I’ve owned my 360 for 6 years. It took me a long time to become comfortable with it but now I can’t imagine parting with it. I don’t really drive it all that much but that’s more about the limitations of a low, loud, 2 seat car than worry. I drive it to work, Lowes, whatever. As long as I know I can park it…

“I had a C5 z06 because it was so cheap I didn’t care what happened to it. I took it to a race track and put it into the wall, but I didn’t care, because it wasn’t that big of an “expense for me”.”
Nicely said. This applies to me, as well, just much less $. I have a 01 Mustang, and what stops me from getting something much more $ (say used 911 or Vette) is the point you make about “don’t care”. I take the Mustang to the track, I drive hard on the street, and it’s cheap as heck to maintain. I can drive at…
I have to agree. It seems like no matter what the car is there is at least one example of it that runs some ridiculous amount of miles with no apparent problems and sometimes no regard from the owner. All I am seeing is pickup with lots of highway miles and correct maintenance performs exactly how you would expect…
Sorry, but if you’re heavy braking on ice, you’re doing it wrong. Plus, you shouldn’t be driving any faster than 30 MPH with chains on. Lastly, studs aren’t useful on deep snow or snow-covered offroad conditions. Chains are far superior as they grip what’s below the surface. Studs are great for a specific kind of…
In terms of traction, I think chains are the best. They’re the only thing that actually pound into the ice, breaking and gouging it for traction.
Studs are great if you live somewhere where snow is always on the road for the season, but not worth it if you’re ever driving on pavement. Plus they’re illegal in many states because of the damage they do to bare roads.
Same here. Surprised at how well the Hyundai sensors work for lane keep and radar cruise. One exception is the forward collision warning (guessing this uses the same sensors for the cruise) which probably goes off for no reason (except ghosts?) at least once every ~200 miles.
Studable(really, studded) tires are better than winter tires if you’re driving on a lot of ice. Probably not much of an upgrade if you’re on fresh/wet snow and pavement.
Basically it depends on your driving conditions and region.
Winter snow tires are probably going to be just fine for anything you need to do around town. If you live in the mountains or somewhere rural that sees a lot of snow studded tires would come in handy, particularly in icy conditions. Carrying chains for emergencies wouldn’t be a bad idea. Chains aren’t going to make as…
I don’t think we saw the same video.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
You weren’t kidding, it’s nearly impossible to find dash/interior shots of this car. I spent like 30 minutes looking.
Everyone has their own experiences. Before that Malibu, I had a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am that I drove for two years and 30,000 miles with no real issues. And it’s still running around town today with over 200,000 miles on it.
Had to be That Guy™.
Leave it to a car salesman to use the letter of the law to screw someone.
Clearly you don’t work for the government. Where everything is done by hand, on paper, in 2016. Also you have to print several copies of all important paperwork because they will lose the first few you turn in.
In 2009, screenwriter Charlie Kaufman spoke to a reporter about the excessive expectations that some people draw…
