Way to perpetuate racism, Cecilia. Her darkening her skin, in order to cosplay as a black character, is not racist. As the poster you replied to mentioned, context DOES matter. And you’re right - then we are deciding the context. If it’s in a context that is either meant to be offensive, or can be REASONABLY construed…

Good advertisement, and you’re not very far from me!

That’s a pretty good parallel, actually. You just made me look at the new Supra in a completely different light. It’s got the hips, it’s got essentially the same shape back window, etc.

Have you looked at NA Miata prices lately? More like 5x.

Initial reaction: ANOTHER fantastic game lost to 3D rendered bullshit!

Really? I thought he did a pretty great job, looking both pissed off that she revealed such a large spoiler, and being completely taken aback to learn about what happened.

Not less comfortable than the Golf R, unfortunately, and the Focus RS no longer exists on the new car market. The Civic Type R argument is sound, unless you care about AWD, or paying a reasonable price compared to MSRP.

Better interior, mostly yes. More comfortable, absolutely not.

Another correction - STI base is $36,595. Only $6k more than a BRZ Limited, with 100hp more, and AWD.

The STI doesn’t have many options. Outside of dealer-installed accessories, an STI Limited is about as loaded as it gets, for ~$42k.

Correction - a base S3 is not much nicer to be in. Not looking like a vape bro in his 20s is a valid argument, but the S3 interior is not substantially better than what’s in the STi. And while the Super Sport seats available in the S3 may look better, they are infinitely less comfortable (and offer substantially less…

You couldn’t possibly be more correct, on paper. The STi, by all current and reasonable standards, is absolute shit for a performance car in this day and age.

That’s Abbie. :)

For once, I agree with you.

As someone who has drank the AWD kool-aid, I think this is a terrible idea, and ruins what is already a damn near perfect car.

No, but that’s what the OP asked about.

Agreed, I’ve enjoyed the action. They’ve done a great job at replicating that golden-age comic book style from the manga to the show. That show knows how to generate emotion.

With any luck, it’ll be very passable. I’d love to see a new speed3 with an aggressive setup come from this, but, as others have mentioned... We’re probably never seeing one of those again.

Significantly quicker, yes. WRX territory, not a chance. You’re talking about filling an 80hp deficit here.

More like 2.5RS performance here.
