yes, people were buying them as dailies because they are a “top trim” muscle car when in reality they wanted something a little more livable like a fully loaded challenger or even a hellcat

these companies hire the best drivers in the world and on a typical course like laguna seca the best driver and the 50th best driver are separated by fractions of a second by talent

dude millenials ARE living 30 miles outside of the city and they still can’t afford it.  when you go out to a nice restaurant and have a 20 something waitress where do you think she lives?

his choice was to live in san diego, but local governments that act like state-run HOAs are the reason why he is being gouged.  local government’s primary function is basically to keep property values high and is happy to limit housing supply in order to do so.

they finally made an interior fitting of a $50k sports car but they’re putting it in a $100k sports car....

this is how i felt growing up wanting an STI or EVO but when i got out of law school the EVO was dead and the new STI had a 20 year old engine and late-2000s corolla styling

Caddy should have stayed in that niche that the first-gen CTS was carving out - which was a fun, driver-oriented alternative to boring luxury sedans with American flair and identity (i.e. a V8 lmao). they could have been refining it and slowly bringing up quality, interior bits, and building brand cachet but they’ve…

the toyota has a bigger bed lmao

a few months ago i went and picked up a prescription at a drug store near my work.  i didn’t realize that it was the drug store near where my grandparents used to live 10+ years ago.  the pharmacist recognized my unique last name and got to talking and asking me about my grandparents and if they were still around (my…

reminds me of how mitsu was offering a 10 year/100k mile warranty on all of their cars except for the evo, which was explicitly left out.  “we know yall be launching these MFs”

but the car in the movie is doing a wheelie AND a burnout.  it is physically impossible to do both at the same time since spinning the tires means the absence of grip whereas doing a wheelie happens when you have more grip and twist than weight in the front end

they should just quick screwing around and have the configurator offer the options people are going to actually buy for this car

i mean lots of track and autox guys run big sidewalls. i know for the 86 platform the stock wheel is 17x7 with 215/45/17 tires where common performance setups are 18x8 on 225/40/18 or 17x9 with 255/40/17 tires. I bet you would even see bigger sidewalls if it didn’t mess with the gearing and speedo on a street driven…

with the dealer markup its literally Audi S3 money which is crazy considering not only does the Audi have a much nicer interior but also Quattro instead of FWD and the engines are almost identically spec’d.  No stick though (but i hear the DSG is v good)

except the civic has also gone way up market.  people are willing to body kit a car if they bought it for $20k, not so much if it was $40k and has a three stage paint job.  The Type R was also always much more of a finished product out of the box in every past generation - think of the Si as the tuner model with the…

dude we all (rightfully) don’t want to be “that guy” about this but the USWNT has lost the men’s U-15 team.  They train against the U-18 team regularly because it nullifies the athleticism advantage they often have over other countries and they get it pushed in every time.

she looks like a girl you knew in high school who wasn’t even hot but got a modelling shoot because daddy knew the right people

the old white person standby of “this person committed a crime but looks like me or someone i know”

i mean theres lots of compelling aaron rodgers evidence though

Freddy was bi despite being the gayest man of all time
