I wouldn’t trade my WRX for the GTI but it is almost startling how much better the interior of the GTI is.

But the Touareg had a V10 TDI

Volkswagen will need a sales strategy that goes beyond relying on “German engineering” and a “premium feel.”

But can the police issue tickets on private property?

I’m puzzled by the person who wants someone else’s trophy.

See you in Vauxhalla!

I a bit confused as to whats going on with Alex? Is he normally like this? He seems so standoffish, like he got forced into doing what most enthusiasts would see as an awesome opportunity.

I doubt this is going to be popular but here goes:

The prime difference between white and black Americans is that most white Americans believe that the US is the greatest and best nation in the world*

Him in the 1960's: “Yeah, I mean it made sense when they were mad 50 years ago, but now that we’re letting them play baseball and everything? They’re just falling for race hustlers like Martin Luther King.”

A shame that these eTrade Golf Dads don’t know a single person of color (“a black,” in their parlance) with whom they can share this wisdom.

Reporting on the comment section. What a job.

Manuals are also way easier now.

Had a Focus ST, would sit on a two mile long hill that would take 20 minutes to clear in evening rush hour, wouldn’t get to fully let out the clutch the entire time because traffic was moving so slow....bought an auto, everything is better now.

I sit in SoCal traffic every day in a manual car, about an hour and a half each way. Don’t want to crawl into a dungeon. Would buy another.

Honda has now completely eliminated gauges, period. RPMs are now represented by a virtual horizontal bar, very similar to the speedometer found in a late 1980s Buick.

Back when I was a teen there was a tractor pull where one guy had a three engines on his rig. (I was not enough of a gearhead to know what type) He was getting ready for his run and revving up, making as much noise as possible to the cheers of the crowd. Suddenly all three of his engines just blew, everything failed…

Kinda, what the current Tube Frame trucks are capable of is amazing, but I do have a soft spot for that generation of Monster Truck as well as pullers. It seems that the modern stuff doesn’t have the character of the old stuff.

Am I the only guy that misses when monster trucks were actually trucks? I get that you can’t do what they do today with a steel body but I dunno those trucks seem so much cooler that what we have today

It’s no worse than a schoolbus
