Depreciation on these is nuts. I just found a 2012 with 35,000 miles for under $20k at a local dealer. My commute sucks. I might go buy it.

Wife has a 2013 Outback. That MPG gauge is the most annoying thing. It doesn't even have actual numbers on it, just a "+" and "-" It is constantly jumping from one end in your peripheral vision to the other when you switch pedals. And there is an MPG readout on the binnacle above the radio too! So it useless and

I'll agree that there is really nothing wrong with a 2WD truck and many people I know with 4WD trucks only put them in 4WD once or twice a year to drive down a dirt road they probably didn't need it for.

I love how the CLK-GTR used the same tail lamps as the standard CLK. Jalopnik did a piece in 2012 here

Came here to post the same thing. The 112i was my favorite back in the dial-up days of the internet. I remember waiting 5 minutes to download 800x600 wallpapers of it from supercars.net on my parents' Power Macintosh sometime around 1999.

Test drove both. Much more impressed with the GTI. Will just save my pennies a month longer.

I think they could make a front bench that complies with crash regs if they really wanted too. You can still get them in full-size pickups - even the 4 doors.

Didn't see LF-A mentioned yet. I'm just imagining generic 60 year old white dude walking into the dealership looking for a beige sedan to last into retirement the seeing this and freaking out that he has early onset Alzeimer's because he remembered the Lexus dealer being here last time he went by.

Love the car. I've actually been looking on CL here for an E61 manual. But too many miles for the prices. Hell any BMW without an M in the model number needs to be under $10k once it hits 100k for me to consider it.

Like the new ones or a vintage one? I've actually seen a few 60s-80s genuine Eames pieces on CL. The chair posted is an Erokones Stressless. They aren't cheap but they are like half the price of a Herman Miller lounger and seem to hold up well.

I've had a soft spot for dark red leather since about 20 years ago when I was in middle school and my parents who were normally very stingy bought 2 of these on a total whim for our TV room. They still have them. I think I spent 8 hours straight in one watching football when I went to visit this Thanksgiving.

Current ATS comes damn close

Both my 2013 Outback and 2007 Santa Fe have these pockets for the buckles. It is mainly so that they don't get in the way when you fold the seatbacks flat to expand the cargo area, but they are also nice when putting in car seats. I was under the impression that the majority of vehicles with folding rear seats had

I had them put on my 2013 Outback when I bought it too. For some vehicles they just work.

Yep. Back in college in upstate NY around 2005 I dated a girl that drove a white one just like that one. Even had an "SUS" badge on the back.

MN is right - you can't really custom order a Toyota - any Toyota in the Gulf states. The best they can do is look into the system and see if another dealer has it on the lot or in their order queue. The Taco in the story I told was pulled from another dealers order sheet and my friend had to wait 2 months for it to

It's ashamed that there is nothing in the bed.

Actual costs of owning one of these are not as bad as you claim. Friend at work here in TX just bought a Crew cab V6 4x2 PreRunner for $26k off the lot. Plenty of similar ones in stock. Sticker was over $29k. About the only option it doesn't have is 4x4. Nobody actually pays over $30k for these. Reason he sold:

Damn. Ninja'd while looking for the clip. All I could find is this low quality one.
