This car is about 6 to 8 inches wider than your average car which makes it very easy to handle around the terns.

From some of the responses, apparently a lot of the commenters think sliding through a red light in front of someone is just fine. Maybe the horn is a little over the top, but sliding through a red light is a lot worse.

I went out cycling today. (No engine; a real pedal cycle). I stopped at a red light in a touristy town, behind a Harley Davidson. The Harley made the obligatory loud, uneven, irritating blub-blub-bub noises. Whilst waiting at the red light he revved it from time to time, for some reason that was vitally important to…

Second gen Acura RL. It was dismissed because of its bland styling and driving dynamics that couldn’t match the Germans. And it wasn’t particularly spacious inside for a flagship sedan.

The Kizashi actually sold pretty well up in my neck of the woods.  They were pretty aggressive with their marketing campaign, airing the commercial with the sled dogs on heavy rotation.  I still see quite a few of them on the road, and they’re nice-looking sedans!  

Saab 9-2x Aero aka Saabaru. better looking, more upscale WRX with some STI parts, what’s not to love? One of my favorite cars I ever owned. I miss Saab. It’s a real Saab story. 

I feel like a broken record saying this on so many QOTD posts, but the MR2 Spyder. It didn’t sell well because it was a huge change from the previous generation and didn’t have much available storage. It out performed the Miata for less money. It was a 2,195lbs, mid-engine, rear wheel drive sports car in the low…

Yes you will, deservedly.

is like preferring Coke versus Pepsi.

Right? I tried to price an “Outer Banks” Bronco — which has the nicer interior and comfort options — and it wouldn’t allow the manual. (Sigh). As if anyone who wants a stick couldn’t possibly appreciate style or convenience.

I will just never understand why carmakers think that people who want a manual transmission want a stripped down car.    I want every bell and whistle INCLUDING a manual transmission, which I am happy to pay more for.   

“We can’t wistfully recount old-school sports cars, lament their disappearance amid the onslaught of technology and then complain when successors arrive that are, in a few ways, slightly old”

Yeah, the pending comments don’t always show up anymore. I long for the good old days of about six months ago where clicking on the “this post” link in notifications would load the page in a way that took you straight to your comment. Now it’s often too much of a bother to reply to a reply.

You’re right there. If Nissan would put in a 300 Hp motor and sell for $30K ish, they’d kick Toyobaru twins and the ‘cheap’ Supra out of the market.

We kept seeing the yellow car with the black details. I liked it, but the front end was always slightly weird to me. Not bad by any means, just something that stood out in a way I wasn’t expecting.

A rear hatch, integra style, would have made this my perfect car. 

I mean, rich white folks praising Nazi cars is pretty on brand for the last decade.

I actually think you’re in the silent majority. Unfortunately, we’re also not the customer base. 

I’m in the minority maybe, but I like the styling of it.
