David, this article is beyond beautiful and I cant thank you enough for all the heart and soul you put into writing this, the many many hours we spent together and the kindness and care you invested. I certainly have made a new friend along the way and beyond grateful our paths crossed. I also want to thank everyone…

You could definitely make sure that no intake manifolds are near exhaust manifolds if you made one “V” a hot-v layout, and the other a cold V”

Hot rodding in general has seen that same push-and-pull between artistic originality and factory originality. During the Pro Street boom of the 1980s, Rod Saboury’s split window Corvette was one of the hobby’s best. But the word going around was that Saboury hacked up a pristine restored Corvette to build it, and that…

Darn it, it’s not available in yellow. I still regret getting rid of my yellow ‘06.

I’m hoping the GMC version looks better, because the Chevy is HIDEOUS!

Unfortunately, this quirkier Cactus is being replaced by an all-new one in early 2018. The basic design is very similar but it’s been toned down a little bit. There are new comfort seats and a new ‘hydraulic’ suspension which is actually a clever rework of how the shocks stop and rebound, rather than what you might…

Good point of clarification. I don’t. I know a few, in fact, who are in my rough economic bracket (lower upper-middle class/upper middle class/who even knows anymore). But they own an older Porsche, not a $175k GT3 RS.  

Diesel vehicles accounted for 25 percent of VW’s sales prior to the Dieselgate revelations.

Yeah, the only other bike I’ve ridden with worse mileage was Honda NM4. That got maybe 70-80 miles per 3 gallon tank.

A cloth interior manual, no option M3/M4/M2 is the best M3/M4/M2

The M never came with Halogens. I bought the 435i and Xenons were standard with the option for LEDs.

You missed one of the best new features. All digital gauge cluster with cool modes and different layouts and tach sweeps for each.

I wish I had a time machine so my Fiesta ST and I could go back and win every race in the world.

They used to have a model in the in the middle (E350/E500/E63), but have not done so since the W211. So maybe Alfa is skipping that step.

That is an impressive gulf. I guess buyers are happy enough with the 350 that if they want more power they’re happy to go all the way to the AMG.

I know the Focus ST is extremely overstyled, but I love the built-in screen. You know how you can ALWAYS tell an aftermarket head unit from a mile away because it isn’t integrated into the design? The Fiesta looks like that to me.

Mine’s still up high on the dash well within my line of sight and the fact that it’s…

I agree. I thing the 2016 and 2017 Focus are better and sharper than before, but it you are into having a lot of fun, the FiST is amazing. 197 HP. But if it was between the Ford and the VW, I would take the Ford... Fun Factor. Both are Amazing
