    The excuse for not 2 door integra was that there was no 2 door platform to use. Now we see there was a 2 door platform. So it makes me wonder if there was no 2 door Integra specifically to prevent it from killing Prelude sales.

    My best in a 90's compact was 135mph in a Ford Escort ZX2 that had some engine/suspension work. Best in my Mustang is 160, but its electronic limited. The Escort didn’t feel bad at that speed. Just unsafe due to how little it weighed I knew it would crumple like a tin can.

    My 2019 Bullitt was 50k. Now a loaded EcoBoost is 49k, and a GT with the SAME options I have are 60k while making the same power and aren’t even a “limited run” package.

    I remember the SRT-4 guys insisting its NOT a NEON as the car doesn’t say NEON anyplace on it. it just happen to have a NOEN interior and body but it was an SRT-4. lol

    Those were the guys that were cranking the boost and calling it a day. They didn’t have a built engine so they were just fine at stock boost, but going over that by much would start causing issues.

    No one ever remembers the ZX2 S/R, the Mazdaspeed Protege, or the Protege MP3

    UAW has balls. They cant put matching seats in F-150's, put different colored body panels on Broncos or even properly align logos on straight on a 70K Dark Horse. But they want huge pay increases when they put out horrible quality work?

    I’m all for helping American workers but not when they put out quality that makes

    I’d be amazed if the GR Corolla isn’t faster than the 2.0T Supra, and barely behind the 3.0 depending on the track.

    I loved my ‘91, but at 65k the tranny went, at 115k the tranny went. I drove like a total asshole. On my moms 95 sable, the tranny went at 62k, then again at 110k. She drove like a typical old lady.

    It may have been the car that saved Ford, but it also had a transmission from Gen 1-3 that would VERY reliably break every 60-70K miles and was also a huge fault in the same generations Sable and was the source of multiple lawsuits. Giving it a more reliable transmission would have gone a long way to make it an even

    Fake shifts are mostly due to people complaining that “the transmission isnt acting right” and to prevent idiots from calling support or dealers they decide to just add in fake shifts. This is also why Nissan and others have them as well.

    One cop recently got only 90 days for molesting a kid, so... probably don’t get much time even if he does.

    The cop in the video makes 150k a yr and has many cases of excessive force and other issues. The fact he’s even on the force the MAKE these videos is sad.

    And the Z is a 21yr old platform with an 8yr old engine. 

    I’m not being sarcastic when I say if I could get AWD with the 2.0T I’d get an Altima right now.

    I got an Altima in 2014. Coming from a 2003 Mach1 it was slower, but felt like a luxury car in every other way. Was also more reliable than any Ford I’d had.

    I’m familiar with how engines work. I’ve been working on them for 20+ years. My point was they were LAZY/stupid not to, not that they COULDN’T do it.

    The fact everyone else managed to get 400HP from a 3.0T 8yrs ago and Acura is only 350 last year kind of blows that excuse away.

    Not big on EV’s but I to like the look. Shame their other Type-S vehicles couldn’t be nearly as powerful, they face they are only 350HP is very 2015 power spec. I had expected the 3.0TT to be at least 390HP. Ford, GM and Nissan’s 3.0TT have been 400HP since at least 2014. 

    Unless they lost it Ford owned the Skyline name before the “new” GT-R came to the US. It was the speculation for why the GT-R wasn’t called Skyline.
