Their lives aren’t being ruined by someone else, they ruined their own lives. Actively, they were not passive bystanders to this. This was not teenagers doing stupid shit on a whim, they drove 3 hours to essentially accomplish grand theft auto.

Are we not doing hat tip anymore? I sent this into the Jalopnik tip email address 2 days ago.....

I did this with my bone-stock 2013 STI. 3 years, and 45k miles, got ~85% of what I paid for it when selling. Didn’t hurt that it was a SWP hatch, which is/was apparently a reasonably in-demand combo.

I’m failing to understand the point you are trying to make. Are you implying that crashes of this nature never occur?

Damnit Kinja, messing up my link.

They backpedaled to avoid drama. I would hardly call that ‘debunked’. They certainly didn’t confirm your theory of ‘pedestrians first’.

I think there’s a significant difference between visual aids (like a 3rd brake light) and driver aids (like lane-keeping assist). The fact that you are lumping them into the same category makes me question your judgement.

That’s your opinion. My opinion is that your opinion is naive.

My point is that rejecting it simply because YOU don’t need it is selfish and luddite, as well as counter-productive. Many people are shit drivers, especially in my state, but getting them off the road isn’t a realistic option. Autonomous cars can’t come soon enough for these people.

By that logic, why even bother with brake lights at all? You should be paying attention to the car in front of you and be able to tell when they’re braking. Also no airbags or seatbelts, because you shouldn’t be getting into accidents in the first place.

Hey Tav, a guy I know repairs and restores 3000GTs and Steaths. If you’re ever back in the market for another 3S once your finances become stable again, he might be able to help.

Understood.

Yep, apparently I spoke too soon.

Oh, look at that. Guess that blows a giant hole in your ‘theory’.

I’ve used both, and while I have no seat of the pants observations, I did attempt to do my due diligence with my most recent addition to my garage (turbo I-6). Cursory searches at the BITOG forums and posted UOA’s leads me to believe that the Pennzoil Platinum is at least as good as Mobile 1, and is cheaper. Basically…

 Mobile oil, which is better than Pennzoil in my opinion, anyway.

You write like a drunk 12-year-old, and your opinion doesn’t matter.

Didn’t Subaru lift a 4wd Loyale wagon back in the 70's? I remember an ad that featured the US Ski Team.....

I haven’t come across it much, but then again most of our customers don’t need parts with that kind of strength. The closest we come is ensuring a maximum surface finish, which incidentally does improve tensile strength.
