I stand corrected!

Ah. Well that Toyota engineer deserves TWO days off!
The three electric motors give you the ability to drive about 16 miles on the battery alone, using just the front axle. They can allegedly get the car up to speeds of 84 mph and you can only reverse in electric mode.
What the hell was with the last sentence in that article?
I know what the new Mustang is. Handling isn’t all about raw numbers. ANY vehicle will pull impressive skidpad numbers if you fit sticky enough tires, and beefy enough swaybars on it. That doesn’t change the fact that the Mustang feels like a sloppy, heavy, wet noodle when you hustle it through some corners.
Again, I’m…
The base model might have more power than the 86 by a decent amount, but it also handles like a pile of poop compared to the 86... by a decent amount. It’s a great example of two cars that people love to argue are “direct competitors” when in reality they are designed to accomplish entirely different tasks, and are…
You don’t, but you should expect to be rhetorically asked about your qualifications when you make such bold, poorly-informed comments ;)

You have an AWD Subaru and garaged it all winter?!
I don’t attend meets and GTGs either. I’m mainly just an asshole in the FB group itself and that’s about it, lol.
Are you in the FB group “Chitown Subarus”?

Haha! I wouldn’t doubt it. Thanks!
So basically you want a BRZ with a header and tune ;)
Makes the engine go from feeling a bit anemic, to feeling “competent” and “what it should have felt like stock.”
And yet people complain that $25k for a 200 HP 4-banger is too much in the Toyobaru...
Meh. It had the look more of something meant to help if you over-rotate, or come down on your face, or side, or knee. It isn’t going to do much if you land in such a manner as to lock your knees and force your legs to bend the wrong way.
Oh... now I get it, lol.
