But driving a F150 around is not fun now and not fun back in 2003. In fact I would say 95% of commute driving is not fun, even in a ‘fun car’.

In spite of people decrying inflation, I think most of us are still making a similar wage to what we were in 2003, so inflation is kind of irrelevant in this instance. Point is, I would’ve lost $9.25 per 100 miles in an F150 for 2003. I’d lose $13.80 for the F150 doing 100 miles today. Add in that most people suddenly…

Wouldn’t it be more accurate to factor in average wages? They have not risen at the same rate as inflation.

And of course, we’re driving more trucks / SUV’s than ever, and with the vehicle fleet larger than ever, we are becoming an ever-larger oil consumer. Yes, we’re producing oil in the USA and Canada, but (earthquakes and polluted water from the fracking that makes that possible removed from consideration), oil is still…

If only Harley had a sub-brand that would be interesting to the youths...Maybe one that sells sport bikes, and stuff that isn’t just wannabe choppers for the middle manager who needs something loud enough to make him feel better about his ED, but whose wife won’t let him spend enough money to buy a Vette, or build a…

It’s hard to separate the company from it’s base for me. All I can think of when I hear Harley is the modded exhaust, 120 db pieces of shit that the owners of insist on cruising main drags on at 3mph revving them as they sit in traffic. They can all suck a bag of dicks.

It kinda just seems like they don’t care... This has been the obvious solution for them for what, like 10 years?

Why is everyone putting this on the front of their cars?

(R&D + tooling + production)/volume

It’s actually a really good deal. For about $3500 over a BRZ Performance Package, you’re getting a bunch of STI parts that would end up costing about $9k if you added them on their own, not to mention a unique interior. The adjustable dry carbon wing alone is $3800. If you were planning on even adding just the lower…

No it wouldn’t. Mine stickered for 31k. The cost of R&D, parts and tooling would push this low production vehicle close to 40k. Everyone always thinks of the price of the parts, but never all the other things that go along with designing and releasing a car. The Impreza is a high volume seller worldwide so the costs…

At $45k almost none of you on this site clamoring for a turbocharged one of these would buy one brand new. You get what you pay for, and that’s a specialized, LIGHT, low-production coupe for what most can buy for under 30k.

I own one. Can confirm, it’s an excellent car.

The people who complain about the power should just keep walking by and go get a Hemi Challenger. If you’re someone who “gets it,” you’ll really enjoy a FRZ86

One can like Bob Dylan without pretending he’s a good singer.

Feels like they’re setting themselves up for getting killed in the next recession if they don’t at least maintain the ability to quickly respond and bring them back into the market.
