It's too bad that the ship from Tomorrow Never Dies isn't real and the Sea Shadow never amounted to anything because they look way better than the new stealth destroyers.
Hey, tall people need them and it's an embarrassment when an expensive car doesn't come with a telescoping steering wheel.
The real question is, will it have a telescoping steering wheel?
The Scion 10 series color is even better than that green. Even if it's silver, it still looks amazing.
God dammit. I can't believe I missed this. I know much better factory colors than any of these.
Do they still use hammers to make the windows fit?
Camry's don't have power tilt/telescoping steering columns at any price. The only Toyotas that have power steering columns are the high end Sequoias and Land Cruisers that go for 60-80 grand. I work at a Toyota dealership so I would know.
Jalopnik readers who recommend the Kia Optima must have never driven it. It has crappy suspension and brakes, the turbo engine feels weak, and the interior is incredibly boring.
The newest one isn't floaty anymore, however, it still has horrible steering. At the Toyota dealership where I work, this Avalon is bought buy some younger people. Mostly 30-50 year olds but geriatrics aren't buying it like they bought the old one.
great idea.
If Elvis Presley designed an outfit for Uma Thurman in Kill Bill.
I have never used the feature to change the gauges from mph to kph. It's not just inset numbers. The numbers actually change scale and the dial arm changes position. I guarantee anyone in the US and never drives in Canada has used this feature.
An important issue to fix in getting more people to focus on driving is to improve the steering feel and increasing the steering effort. Most Toyotas have zero steering feel. For example, a video game steering wheel feels exactly the same as the steering in a Sienna minivan. The Camry only has a little more feel. The…
It actually sort of is already in showrooms. The toyota dealership I work at just got one. However, there's no way in hell they're going to show it to any customers since they still have 9 old corollas just sitting on the lot. They're basically throwing them at anyone remotely interested in a car.
I just got the pun for the morning shift. I can't believe how far it flew over my head.
I've worked at a Toyota dealership as a detail specialist and service porter for two months now. Every customers prius that I've driven has been incredibly filthy inside except for one. There was a lady who worked for Homeland Security who kept hers very clean inside. Every other prius has been nasty.
I've driven both, even the FRS in manual and automatic. I still prefer the FRS, even with an automatic. It feels special at any speed while the Focus ST feels like a fast Focus. I'd actually choose an automatic FRS instead of a manual because it's more comfortable for me for an extended period of time.
You just don't get it.
Fuck all of those flavors, I want my spicy ketchup lay's back.
