In almost exclusively vigorous around-town driving, the computer says I average 17 MPG. I think that estimate’s a bit low and I don’t entirely trust it. I will say that while it has a diesel-like redline and power delivery, this “efficiency” model doesn’t come close to diesel-like fuel economy. It’s not bad though.

Bad news: the tax on your Scim ran out in 2005. Lizzie will be less than pleased with you.

Even after a few select mods (chip, exhaust, intake, etc), my 325e never felt as sharp and electric when accelerating as it did when cornering (or braking, for that matter). It didn’t ruin the car - acceleration isn’t everything - but for me personally it was a disappointment in what was otherwise a virtually…

Were you also expecting them to be going faster than 35 mph? I watched that video of the straight away and was super disappointed.

When the Demon Hellcat comes out will Tesla just release a software update called Demon Killer to troll the Mopar boys?

A Jeep’s a Jeep..

I’m pretty sure the production team is very much aware of the discrepancies in JGC generations, and only did this to mess with gearheads.

A van!

I can’t find footage of Gentilozzi doing it (although I found reference to him in forums), and I don’t know what to call it, which makes it hard to search for. I think the general idea, though, is that the driver has driven the car often enough to have a sense of which gear to be in at which perceived speed. The…

Yup. Had to do this myself in two cars during my lifetime.

What does high miles mean in this day and age anyway? I mean, if the mechanicals are functioning as they should and are maintained, and the cosmetic things look good, and you don’t have apparent age issues, like worn hinges or dry rotting window/door seals, is there any reason to not consider it? Sure, repairs are…
