It’s also the opinion of the asker. Zach said either auto or manual is fine.

I’d try to find a Lexus IS-F. High revving NA V8 goodness.

Don’t worry, that’s coming next. I’m going to be working this beat (lol) further and deeper.

That is a rabbit hole I’m still following down for a future update. Thus far the finances don’t show anything too surprising aside from a million dollars to Microsoft for cloud services, and the fact that the CEO of AAMVA has a cushy $400k/yr job. Donors appear to be anonymous, for now.

I was hoping Mercedes would dive deeper and find out this exact question, who’s behind it and why? Someone should follow the money.

I can’t comment on the situation at large, other than it sucks. But wanted to say, that’s some great investigative journalism. 👍

If they’re citing safety concerns as the reasoning behind banning these vehicles then they better start revoking all antique vehicle registrations on the same grounds. Pretty soon we’ll only be able to drive vehicles that are no more than 10 or 15 years old. Do these morons not realize that FMVSS change year to year…

When I used to work at restaurants that served wine, I literally just made up the tasting notes. No one ever called me on it.

You sure I’m the one being oversensitive here boss?

Like I told the other douche in this comment section.  Get fucked.

NGL, that’s almost enough to sell me on it.

Elon is probably the top reason I chose not to buy a Tesla.  He’s such a fucking adolescent prick.

Yes, it is 3K more, includes the Civic Touring options and is called the Integra.

It sounds like this will be a differentiating feature for the Integra.

Nailed it 100%! The system works because we assume that all parties play the game the same. The army of government employees stuck chasing you around for more modest sums we kind of write off because we assume the big boys will also have to pay.

super villain acts like a super villain, film at 11.

Civic Si HATCH.

Fixed.

Elon Musk is just the tech bro version of Donald Trump at this point.

This is the era of the manchild (Trump, Musk etc.) No matter how much they have, deep down they're just insecure babies that other, less successful, manchildren worship.

I like what Elon has done for advancing electric vehicles and lowering the cost of launching things into space. Even if he didn’t personally engineer these things, he challenged the companies to do better - and they have.
