Yeah, absolutely - but you won’t be able to touch a new STI for the next year, which sucks. 

The problem isn’t that they offer a CVT - the problem is that the best version is CVT-only. You cannot get Recaro seats with a manual transmission. I’m sure they’ll change that, but that’s an egregious decision.

Still a manual, except in the top trim, which makes no sense. Want the Recaro seats AND a manual? Too bad, buddy, because the ‘WRX GT’ is CVT-only. You obviously only want a manual because you’re too poor to afford the GOOD trim. Right?

It’s like the M3, in that regard. Everyone always hates the new one, and wishes it was more like the last one... unless it shares commonality with the last one, in which case they should definitely have changed that, and they’re clearly no longer capable of innovation!

Maybe you missed how everyone bum-rushed all of the stores, and how supplies of toilet paper, paper towels, hand sanitizer, masks, and - oh yeah, food - were almost completely sold out pretty much everywhere for months after the pandemic hit.

Wow, that was some serious clickbait, Collin.

Would it actually be absurd for it to stand out a bit?

I completely disagree with you on the Mach E branding. First, they aren’t that expensive. Second, Ford has a number of vehicles in their lineup that cost more - such as every truck in the higher trim levels. I can promise you that more people dismissed the Mach E because of the Mustang branding than were drawn in by…

Definitely a fair point.

So it’s ok that this is well over a foot longer than the Integra, with twice as many doors, and a bulbous liftgate, but it’s not ok to forgive the foot longer and 7 inch height gap to make a sportier ZDX?

The new Integra may end up being fantastic, but let’s be honest - this car being called an Integra is a bit like calling the Mach E a Mustang. Sure, they can call cars whatever they want, but the ‘Mustang’ name being associated with the Mach E is to its detriment. Same with the Eclipse Sportcross.

For the record, the quickest stock-block A90 Supra, as of this weekend, is in the EIGHTS.

Honestly, the news was my favorite segment of nearly every episode. Just so much genuine laughter and banter.

Yeah, that’s the shit I miss. Stupid Clarkson screwing things up.

“A bed and tailgate from a Colorado pickup were added...”

More importantly, if everything tanked and you were left without a job, you could probably make your mortgage payment, gas, and groceries with a job at Walmart. That’s the way to live! I’ll get there again one day.

What? You know you can bring your own financing, and the dealership still does all of the other stuff, right? When I’m buying a car, I walk in with a check from my credit union. Saves me time in the finance office, gives me a better rate, and they still do literally everything else they would have otherwise done.

Yeah. The MR2 is an absolutely gorgeous car, I can’t imagine thinking that this looks better. Insanity!

Yeah, going to need you to drive this, please.

So why not a used STI, then?
