So, it would be activated in situations like this: you're driving along, at a reasonable speed, when some jackass comes barreling up behind you, at about 10 MPH more than your speed. The PASL would activate when it saw the car approaching your car's 'safe zone' to let the driver behind you know, hey, slow down,…

I'm not disagreeing with you, but in my opinion the risk can be managed. Know your dealership, know the company that makes the part, know that they do their R&D, don't buy knock-offs, and you shouldn't have a problem. Granted, not everyone shares my views on that, and it's all too easy for me to just say these things…

Too big for my needs right now. My wife already has a Rabbit and I prefer nimbleness over power. But you're right, it's always good to have options. Either way, I don't leave a car stock and you don't have to either. Look into the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. "Under the Magnuson-Moss Act, a dealer must prove, not just…

My experience with Volkswagen has been hit and miss. If you keep your eye on it and know the car and get one of the "hits" rather than a "miss" it can be a good ownership experience. I don't own a GTI but my wife has the MkV Rabbit. It goes through CV boots and rear brake pads like nothing I've ever owned (factory…

There's a certain something when you're rolled up on by five police cruisers while you're sitting half naked in your car.

I've seen a Caterham on the street here in Florida, so not impossible.

Those stakes are the only thing that bugs me a little about the Mk7. Well, that and the non-directional wheels.

That one actually made me laugh. Of course it was therefore short lived. It's hard to include parental figures into commercials without it turning lame but when it makes me ask "what did I just watch?" I call it a success.

Their modifications are significant enough that they're considered their own manufacturer, so a RUF is a RUF. I'm not sure that was always the case but that's how the newest ones work.

10.) Ram 2500 Cummins

I see what you mean. They drilled lots of holes in it and replaced some panels versus not using the steel to begin with. Still, it was a good excuse for me to share some pictures.

It makes sense. Here in the states, it would probably be better to just drop the Sentra from the name and make the SE-R it's own model as they did with the GTR.

aaaaaaaaand they're sold out. Not really, but that's how these things typically go, isn't it? Those lightweights are gorgeous. I like the E-Type with the roof more than without, myself. I got to see one a few years ago at Auto Collections in Las Vegas. I'm not sure what the difference is, but this one was labeled as…

Right, but when Porsche says to replace them every 4 years, you'd think they'd do that to all of them. I mean 9 is more than twice that.

That's a shame. I think I remember reading last year in Evo about a new tire that had been released for the Carrera GT. Supposedly it improves the predictability of the handling quite a bit from what I remember.

Kraftwerks can probably take you to 350 and it won't be heavy, AWD, and unnecessarily complex to work on. So, you win.

It's hard to know who they're considering building these for. They made a great S2000 before, killed it off presumably due to the recession, and now that car guys have been champing at the bit for a few years, they decide to come out with a new one, except it's radically different, much more complex, and much more…

Because they still think that young people will be drawn to a younger brand.

Exactly!

The top seems really complicated but it at least looked good. I wonder if they used the same supposedly terrible transmission.
