service that need.
