Meanwhile I bought the most stripped down GTI they ever made to avoid being stuck with a fucking sunroof. Sunroof is just a way of asking for water to eventually be in your car. Plus less headroom, added weight, etc. If I want the fresh air I’ll take my Miata out. 

1.8 NA Miatas have a cursed hose that goes from the back of the engine block to the oil heat exchanger. On the 1.6s there is a plug on the back of the block known as the cursed plug.

Yeah I mean basically we should have state run AAA that writes tickets. I think the likelihood of a criminal shooting their way out of a traffic stop would be a lot lower if they knew they guy pulling them over wasn’t armed and going to be checking if they have warrants or match description of a suspect. 

IDK I’d also be fine with armed agents of the state not being the ones to stop me for a light up hood ornament. 

Ok that’s filthy. I want one.

Now playing

Why remaster a game from 2010 when this is just sitting there from 2002 and is gold. 

1. Will be during the day too if there’s enough charging stations. Theoretically the cars plugged in at night actually can be used to add storage to the grid to help with solar. I could program my car to only maintain up to my daily commute plus some buffer, but get smartly charged by the grid when there is a surplus

MK7 GTI is an incredible all round car if it’s not broken. 

Well then you’re gonna be late for work. 

Yeah I didn’t mention that but decentralized energy production and STORAGE will be huge for electrification. Also remember that the cars themselves can act as energy storage when parked and connected to the grid but not being used. I could set my preferences on my car to say: pull power from my battery as needed to

For sports as with anything else you can’t go start defining whether someone is enough of a man or enough of a woman to do anything. Cycling who cares. Basketball who cares. You gonna be the one to go into a school and tell a student athlete that because of her testosterone levels or muscle structure she’s not enough

1. Average new car price in the US is $37,851. At this time it is possible to get several electric cars with good range for under that. In a few years with pretty much the entire industry is switching to electric there will be even more affordable options. That being said this is average car price and the fact that it

Here’s an idea: If you need people to make your business work then hire those people, pay them a living wage, and give them benefits needed to live a healthy and productive life. If you can’t do that AND make money, congratulations, your business model isn’t viable. Think of another one!

If you can’t do that and want

Its not a torsen diff vs a clutch. A 92 is gonna be an open diff or a viscous LSD. Some ‘94s are gonna have open diffs. Also, all the NA miatas across the board are worth way more now than they were a few years ago.

I understand that but there is also the potential issue of bumping the key fob while driving. 

They didn’t. They limited the vehicle speed to 26MPH if the frunk open warning is on. 

Suddenly limiting a vehicle’s speed to 0 due to a sensor malfunction or a mechanical failure is a terrible idea. 

Wait why can’t they set the fob to not open the frunk while the car is in motion or above 26MPH? 

Shallow DOF in a wide angle is pretty much the definition of a cinematic look. It’s part of the reason anamorphic get used. To give you a wider FOV to work with at background interaction and DOF of longer focal lengths. Some films also use extreme wide angles to amazing effect. For example The Favourite.

This is exactly correct.
