Last Tuesday I was parked on 95 in the Philadelphia Area for about 4 hours. Fortunately, I have Sprint(unlimited data), a phone charger, and a bluetooth equipped stereo, so I shut the car off, put the phone on my instrument cluster, and watched the better part of Series 12 Top Gear UK.

My friend had a first gen 2001 Kia Sportage. That thing is amazing, and I highly doubt the new ones can be as good. This thing was light, fun to drive, had 5 speed manual with 4WD high and low, and full skid plating underneath. We sank it, got it airborne multiple times, put an outward facing dent in the roof from one…
Of all the pointless LED running lights that all the cars have these days, these are the only ones that I think are actually pretty cool. I wouldn't mind seeing these ride up in my rearview mirror.
Don't know why your whole reply is in Title Text, but it reminds me of this:
Get the snow tires for sure. For comparison, my friend's 92 Acura Integra (FWD) with Blizzaks rode like it was on rails yesterday(when the roads had an inch of packed snow turning to ice). In contrast, I could barely keep up with him in my Subaru with all-seasons, and I was sliding everywhere in the process.
My 99 CR-V had this. It was actually really good. Full time FWD and part time AWD. If it was icy or very wet out, I could punch the gas from a stop light, the front wheels let out the smallest chirp, and you could feel the back wheels engage and start chugging you along. Same thing when off-roading with it. I'd move…
everything is nice except the price...
I wasn't saying the goal was to make it as small as possible, I was only comparing the fact that size does not always equate to safety. If Mini could design a cooper that had a similar type safety cell as the smart has and have a passenger zone that won't crumple around the passengers, they could easily have a safer,…
Mini would just need to work on strengthening their passenger space. If Smart can make a car that's 6 inches narrower and 40 inches shorter than the 2013 Cooper S, and still pass safety regulations in the US, there's no reason Mini can't produce something smaller than what they have now(even if they can't go back to…
Man...
I really hope they go in the opposite direction they've been going in terms of size. Especially since they are paying homage to Alec Issigonis by releasing it on his birthday.
This right here. Say you have a budget of 7000. Any WRX is right out. The baseline 2.5TS is usually cheaper.
The Subaru Impreza 2.5RS. When I was looking for a Subaru, these were nearly impossible to find under $5000, even with high mileage. The only exceptions were those that were very distastefully riced. For comparison, the 02(newer) impreza wagon I got(same engine) was nearly $2000 cheaper than the older 2.5RS and it had…

I have to agree with you. its because of people parking way too close to the edge of the steps. Thats why when I go, not only do I not act like a douche, I also park to the side of the steps where there's actual parking spots and no risk of rolling down.
Hahaha. I live about a mile from the art museum. The camera actually pans over my apartment building at the end of the video. Some subaru guys meet up on tuesday nights. This isn't the first time this happened. Some douche did the same thing in his new Audi not too long ago. It is extremely humiliating because once…
And it's the sick and twisted kind of torture where I'm brainwashed to stay here. You tell me that I'm free to leave whenever I want. But I don't. I can't. I must live with this torture, because I don't know any other way.
Come on... I've been looking to get out to a RallyX event for a while now... You have to tease me...
