Usually something like that for me too, sometimes I’ll be backing off the brake just as I start turning in, although I have had the back end come around if I somehow unloaded the rear of the cars. My Lebaron would kinda snap out in damp conditions when driven aggressively while the only time my Shadow did it was when…

for 3 grand, you can upgrade yours to get virtually the same performance. Only thing you’d miss out on is the looks and a bit of weight savings.

A friend of a friends wife got her Accord wheels jacked in the driveway of her upper middle class neighborhood, even worse about 4 years ago my cousin got his Escalade wheels jacked from his drive way in his super hard to get into gated and guarded “million dollar and up home” neighborhood......

Soooo fun!

Cue the pointless, unending argument as to whether this lap “counts” or not due to the tire compound, the suspension camber, the ECU tune, the octane rating of the fuel, the type of paint on the car, the air temperature/humidity, what the driver had for breakfast, the number of squirrels in the surrounding area at the…

was that before or after the Vtech kicked in?

Agreed. Convinced my GF to buy a Mk7 GTI and then I tuned it- got the APR stage 1 like you except went with the lower torque. Even then it's got traction issues - Haldex would mean 0-60 going from 5ish to 3.5ish

Or maybe because he put it there then painted over it? It’s not the lack of a grille that people don’t like, it’s that it looks like crap.

I don’t care what anyone says.. I’ve seen ONE particular SS multiple times in my area, and at a quick first glance it was obvious it wasn’t a simple crappy Malibu!

I absolutely LOVED my SHOs (91+94). I bought them in college in 2008 and 2011 respectively. I sold my 91 to make room in the garage for a BMW and my 94 the engine blew when Walmart (sigh, I know I know) put the drain plug halfway back in and I drove it halfway home when it seized up. Not that Walmart ever admitted…

I don’t think the SS is as sneaky as the SHO. It’s got a lot of shiny bits that late model Malibus don’t. And that kind of aggressiveness on bland styling has an “I spent my paycheck in the Pep Boys dress-up aisle so I’d be noticed” vibe.

Are you asking if it’s ugly as hell and always will be?

Those headlights and wheels have certainly not aged well in my opinion. I’m not sure what to make of the grill. But I guess the front bumper is still decent.

I’m wrapped up in the article photo that has the dumb c-word using another snapchat feature to talk about herself being alive and not mentioning anything about causing a crash. “Lucky to be alive” should be replaced by “once I mature a bit i’ll have to live with the haunting fact that the person I hit has permanent…
