The technologically updated (Kinja) Car blog just downgraded from a 6-speed to a (sometimes) 4-speed. Excellent. A real shame too, I really enjoyed Ms. Maynard's gear posts. Maybe some people felt they were a bit too long, but I appreciated the in-depth analysis on top of the actual news blip itself. Sometimes a short…

*sigh*, I was playing along.

I'm sorry, what is a litrecola?

I don't mind cars in movies so long as it's only a few or a single starring role car. When a company wins the sponsorship and all you see is a single make everywhere, it's noticeable and a bit obnoxious to car guys such as myself. The majority of the population doesn't give a rat's ass; I wouldn't be surprised if they…

I'm glad somebody noticed this!

Books on tape. Seriously. You can get so lost in a book that you'll remember nearly all of the details and almost none of the drive.

What you can't see is that the Yellow Beetle doesn't have any wheels on it.

What's the deal with that? I fail to see how that comparison is at all relevant. Are buyers of the Cayman also the same market as the BRZ? Not likely.

Looks like everybody ignored Neutral and went straight to 3rd gear, lol.

I didn't, I was referring to my own experiences. Glad to see more of us on here!

Cue 1,000,000 votes for the BRZ/FR-S/GT-86.

Wait, are they still considering the 2 and 4-series names? I was content in thinking they dumped the idea.

Even Doucheyacht in his 5GT would agree.

I hate to break it you, man, but even Aston Martin has to lower itself to an iQ. Besides the niche-market toy and supercar manufacturers, everybody is in it for the money. You can't make cars for the enthusiast unless you have the capital to back it up when it doesn't sell in high volume.

And if nothing else, if you are the owner of a RWD BMW, at least you can chuckle at Senor Douchecanoe for buying the badge instead of the car.

If I saw his writing on a facebook status, I wouldn't complain. I would just de-friend him. Why don't you take my comment towards somebody else a bit more personally, Mr. Rooster-Smack?

Only because you made a Sir Francis Bacon reference.

How dare you ruin my favorite meme by forcing it to mingle with that unbearable word.

I foresee this FWD BMW discussion becoming as heated and opinionated as the 'Diluting the M-brand' and Mini Countryman nonsense was.
