Also I am, as the kids say, Big Mad, that I know what this means in the first place.

How do we know you’re not cake, Torch? HUH?!

Italian Superstars Series has you covered.

There will be at some point, according to our dealer training schedule.

1st Gear: I was talking with our used car manager last week, and June was our best month for pre-owned EVER. We had one week where we sold 22 cars in 2 days (The whole store usually does 100 cars/month.) Service and Detail depts can’t keep up.

The simulation glitched and now we have cars from GTA V roaming the streets of Europe.

I mean anything in this price bracket looks shit next to the GTI. The Focus ST is almost a front drive muscle car like the MazdaSpeed 3 was. My only real experience with them besides driving them around the lot at work was on a track, and it made total sense there.

I had the blend door fail on my first one about a year after I got it. I’ve somehow avoided all the other common issues I see on forums like overheating, limp mode, trans failures, etc on both of mine even with a decent amount of track use.

If all you care about is raw performance, it’s the perfect tool for the job. You just have to abandon good ergonomics and ride quality to get there. I’d 100% take an R over the RS, too.

A Golf R or a Veloster N is gonna be a way better street car. And if you are a diehard Ford nerd, the Fiesta ST is more fun AND comfortable (yes I have driven both.)

Are you talking about the dual clutch? No Focus has ever had a CVT.

Most people never drove them enough to actually thrash them. We sold 4 over the course of production, and 2 came back as trade-ins within a year. One had under 2000 miles on it.

We’ve had a number of other thefts that people got properly roasted for, but the sales guy didn’t get in trouble for this one.

No. That car was probably gutted before we even opened the next day.

All volvos now come standard with TurboBrickChain technology.

We had someone steal a car off our lot with one of these keys last year. They got a Fusion key from a salesman to look around inside the car, swapped keys when he wasn’t looking, and then came back on a Sunday night and stole the car. They managed to unhook the shift cable on one of our blocker cars, roll it out of…

Needing $200 in tools to fix something worth $50 is what makes it fun!

Better than a Freestyle.

I just ditched Continental to try my luck with panaracer on my Cannondale road bike. Went for a more retro look since my Schwinn is currently serving as wall art, rather than transport. Ye old Traveller will be a homebrew gravel bike eventually.

Some drop bars, panaracers (or WTB, Michelins, whatever,) and basic maintenance, and that’ll be a pretty dope gravel bike for cheap.
