You know what works? Installing a limited slip diff. Winter tires help, but you really need that diff.

Thankfully, a safer replacement is on its way.

Dunno about the TT or RS5, but Car and Driver sounded distinctly scared of the RS7 and the M6 Gran Coupe in their Lightning Lap write-up. I think their line was 'way too much power for the chassis".

I agree completely...where hotels are available and consistent. They aren't always. Plus, no repacking here, you get a kitchen, and man that's a lot of money. I don't know. Build your own for 30k is probably the right answer.

Is there anyone on this site that actually remembers the Mini pre-rallying? I'm sure the writer isn't that old, but I suspect no one else here is either.

It was the turbocharged engine, LSD and the no-lift shift programming that blew everyone away, all in a base-Cobalt disguise.

Sometimes I think that feeling is a lot of 'grass is greener' wishfullness. Don't get me wrong, there are some special models that painful to see available elsewhere, but the US gets a lot of amazing vehicles at dirt cheap prices, and I think a lot of vehicles that aren't offered here are done so because they'd be

Instead, the new Braves stadium gets to cost Cobb County what, 600 million? Not really fair to conflate municipal vs state politics though.

There are no seats better than these seats.

I'm guessing a Chrysler, pre 1955 model. Regardless, head to Hemmings and start browsing 1950s cars to your heart's content. I think 1950-1955 is the era you're looking for :-)

Yeah, when I was there at a resort, they definitely had some modern European cars around-I don't think I even saw any of the old pre-revolution cars around.

Wow, that's what they are trying to get at? Gonna need more than a 'Stop Jerking It' sign.

Which I have to wonder, as someone who drives in a place with similar, is this really a problem? Are people just randomly jerking their steering wheels? I really don't get what they were even trying to discourage.

My vote-a stick shift Porsche. Specifically, a Cayenne GTS, the car that never should have had a stick.

Canada puts outdoor skating rinks on their currency. Better relieve this guy of those ugly bills too. God, my parents have multiple paintings depicted homemade skating rinks-its a whole art genre in the north!

You know that often the credit card you book flights with will carry trip interruption service, right? Try contacting them.

The backwards way they implemented the AWD is what slays me. The designers must have been goddamn crazy

2004 Jaguar XJR. Just added a limited slip diff this year, until then it was open rear diff (all of them are unless it has been modified), rear wheel drive, with 400 ish horsepower. Always, always have used winter tires-Nokian Hakkapelita lately. I have a ski rack, but have been stranded by 1 ft2 of ice under a back

Nope, that's in New York City. Or in Hong Kong. Or in St John's, Newfoundland. Or as sections of Cambridge and Oxford. See why the Canadians stuck to Queen's University?

And we do that better than University of Toronto too :-)
