Mid sized sedans still sell quite a few more units than crossovers. That being said there are too many SUVs on the road. Better visibility? Looking further up the road? Sure but at the compromise of other directions. Self driving cars cant come soon enough.

Thats what you get for racing on the street. Keep it on the track people, at least they have fire extinguishers and safety personnel there.

I think my car gets terrible gas mileage for what it is. Rated 32 highway/24 City and I usually get 28mpg mostly highway. I know youre going to say thats not bad, its a 2008 Saturn Astra with a 138 hp 1.8L 4 banger and a 5 speed. It should get damn near 40 mpg. Newer cara are too bloated.

Here’s another thing to consider: When was the last time you saw a demo for a new game? I cant tell you how many times ive bought a game and been let down. I think some of the people may be pirating just to try before buying.

One could argue that people driving 55-60mph in the middle or right lanes are just as dangerous. Or semis hogging all the lanes and allowing no one to pass. Speeding is the only reason the cops will pull you over for in Cincy.

I think it might have more to do with Japanese styling. Have you seen the new Toyotas in person? Yikes.

You meant 16” as in inches right? If not I find the prospect of a the screen plastered down the side of the vehicle intriguing.

My bad guess I confused it with the Delta II platform which is newer. It doesnt drive anything like the Ion or Cobalt. The suspension feels much tighter, totally different gearbox, and it just feels more upscale to me. Not dogging the Cobalt/Ion - they got much better gas mileage.

Well GM no longer makes a sporty compact hatchback or a roadster in the U.S. Sure I could buy a Focus but its not the same.

Yes technically the Astra is a rebadged Opel/Vauxhall but that platform wasnt sold in the U.S. The Buick Verano is based on that platform but it came later.

I dont think the naming scheme is helping their case.

I got mine :D

It should be illegal everywhere. Driving a 2 wheeled vehicle whether it be a motorcycle or bicycle requires a higher level of motor skills to operate.

It almost sounds like she was setup by someone that didnt want her to have the job.

I test drove a Sky Turbo and it was a blast, much quicker than a Miata. My issue was that it would have been my only car and didnt have enough storage space. I went with the Saturn Astra instead, almost as fun... if only they gave us the turbo version.

That and electric cars are not technically great for the enviornment. They still have to produce the electricity which usually means burning coal or oil. Hydrogen fuel doesn have the best returns yet (costs more than gasoline) but it is zero emissions in use and manufacturing.

Well I thought Settlers of Cattan was a fictional game on Big Bang Theory but its on your list. Is Mystic Warlords of Ka’a real too?

I would love to have an Exige S. Pictures do not do this car justice. They should should throw that supercharged V6 in one for extra special edition :D

We have Microsoft partly to thank but not for that reason They put out some garbage hardware that kept failing and locking things down more and more. Games kept coming out with worse and worse performance with no sign of new consoles in sight. I owned several Xbox 360s and a PS3 and thats what pushed me back into PC

You’re kidding right? Modern cars still have EGR valves, spark plug wires, and some form of distributor (granted its probably not the gear driven kind). Carbs can be just as reliable as FI cars if you take care of them. Anyway since this car is so old you could probably get away with removing or upgrading some of
