Even funnier with the last line:

I’m amazed they did a coupe after all these years of us being told coupes were dead. But if I order one with the Hurricane six, does that make me a Luddite?

Ugh. This is a spectacularly shitty take.

I know it’s only anecdotal, but the MT82 in my 2014 Mustang GT was fine. Other than feeling a little ‘crunchy’ at like 20-25 degF (surprisingly fine at lower temps) no complaints over 120k miles. Reliable, shifted fine. Didn’t abuse it, but didn’t baby it either.

What is wrong with 0-60 of 12.3 seconds for a minivan designed to haul people in urban areas? The “dustbuster vans” were not underpowered, their styling was great for the time, the build quality could’ve been better - but as far as I remember the fuel efficiency was halfway decent.

But then again, at the time these…

Oooooo. That Accord SI-R. Hnnggg.. 

The best part of that whole sequence, was the driver of the Mustang shifting the Automatic transmission into “Low” mid chase. (~1:51 mark)

This is quite a steaming pile of bullshit you left in the comments. You also probably shouldn’t get your car “facts” from reddit commenters. 

I like it, though I would like it better with the touge edition OZ’s:

The upright liftback proportions give it more of a Lancer Celeste vibe, which makes sense since that was also a Japanese platform drawing inspiration from ‘70s muscle.

Shocking that people aren’t wild about $60k (at 7% interest!) cars with limited, often-broken charging infrastructure and insane repair and maintenance costs.

Except the Mazda those are EVs, which means they will be 2ton+.  And you know Mazda isn’t going to turn that concept into a production car.

What kills me is this would have made way more sense as an Integra. The Prelude was never Civic-based, and Honda could’ve given the world the Integra coupe they actually wanted, making up for the embarrasing DE4 launch.

This will help with the supply of used cars!

And the Sentra SE-R!  All great cars, way ahead of equivalent cars of the time. 

I mean we could start by enforcing the laws we already have, ticket people who turn into an intersection when there’s a pedestrian in the crosswalk. And for that matter ticket people who blatantly run red lights and stop signs, or who drive on the shoulder, or who drive in the center median, or who use the crosswalk…

People who drive dangerously already ignore traffic laws.  Imposing new laws won’t improve safety in the slightest.

100%

Nah, leave it up to local municipalities to make their call. I’ve had countless hours of my life wasted yearly due to having to wait at intersections at red lights where absolutely zero cars passed through the intersection for the entirety of the light cylce as I was waiting for green. I’d add ban the bs left turn…

I regularly drive a Neon ACR that was shipped with roll-up windows, no AC, and no radio. I am in favor of cheap de-contented fun daily drivers.
