True story. I’ve never met a famous person except this ONE TIME in 2002 when I was at the Rock N Roll McDonald’s after a very late night at Excalibur nearby...R. Kelly was there with a small entourage coming in for 4th meal. He was much shorter than I expected.

Dude probably has a superstition that requires him to go before and after each game, wearing the same clothes and seeing the same girl.  Ugh.

Just do like I did and tell them they’re not allowed to use them until they’re 18.  Been working for me and my kids are 12 and 9.

I think it can be easier than this.

Just Do This

NP all day.  I personally would be looking for a Sedan or Coupe, but this could be a lot of fun.  And yes, these cars have known issues, but are relatively easy to keep on the road as long as you know what to expect.

Yes. I have a colleague that recently added a TM3 to his fleet and frankly, after a drive, I wasn’t that amazed. Sure, it’s nicer in some ways than my 6 year old Volt with 70k on the clock. And acceleration is better. But normal driving and highway cruising? It’s exactly the same. In fact, I feel it has a bit more…

Thoughts on Volt?  I paid $17k for my 2013 in 2015 (off lease) and have been averaging 80 mpg over the last 35k miles of ownership.  I think smart hybrid tech is really the sweet spot here....  I’m in Illinois.

I’ve had people actually comment and say “Wow - a column shifter!  I haven’t seen those in AAAAAYYYYYGES”

Dude you’re so right. It’s so easy and intuitive. It’s literally inches from your hand. Designers are wrong about this and so is the buying public.

If people didn’t just turn their noses up at a column shifter, this wouldn’t matter. My 2012 Suburban has a column shifter and plenty of space for things in the console area. But buyers think this looks “old” so they try to do a console shift instead and now we have this buttony hot garbage.

Also, why can’t Toyota figure out how to proportion wheels/tires to the rest of the car?  Literally everything they design is WRONG.

NO ONE would buy this because it’s fucking ugly as hell.

$3K in the USA?

Cool cars like this always make me sad.  I mean, it’s cool that it exists now, but it should’ve been hooned years ago.

I really want someone to make him a sticker that covers the 2002 with 2019, just so it looks right.  And then again in 2020 and beyond!

If I can’t go 200, I don’t fucking want it.

These are also facts.  But when your car looks like that, you can’t keep your insufferability from showing.

Ha!  So true.  But still.  You know they are going to preach endlessly about the virtues of their homebrew solutions without mentioning that it causes them to hold up traffic on a daily basis while they drive 50 in a 65 zone and refuse to use more than 25% throttle to go uphill.

Person probably gets 100 mpg.  And is insufferable.
