You said psychoanalysis. I must now post this video:

I think you misunderstood what he was saying. With some of those old, rickety cars they drive, I’m sure highway speed FEELS a lot like Mach 73.

I think we’ve found his problem! :P

Maybe he should buy one working car instead of 12 broken ones!

It only cost me $500 to get my only car ready for a Chicago winter!

“Head on collision...”

AKA, hit someone traveling in the other direction. So the impact was probably at least 100 MPH against a much heavier vehicle.

Thanks! Plenty more photos on my blog!

I never said I expected it to be worth anything. If this was going to be an investment, I wouldn’t be autocrossing it, and wintercrossing it, and trimming the side skirts and driving it year-round in Chicago, lol. I plan to keep the car forever.

I actually didn’t do them for looks. I did them solely for paint protection. Stock wheels are 17x7s with 215s. My current wheels are 18x9s with 255s, and I have -2.5 degrees of camber. So they come out quite a bit further, and the tires are much stickier (Michelin PSS). I needed the rock guards to protect the paint…

Welcome to my car! The only irreversible mod so far is trimming the leading edges of the side skirts and rear spats so that the rock guards would fit properly. I look forward to (hopefully) having a relatively clean BRZ in 10 years, lol.

Fuck all of this RocketBunny nonsense.

Jeez. So much hate in the comments. Am I the only one who thinks this looks good? It’s crisp, and grown-up looking. Does a good job of looking distinctly Volkswagen while also not looking like they just over-inflated a Passat.

Haha, I was very careful to add “salt-less” Florida to make it clear that it was the CAR wanting to go back, because no sane PERSON would ever want to do so.

Maybe it’s just trying to get back to sunny, salt-less Florida.

Eww, never!

Exactly. Not sure why you’d want to turn your car into a mess like that. My car is only two years old, but it literally still looks brand new inside, and all it takes is not eating food, which is fine because I’m driving! I’ll stop for food if I need to!

I drive a BRZ. It is a cheap, bargain basement sports car.

If you try to bring even one potato chip inside with you, you will be greeted by the sight of your own blood as it pours from behind your eyeball sockets.

Unless you’ve managed to make it inside my car. Because I don’t want any blood stains either.

Static Friction > Dynamic Friction. The spinning tires on that Colorado were providing relatively little force. The C-Max could have the worst tires in the world and it probably still wouldn’t have moved.

When you really stop to think about it, it is completely nuts how fast “comfy daily drivers” are these days.

To be fair, there isn’t nearly as much to go wrong with an electric plane. Each motor is one moving part, and if you have multiple motors, then you don’t need as many movable flight surfaces since the motors can do a lot of the maneuvering. Hell, think about how your tiny toy drone only has 4 moving parts and pretty…

I’ll throw a quick story in that my dad likes to always tell me - in super short form:

When he was younger, he had a Jaguar E-Type Convertible (V-12). Well one day he was apparently doing V-12 Jaguar E-Type things (read: speeding) when he passed a cop with a radar gun. Being young and dumb, he gunned it until he was…
