Even if it is vinyl-wrapped, the snow shovel over the finish made me cringe.

Not in a DeLorean. You can't even do other stuff... The roof is so low my head touches and the armrest and center tunnel are almost against your legs.

I sold my 2000 2.5 RS coupe with manual and leather for a 2011 Miata. It really is the answer. And the comment about head gaskets is correct.

Yeah, my last car was a 2000 Impreza 2.5 RS that I used to love but it needed quite a bit of work at 105,000 miles. I had some good times in that car and it was beautiful but the understeer was a mood killer. I got way more than I anticipated on trade for a new Miata so that happened. The BRZ almost made me regret my…

Thank you, I am so tired of people citing this as an example of a frivolous lawsuit without reading the facts. She was found partially at fault and the entire lawsuit was actually quite reasonable.

After seeing many Subarus burn through clutches, synchros and head gaskets, I'm not hoping for anything stellar.

I was thrilled with the power, but my primary car is a Miata. I think any more torque would make the 458 a beast to drive. As it was the handling was unbelievably precise and responsive and it felt like the gearing was perfect. I'll never forget the sound of that exhaust, it just begged to be taken to redline.

You are right, the RE050A is a decent tire that never let me down, I meant the tires are the one place I think I could see some real improvement in the car. Enkei RPF01s wrapped in Pilot Super Sports is my goal unless there is a better lightweight option.

I had a 2000 2.5RS coupe in silver for years. That was the best looking body style of Impreza.

I also have a 2011 GT with retractable hard top and have a much different impression. The few times I have been able to really push it on the track I found it to be incredibly rewarding. I found the understeer to be mild and at moderate speeds can be balanced with the throttle or opening up the wheel.

I regularly see a Miata guy around here with a huge German Shepherd happily sitting in the passenger seat with his nose in the air and ears flapping.

I really think the first gen Miata has aged well. That is a classic, my friend. Never sell it.

Come on, it wasn't a bad engine. Many European makes and models were powered by it for years.

I've seen a few that look pretty good painted, but the bare stainless steel is one of the best features of that car.

It was a Peugeot, Renault and Volvo designed engine.

Nah, that's just how you make the most of the heated seats.

Exactly, I'm amazed how it just absorbs the impact and continues on without so much as a wiggle.

I love the Dragon, but the only thing I've driven on it was a rental Camry. As numb as that car was, I still had a blast pushing it harder and harder while the crappy all-seasons squealed out for me to slow down.

It has grown on me. If you are comparing it to the slim waist and sexy hips of the 911, it doesn't look as good but the Panamera on its own has some beautiful details.

All I take from that comparison is that I can't use the damn thing when my hands are wet.
