Dunno why, but always a fan of that grille.  I mean, it’s a Gillette Mach 3, but still handsome.

In high school and college these were THE car for hot chicks to drive.  It was like an 8-1 ratio, almost guaranteed.  Then it was the Mazda 3.  Now, I dunno (guess I’m old).

The only Lexus I’ve considered buying.  On the rare occasion you see a well cared for one on the road it still turns my head.

What always sold me on this gen Prelude was the long hood/short deck design.  Looks very RWD and well proportioned.  And just attractive, sporty, and no gaudiness.  I’d love Honda to revisit this design language.

That made me lol too much.

Owned 3 Mustangs over the past 15 years. They were basically bulletproof but horrible materials/fit/finish. Also owned a new Focus ST for less than a year (totaled, thank God). Thing already felt like it was falling apart less than 4k. Squeaks and rattles galore. Door trim coming off. A few missing screws in the…

That dude sweeping.  He’s got the best “this happened at work today” story at the bar tonight.

My 2013 Boss 302. GHIG, Recaros. I had just finished PT (physical therapist) school after multiple career changes. I was doing travel therapy, making awesome money, and the Boss is what kept me motivated to get thru school. Aside from the LRA, it was my dream car, exactly how I’d option any car from the factory.

Lived in Dallas at the time and went to that Lions playoff game a few years ago. When that PI was reversed, no one in the stadium had a clue what was going on. We just saw the ball move back. No PA announcement, nothing on the BIG screen. Then Cowboys go-ahead drive there’s at least 2 blatant holds on Suh that weren’t…

What do I have to do to my GTI to get this sound?  Fiat makes the best sounding 4-bangers.

Isn’t that the truth. Staggered looks great, but kills handling on this platform, makes it an understeering pig. Worst mod I’ve ever done to a car. I originally had 275's all around, much more enjoyable, perfect balance between grip and tossability.

Made me lol.  Good job.

That steering wheel looks perfect for a 90's Corvette with the “Deluxe” package.

Yeah, always looked forward to her columns.  Even as a teenager I could appreciate her writing.

Unfortunately not. American GTI is built in Mexico, American Golf R built in Germany. Really bums me out. All I want is a GTI SE with plaid seats, manual and Cliff Green.

Never did.

So true! I was just thinking about that this morning doing my porcelain throne routine. Was reading my car mag, showed a concept car on Pirellis, thought to myself, “I hated those on my Boss 302".  Such an unpredictable, lousy tire.  There’s a reason they’re not used at the Track Attack.

First car, ‘97 Integra, had just rotated my relatively new wheels/tires. Few days later I feel a vibration, only when braking. Ask my dad about it (he’s generally highly knowledgeable about these things), he looks over the car, we jack it up, shake the tires, look at suspension/brakes, can’t find anything.
