Might I remind you that the current poll leader for GOP presidential nominee is Donald Trump? I think leadership and pride were discarded long ago.

Doug, the front of some years of WRX/STI’s had the same issue with the japanese license plate spacing. They sell adapters that relocate the holes so no drilling is required, might be worthwhile for you to check out.

Depends on where you live. Massachusetts is technically a ‘may issue’ state, but it’s actually more complicated than that. In Mass, licensing effectively varies by town, depending on the viewpoint of those in charge (the police chief, I believe). Some towns (like mine) are effectively ‘shall issue’ as long as your…

Any issues with bubbling on either interior door panel? When I sold my 95 VR-4, the vinyl top layer on the door armrest had full on seperated from the foam underlayer. It was an issue to which I couldn’t find a good solution.

I came here to post this, you beat me to it. Good call.

Just out of curiosity, how many additional F-22’s could we have purchased with the money we’re currently spending (and are anticipated to spend) on the F-35 program? I feel like the answer is “a lot”.

I feel like you’re projecting your opinions onto the Japanese. As far as I know, the vast majority of the country supports the USFJ’s ongoing presence there.

Why is the onus on the South to constantly roll over and play dead to the North’s provocations? The North gets a way with murder, and I mean that literally, but if the South reacts with something relatively harmless like propaganda broadcasts, suddenly they’re the instigator? I call BS.

Weren’t you the one that was deploring its candidacy in the previous article?

In your opinion, how much is tire choice a factor in the Miata’s lopsided win in C&D’s Head2Head comparison? The Miata comes with High Performance Summer tires, while the BRZ comes with Grand Touring Summer tires (colloquially known as Prius tires). Even Randy Pobst acknowledged the effect of the tire difference in…

I’m not sure whether it was because the person driving is crazy, or it was just my first experience on anything motorized with less than 4 wheels, but my first and only ride in one of those was terrifying.

Not early in the morning in a residential neighborhood, it isn’t. It’s obnoxious, especially since the guy lets it idle for an extended period of time.

Any chance the S-97 Raider ends up being a potential replacement for these?

Who cares?

I’m an engineer AND a realist. When I say you don’t know what you’re talking about, I speak from experience. Mitsubishi does not have the money to develop a new drivetrain for a niche vehicle.

New STI is faster around VIR than the Evo X. Not by much, but when you consider that the Evo used to crush it, it has come a long ways.

Saying that Mitsubishi could ‘easily’ develop a new hybrid drivetrain, even using existing tech and parts, tells me that you aren’t an engineer.

The Evo X is about 8 years old now, and while it was dominant when it first came out, it has since been eclipsed by the likes of the Mustang GT, M235i, Camaro SS, and even its arch-rival the STI. If they aren’t going to keep it competitive, I’d venture that its time to put it out to pasture. It won’t be lonely, the…

Mirage?

Disagree. Subaru was the first to pass IIHS’s front crash prevention test with full points by avoiding the crash completely, at both speeds, the first year the test was implemented. It was the only manufacturer to do so.
