While I’m sure a GOOD solder joint is better than these, I really really suck at soldering. I never get any better, because I hate doing it. My clumsy fat fingers always end up getting burned. I bet these are a lot better than my crappy solder joints.  I’ve yet to try them, but I definitely should give them a shot…

Maybe the moose test isn’t really that great a test? If a trained driver, knowing exactly what to expect in one of the most nimble new cars in the world has trouble passing it...maybe it’s not a relevant test? 

Complaining about something or another is the reason most people post here.

The price sounds a little high but I could be moved to give on my limits, maybe. It would kind of depend on how the meeting went.

There are 7 stars in the Subaru logo, you just can’t see the seventh due to the vape cloud blocking it.

Pretty sure that if you just use a regular impact driver, you may not be able to apply enough pressure to prevent the bit from coming out of the screw head.  Once you strip it, you’re drilling it out.  This way, the force being applied to the bit pushing in is equal to the rotational force so you won’t strip the head.

I got one at HF a while back. Works great. Rubber mallet, impact driver... job done.

The Buick was the only reasonable suggestion! With that much time on the road, I would value low NVH and good ride quality over sportiness. With that said, Something like a 5-series might be a better bet. Maybe a Mazda 6, rather than the 3.

People always wrongly assume the C30 is a fun to drive hot hatch.

Sometimes all it takes is one little detail to cause someone to walk away from what might otherwise be a reasonable deal. The wheel thing is beyond stupid. They are asking $13K for the car and only want $500 for the wheels, a less than 4% increase. Listing it at $13,500 isn’t going to make a significant difference in…

Being the fourth owner of a WRX STI is like being the fourth owner of a condom.

I feel like all the folks voting CP on this don’t know the market. A clean example is going to fetch closer to $20k. It’s not a screaming deal, but that’s about as cheap as you are going to find a real STI with a clean title that runs, drives, and has no major cosmetic issues. 

Whoops, I didn’t see the bit about the wheels at first.

This looks better than its reputation would lead you to expect.

As a Moderator and someone who’s devoted WAY too much time to oppo I am incredibly saddened. I’ve made some wonderful lifelong virtual and real life friends from oppo. Its taught me alot from forcing me to look into technical subjects, to forcing me to re-examine my believes in people. I’ve learned to be more…

Have you ever seen Roy Wort and Ted Mosby in the same room?

I blame Roy Wort.

I’ve said essentially this in so many obituary threads this past week, but, aside from just reiterating that this is some bullshit, let me also reiterate that Oppo is unique among communities, in the best ways.
