The reason I DO wrench on my cars is simple. I have a deal with my wife. I get the value of the labor on any repairs I do as my fun money! I have some track days coming up. And wouldn't you know it, her Jetta needs a new suspension. The Koni's arrived yesterday.

Should we assume the car in OEM trim suffers from serious understeer?

What a longboard lacks in maneuverability, it makes up for in stability. It's all about wheelbase.

Ok, having watch the video, the joke's on me.

First mod!

I think it's going to make for an excellent vehicle to cover here on Jalopnik for the next year or so.

Amen. Where's the petition link?

The codriver was just anxious to adjust the pace note. I think the proper amendment would be "Caution house foundation maybe."

Just looked it up. No go. Why in the world wouldn't give us the chance to chase TopGear times?!??

I know the Top Gear track is in GT5. But, what about the Liana?

Ahh, so this is for the Mr. Burns types among us.

I manage a housing department for an urban city in NJ. I sent an inspector out to look at 30 homes that were abandoned by their owner. Of the 30, he found 3 that had actively leaking natural gas. Idiots are breaking into units and stealing all of the mechanicals for scrap and not even bothering to shut off the gas. I

WRONG! That's a lateral skid. The contact patch from an F1 car is a bit wider than that.

Grand Pricksas!

Uhh, Tanner. You're a great driver and all. But, I think the rules clearly state that you have to be champion NINE times before you can pull a Sebatian Loeb and do a partial season out of retirement.

Diamonds are pretty much worthless. Their rarity is engineered.

It's way more than just jewelry. A lot of these really rare watches are truly investments that will never be worn or even see the light of day. Many of them appreciate in value. Eric Clapton made a KILLING on a watch he recently sold at auction.

No, you are missing the point. You don't need to find the wet to annoy a tailgater. Wash your windshield and watch them slow down when the overspray hits theirs.

That's what the windshield washer is for. It's pretty fucking amazing how well that works. The "overspray" lands on their windshield and they instantly back off. To this day, I don't think anyone I've done it to realized I was doing it intentionally.
