Beg do differ, but no more cheap China made jacks. My third one is leaking and it is going straight to recycling metal bin. Saving up for AC Hydraulic trolley floor jack. Buy once, and done.

Here is a cleaner example without rust and low miles, although not custom wheels.

Perhaps NP elsewhere, but CP all day long because for a California car you shouldn’t have to put up with rust.

OK, I get the Atari to fake wood trim comparison, but altering photographs is just not cool, especially in a review. I expected better from a pro.

Same here, but it helped that I had experience on a motorcycle & a Vespa.

Testing in OC - Like there is no authentic Mexican food there!

I bet he spends the winters in Florida!

As a motorcycle enthusiast, and with knowledge that there are exceptions to every rule, there is nothing about the behavior of the average HOG rider that I find appealing. Actually, quite the opposite! I have seen one of those full dressers tumble end-over-end at freeway speed because the rider looked over his…

Five years? The wipers will dry out long before that. Even if you make an effort to park in covered spot.

Agreed. A tank will slide any other vehicle, especially when in the wet, ice or snow. The only time it can really stop well is on dry pavement, but even then the tracks will lock and a slide will result. Just the coefficient of friction is different. The skid marks are substantial.

Does it have a manual?

That is what gets me about this guy. Within one month he drove 9,281 miles without a mention that commute. Driving approximately 2,000 miles each weekend for even a month is not my idea of fun.

Nice! I just saw one with a GTDi tag here in SoCal. Wonder what that was about. Any clue?

Yep, that got me too. You would think that the front would be much harder on the brakes.

Thanks for the reminder not to ever contemplate owning a vehicle with electronic parking brakes. Classic case of “over-engineering”.

Amen to that. Saturdays are not the same without them!

That is some pretty disturbing marketing/MBA lingo. I can now skip lunch cause my stomach is turned.

The financial statements and notes for which BDO had completed work on would make for some really interesting reading. (Fact or fiction?) Nothing wrong with any firm walking away from a client - the litigation risk from investors was likely not worth it. Just think of ZZ Best!

I guess my 2001 VW golf isn’t worth much. Doens’t look like much, but it does handle well I replaced the front control arm bushings with solid polyurethane units that are an improvement in design, and they cost about the same as OEM. The design is same as those for Audi’s of the same type, but stiffer material. Also…

With all due respect to the hot-rod community, there are others who think of a sports car as something more than “smokey burnouts”. Then again, an econobox with fartcans are as far from a sports car; but, perhaps on the other end of the spectrum. Perhaps it has to do with your environment. If the preference is to…
