Whatever you say. If you want to worship magic market fairies more power to you. Meanwhile, in the real world, we taxpayers will generously continue to pay to scrape your helmet-less head off the pavement.

Yeah, sure, whatever. Everyone is responsible for their own expenses that can run into the millions. Do you even think for a second about what you’re saying? You really expect the average wage-earner at around $45,000 per year, with kids and a mortgage, to have saved — from the first day they are out of the care of…

It’s my business when your stupidity raises both my taxes and my insurance rates. Unless you’re independently rich, someone else is paying for your days in the ER or to scrape your sorry corpse off the road. Sometimes that’s the government, sometimes it’s an insurance company. Either way everyone’s paying for it.

Those stretched tires ruin the whole thing. So ugly.

Can has Mazda6 with engine?

Handle consistent with posts.

I supervised valets for a while. Most of them were like this. The responsible ones were the exception. Pay shit, get shit people.

There is always public parking within reasonable walking distance. You may just not know where it is.

Saw it fly past my office window in downtown Seattle, accompanied by a chase plane. It was a bit farther out over the Sound than most aircraft on approach to BFI. Trail of vintage Pratt smoke from the No. 2 engine.

I love my front-drive, longitudinal, front-mid-engine ‘95 Acura Legend.

Nope.

That JDM front end just looks slick. Far better IMO than the pop-ups.

Hondas of this vintage are just excellent all around. So excellent that two months ago I picked up a ‘95 Legend for $2700 that looks to be in similar condition to this car (despite 185k miles). The two things you notice first on sitting in the driver’s seat? The lowness and the excellent visibility.

If and when they become easily available, they’ll look just as tasteful as blue dashboard trim or washer nozzles. Yuck.

I owned a Honda and then a GM product when I lived in rat heaven (that is, Washington, DC). The Honda (a 2006 Civic) was left alone. The Pontiac G8 suffered a number of rat-related indignities, including damage to some wiring behind the front bumper, holes in the hood insulation, and a permanent rat turd smell that…

You’re smoking something. I hope it’s enjoyable. Every tire is a compromise.

These tires give up a considerable amount of performance in the winter and some performance in the summer.

Enough people die from hitting their heads on the street/sidewalk/curb after getting punched that anyone should know it’s a risk. Seriously, it’s a routine thing. Don’t want to be charged with homicide? Don’t punch people on the street except in self-defense.

That’s way bigger than the stock size... those are SN95 wheels.
