It’s actually a whole lot more than just brakes and a body kit, but because of the naysayers, Subaru North America left the STI badges off the USDM tS anyway.

My guess is Subaru north America was afraid of keyboard warriors who would never even be able to buy the car complaining that it wasn’t a true successor to the 22B for (insert some stupid reasoning.) This is the exact same reason that the USDM BRZ tS is the only BRZ tS that isn’t sold with all its proper STI badging.…

Haha, dorks.

Oh man, crazy taxi stories are always fun.

Every time I see a Taycan in person, I always think it’s a Panamera at first. The proportions are very similar, except a bit lower and wider looking. It’s like how your mind’s eye sees a Panamera and autocorrects its proportions. It’s a good looking car in person.

I’ve driven a couple 86's in Japan with the paddle-shifted automatic, and they are a lot of fun. Even though I have a manual BRZ tS, I wouldn’t kick an auto 86 out of my garage. The throttle blip on downshift is pretty addicting.

Figuring out ways to describe your design language is something that is taught and encouraged in most automotive design schools. What no one mentions is much of it is literally made up on the spot, so something like “The ossified armor-born down-road graphic brings forth a synergetic expression of protectively secure…

I’m guessing Los Angeles too. Even the expensive apartments here look that bad. They have private garages, so they are not cheap apartments.

I’ve had 3, I concur.

I’d propose a vehicle inspection to make sure the cars are in good repair and capable of those speeds. Then if they pass, give them a special sticker like we’ve had for clean air vehicles to use the car pool lanes.

The Allroad has power lumbar in the Warm weather package because as an added bonus, the ventilated seats are the power lumbar-equipped Sport-seats rather than the standard ones. When I get my Allroad, it’s getting that package just for the sports seats (as well as the having the body-colored cladding and Audi…

“I’m fairly sure I already know the answer my question, but I’m going to ask a Toyota rep anyway to see if we’re getting the Toyota 86 British Green Limited.”

Yep, my BRZ has it. It’s pretty great. It makes a noticeable difference despite the size of the cabin.

Many men I know would also be fine having Valentine’s day without having to be included in it.

Stay naturally aspirated, stay RWD with a real LSD, and be able to carry a spare set of wheels/tires for the track, and you’re welcome to join my garage.

So what you’re saying is...
