ABS, by and large, is MUCH more similar across vehicles than the other systems I described. There may be nuances to how they operate depending on who the ABS supplier is, and the differences in how they are programmed, but for the most part, ABS functions very similarly on all vehicles.

My understanding is that people put them on luggage.

My understanding is that people put them on luggage.

Counterpoint: Things like ABS are standardized because, by and large, they do exactly the same thing on every vehicle.

More advanced systems are harder to standardize, because they don’t always behave the same. Some adaptive cruise control systems only slow to a certain threshold. Some stop. Some will accelerate from a…

Almost as pointless as camo-wrapping a new 911...

This is the worst kind of take. Seriously, fuck off. They sell a bajillion electronic devices every year. Progress is progress.

I’ve always flown Economy overseas, and it’s never been a great experience. However, for my trip a few weeks ago to Amsterdam, I flew Economy Plus, and that alone was an amazing eye-opener. Only $136 more for tons of extra legroom, and early boarding? Done. That alone made all the difference. I’m sure I’d love…

I’ve never flown Spirit, but that sounds like it. It’s just the most basic seats (thin frames, tightly packed, etc...) No in-flight entertainment or whatnot. Just a bare-bones, people-hauler aircraft. But it’s cheap, and it’s perfectly fine for a short trip.

I honestly don’t get all the hate. If you’re doing an 8-hour long flight on Ryanair, that’s your fault. But I recently flew Ryanair for the first time as a cheap “shuttle” from London to Toulouse, meaning it was a sub 2 hour long flight, and I honestly don’t get all the hate. Very basic interior. Basic seats. Etc...…

No other vehicle has these issues. It seems like it isn’t the lateral forces that are the issue. It seems it’s the yaw about the longitudinal axis (roll) that is the issue. The vehicle appears to be overly sensitive to “roll rates” to the point where it deploys airbags even when the vehicle isn’t anywhere close to…

Incorrect. That’s now how airbags work. My HELMET hit the pillar. My head would not have. The point was it was a very violent whip and stop, no different than anyone else has experienced while autocrossing - and something that Chevy seems to all-too-frequently deploy airbags for when it shouldn’t.

I don’t know anyone who pulls airbag fuses for autocross, and I don’t know of anyone who has had this happen to them, either. Even on sticky RE71Rs, my BRZ hasn’t done any of that to me, even during a violent spin that had me actually hit my helmet on the pillar running over the driver’s side window.

GM’s algorithm is…

You make it sound like a car out of warranty immediately becomes a financial wormhole. I have a 72 month loan on my 2015 BRZ Series.Blue (3.1% APR). MSRP on the car was $30k. I paid $27,350. With TTL right back up to $30k. With the loan interest, $33k.

I’ve had the car for well over 4 years now, so I have about 20…

GUYS! I HEARD TESLA’S CARS CAN DRIVE FOR HUNDREDS OF MILES ON A FEW BOXES OF BATTERIES!!! NO REALLY!!!

A 911 isn’t an “as minimal as possible” car. A BRZ is. A Miata is. A 4C is. This is a luxury performance car. I could see this complaint being leveled at motorized door handled on a GT3 RS, but not the standard 911.

I saw the lead photo for this article, and thought, “Wow, that’s unnecessarily large and silly-looking.”

Then I scrolled through your historical photos, seeing the progression of the grille, and when I got to the 2020 car, which was the same photo, it was so hilariously large in proportion to the others, that it looked…

HRE FF15s :)

He can’t afford an exotic. So instead I gave him something that fit his description for what he wanted in the car.

Neither is the Mustang recommended in the article. The BRZ fits the criteria perfectly:

A BRZ with some fancy wheels, and a slight suspension drop can look pretty good :D

Did you fuck a mermaid, tho?
