I got lucky one drive back when a yellow Integra Type R (looked legit, was possibly a very well done clone) blew by me about half an hour outside of Savannah one time when I was driving home during the day. I sped up and paced him from about a mile back. He was doing around 105 for most of the way from Savannah to…

That would be him! We parted on not great terms because of some stuff he pulled with his fiance at the time, who was also a friend of mine, but I have some great memories of doing stupid shit with cars. I’m so glad my college experience happened when it did, before the days of widespread documentation of everything…

“I live in Warner Robins.”

My condolences. At least the drive to the coast isn’t too far, even if it is boring!

 

Yep, went to school at SCAD! I honestly can’t think of another reason to live in a city with that much poverty, violence, and racial division.

Fuck yes I did. When I graduated high school in ‘99 I got a 1995 3000GT, the naturally aspirated version, with a dark grey leather interior that was only available in the SL model (which mine wasn’t, but the previous owner had it installed) and Epic Impeller 16" chrome rims. I kept it shiny as fuck all day, every day.…

You’re a fucking idiot auto industry shill. Your dog would be more entertaining than you are.

I would explain the law to you, but I don’t think you’d understand anyway.

“Please, please do not publish pictures of possible future cars or designs that are clearly in a private facility.”

Fuck off. It’s a picture that’s already on the internet, widely distributed, and relevant to automotive news. 

Uh, land cruisers depreciate less quickly than the Lexus variant of them.

Better be willing to spend 30k to maintain it.

If the entertainment system in my truck didn’t work I’d be raging mad. Will the truck still dirve? Yeah. But, it’s not even 2 years old and I paid in excess of $50k for it, so it damn well better have all the doodads.

Commenting on your post because it appears gawker is hiding top level negative comments. Don’t buy Dyson. It’s overpriced, un-repairable, crap!

Jesus christ, for all the aggressive hawking of this stuff that you do, you’d think it wasn’t overpriced crap.

Dear Subaru,

“VW PTSD”

1.8t? I don’t believe you.

The 4 cylinder is legendarily reliable, albeit extremely underpowered. Even so, you still get to deal with possible German electrical gremlins.

I got an ‘08 Accord after my VW. I really like the driving experience of the VW more, the weight of the steering, much less road noise than a Honda, etc. However, every time I shut the door on the Accord, whether I had to drive 1 mile or 1,000, I knew it would just fucking work. That was always a little up in the air…

I could damn near maintain a Porsche for what it would cost to run that damn Jetta at 110k miles, too!

Fuck no. I owned a 2001 VW Jetta 1.8t. I’ll never own another VW product (except a Porsche.)
