Agreed. The album is a great listen all the way thru. I still bring the CD with me on road trips in older cars that I can't just plug my phone into. It's a great road trip album.

Or just buy a Frontier or Tacoma in that exact specification and be happy.

Keep in mind that you get an independent rear suspension with the 1.8T and a beam axle with the TDI.

At least it's not any quicker from 0-60 than an S3 or a Golf R.

2012 GTI - 30k miles - Zero problems.

Sounds like a Honda. Looks like it would make one hell of an autocross car.

So, what you are saying is an American company is finally building the compact, 4WD, 4 cylinder, turbo-diesel pickup we have been begging Toyota and Nissan to import for the better part of 20 years now...aaaaaaaaaaaaaand they are NOT going to sell it to the general public.

Havent' heard anything by David Byrne in years. Never heard of the other guy. Never heard the song before. I liked it. Kinda reminds me of a more mature Flaming Lips but that makes sense since they must have been influenced by Talking Heads.

I've got to believe that this is due to most of the people who want a GTI waiting until the Performance Package cars become readily available enough that they don't have to order one and pay a premium for it. My friend in Texas finally purchased his just this past weekend.

If you can live without a manual than the XT is probably your best bet. My wife an I both really wanted a manual and since Subaru won't put one in the XT we went with the base model and no car payment instead. The power of the 2.5i is adequate with the manual. I'm sure it would be fine with the CVT keeping it in…

Base 2014 Forester 2.5i with 6 speed manual for around 20 grand.

What car wouldn't I drive if I were the last man on earth?

Sounds fishy to me. I like Ambrose, and I realize the V8 Supercars have changed significantly since he last drove them, but isn't seat time still the best way to get up to speed in any race car? Except for maybe F1 where they have super limited testing and ultra-realistic simulators. I would think that the best…

There are so many errors in that series I make a game out of finding them.

Not nearly as impressive as how they were recycled.

We never got the All Trac/GT4 of that generation (ST205) here in the US of A.

The Caymans in World Challenge GTS are very different from the ones in Continental Challenge ST.

I was in 4th gear before a girl asked me if the S2000 was a manual or automatic.

They look like they are hanging too high to me. If they were hanging lower it would improve the center of gravity. Despite that, it still may be the best application of BALLast I've ever seen in a race car.
