I recognized immediately from the “spiral sculpture” description that it was likely the parking garage under TD building, and the spiral sculpture is the sign for “Jump” - a restaurant inside.

Don’t do a Corolla iM. I had a matrix in the past. It sucked. It was such a boring car (and it was even an XRS). I was never happier than the day a deer wrote it off.

It *is* a unicorn.

Putting high-octane fuel in a lower-compression engine will have no effect other than separating you from your money. It won’t make your car run any better or worse, so if you give your non-premium requiring car premium fuel as a sort of treat, you’re just giving it a big fat placebo.

Yeah, valid point. I was just discussing in a previous reply this exact point (sediment settling vs staying in suspension).

I wonder how low the pump pickup is though. It’s not like there’s a little robot in there vacuuming the bottom of the fuel tank with the pump pickup.... However the pump pickup would likely be in a recess of the tank (to make it the lowest point) so it would be where sediment would naturally collect. I’d be curious to…

But the filter is after the pump. So the question is - do you want your fuel pump to be sucking up dirty, sediment filled fuel, or would you rather it be sucking up cleaner fuel? I’d personally rather it suck up cleaner fuel, and just leave the sediment sitting in the bottom of the tank where it’s not hurting…

In response to 3 - then the sediment would collect in the fuel filter rather than the bottom of the tank.

Wouldn’t it be better compared to the RS5, not the S5?

It must have really been grounded to the ground for that lap time...

And the rear quarters are the same colour as the roof & rocker panels - that’s the “base colour” on these cars. Every other piece is bolted on - hood, doors, hatch, front & rear bumpers, front quarter panels, front grill.

I read this as: they had some random guy in the states getting them the codes, and then the jeeps would go south of the border, where “customers” would request a spare key from the dealership in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Not necessarily the same dealer providing the codes up front and the duplicate keys.

4th gear:

Does it like to rev?
(Background - had a 02 Civic Si, and the K20A3 (even though it’s the bastard child of the K series) just LOVED to be rev’ed. I would bounce that thing off it’s 7200 rpm fuel cut almost daily. I haven’t had a car since that was so eager to rev.)

“Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary, that’s what gets you.”

That was my question. Did they check in for that extra seat or not? Article mentions that the flight wasn’t overbooked, but that they were trying to fit standby passengers, so I’m not sure.

“With more power comes more efficiency. Diesels get much better fuel mileage than there gas counter parts especially when there towing weight thus they are actually better for the environment.”
