Holy smokes that things is cool. Also probably the only car ever to pull off 3-spoke wheels.

SAME. Greatest Hits are the bane of the obsessive collector. I think we’re past the point of introducing them for this gen, which I’m so happy about.
Shit like this is why I low-key resented the kids in high school that fetishized Asian (specifically Japanese) culture. They’d flip their shit for anything Japanese, I guess because it was so exotic.
Out of the six new cars I have bought, the only one that didn’t come with a full tank of gas was the first BMW I bought Euro Delivery. Cost $180 for the first fillup on that one too! The second BMW I bought Euro Delivery I got a full tank for free in Germany, and another full tank when I picked it up again in the US.
My car had been on the classifieds for two months. Of course, the very day I got it inspected and renewed registration, someone came and bought it.
Put the ad on the newspaper, and fill the tank, it will be sold in less than 3 days...
The day before I posted my last car ad, my xenon headlight finally decided to give up the ghost. Because of course it did. Naturally that was just the cherry on top of all of the other things that just suddenly went wrong as soon as I decided to sell it.
How do you quadruple the value of a Mitsubishi? Fill the gas tank.
Low-hanging fruit:
So... it looks like a Ford, only with less reliability?
You’d think so, right? But I’ve seen on the news multiple times where a “car was out of control due to a stuck throttle”. I remember at least one instance where the police used a cruiser to stop the car by getting in front and then braking. But it’s not just the “average” driver that doesn’t know to just put it in…
I got your quirky right here padre... What all the hippest priests are driving these days.
The Accord is the right answer. Its already “Jesus Approved”!
Done and done. Get a used/CPO Crosstrek. Perfect blend of utility, weirdness, reliability, and price. You can even get one with a manual.
Met wife on the 3000GT forum. Now I maintain three ‘94 VR-4’s and her. Shoot me
Fun fact of the framed-window variety: nearly EVERY VW sold since the late nineties has had this feature built in but (for some insane reason) never widely advertised in any of their literature. A proper Easter Egg for savy owners, if you will.
Username checks out.
Here’s some things I’ve picked up...
I’m not sure how many times I have to restate this for people to understand, but all BMWs come with turn signals, and their owners use them at all appropriate times. They just flash in a color that peasants can’t perceive.
Anecdotal evidence suggests this is a feature removed from later models, but E30s also have turn signals.
