Its like damn near every modern car I've been in having the upshift/downshift backwards except for Mazdas, bugs the shit out of me in my wife's Kia.

Uh, don’t automotive engineers still have, like, a little understanding of Newtonian physics these days?

Variable Application of Performance Enhancements

An STI engine swap would, of course, be neat but I’m just happy with the blue lighting if I’m honest.

If you’re in the US, NBCSN. Highlights each night. As they say, check your listings for times (Tonight and tomorrow 6 PM Eastern, various times through the 17th). On the last day, (Friday the 17th) it looks like they’re running a marathon of Stages 3-the end starting at 1 PM Eastern.

Color shift paint is goooder. 

Drove my ratty 911SC to Luft 6, the first trip out of town with it for me. I wasn’t in the show, but I’d never been before and couldn’t miss it.
