I, embarassingly, asked an acquintance if his Prelude was a V6. Then swore up and down I had seen them for sale before. Egg, meet face.

But...Porsche sells V6s?

With legally mandated winter tires :-)

Think of it this way: All cars have four tires (winter ones, for you) and four brakes. So your ability to brake and your grip around a curve would be the same as anything else. You are more likely to get stuck and you will accelerate more slowly, but with a limited slip differential and traction control, it won't be…

Oh, he admits it does everything very well. He says that he SHOULD like it in that film. But after he drove one for a whole trip? He wanted the FWD Fiat.

He's still not a huge Miata fan. I remember him describing the one he had in the Middle East as 'soulless'.

Did you look at the blog? And would you be okay with a cop blocking a regular lane to fill a report?

Well, I don't know that we can blame famines in Africa on the NYPD. Wow, there's a sentence I didn't think I'd ever type.

Ah, you obviously didn't see the actual photos. One of them is the precint's dumpster. Or meter maids. Not a single vehicle had lights going. Many are labelled 'repeat offenders'. These aren't responding officers.

Not that this isn't an issue, and it isn't possible to correct more than one thing at a time, but isn't the institutionalized profiling by the NYPD a bigger problem?

Jeep Wranglers seem to manage just fine with US regulations. So do Mercedes G class trucks. But it takes a lot of investment, and LandRover isn't too flush with cash.

That would be an interesting direction to take, but I don't see it happening, right or wrong. Governments are willing to allow people to endanger themselves on small scales (ultralights, motorcycles, etc) but don't like to put up with it on large scales (cars, commerical air traffic, most countries rules on guns,…

Something about that costing hundreds of millions of dollars. Or something.

And the US won't allow them to be sold...because they won't spend the money to modernize them enough to meet regulations in the US.

Gasp! Geoff has finally joined the flock! Welcome dear brother. And yes, Millie the Dog loves the Wrangler. Doesn't seem to even bother with the head-out-the-window; maybe being in a Wrangler is outdoors enough :-)

Wow, that's genius! Friggin Fits. I always said 'if I was a practical man, that's the only car I would look at'....

As I said, it's for people who want some fun while driving but have no interest in performance. The experience of driving a tent is exactly what a lot of people love about Wranglers, after a lifetime of convential vehicles.

It smells faintly of Dodge Caliber, I think.

You've got to kinda cross your eyes to see it.

Both are just fine AND things I don't really think about, honestly. Welcome to Jalopnik!
