lol okay this comment changes everything. I thought this was your only car and you were going to invest your savings into something purely for efficiency. Plenty of fun cars on that list to keep you occupied outside of commuting. Especially like the GTO.

I see where youre coming from for sure, and 50mpg is literally mind boggling when you consider where cars were at 10 years ago. Good luck with your search, im sure youll find something thats a good compromise between economy and fun. Acura TSX/TL seems like a great place to start, since a decent amount of them still…

But hey, if you have the money to spend and can go out and get a new car, more power to you. I just believe as an auto enthusiast I would NEVER let MPG dictate what car i spend so much of my time in, especially if im spending $23k. if i wanted a commuter car, id buy a shitty cheap efficient car JUST for commuting, and…

Well you got a really cheap deal on your TDI so that makes this a little different, but if you have been following volkswagen forums for the latest batch of tdi vehicles youd know that they are HORRIBLY unreliable. You may obviously get lucky and have no problems but statistically they are worse than practically any…

the ghibli is not sporty at all, gets put to shame by any well sorted sports sedan

we make that sound because its one of the pronunciations of the letter O in english, our native language...

How do people mispronounce alfa? Do they say alfa romeo as in romeo and juliet?

nope, i agree that them calling chris harris a contributor is a stretch but robb does actually write a good amount for them

no, im saying you could get a used car for $10k less than any new electric or even diesel car, and because you saved 10k, it wouldnt matter what mileage it gets (since you have $10k in your pocket to fill it up with).

ahhh yeah im in the US but was hoping youd tell me you were in Europe and got a 335i or something crazy like that

Never really understood this logic though. You need to save money on fuel/electricity, yet youre willing to drop high dollar to do so? Why not just spend 10k less by getting a used car (A nice, fun, manual one that isnt a boring vw) and drive to your hearts content. Youd get a better driving experience, more…

went from a shitty golf to a BMW wagon!! Love e91s good choice. What engine?

Can somebody explain in empirical terms what makes a volkswagen a good car? One of the most fanboyed brands ever and i NEVER got it. Back in they day, they were at least AVERAGE relaibility, looked nice, usually had better materials than the japanese rivals, but still fell short in a lot of things. Now theyre just…

Free way to get rid of a volkswagen? Awesome. A jetta???? even better.

The wrangler has MUCH better approach departure and breakover angles what are you talking about lol. And if by “last” you meant “most recently put out of production” then maybe youd be right? Im a toyota guy and drive a 4runner but youre just making false claims

“ this thing was the last true rugged SUV that was actually off road capable and somewhat affordable” Doesent matter what the article title is, you made a statement which is wrong which im addressing...

Well if were comparing tuned motors (which were not) then any forced induction v6 is a MONSTER compared to 290hp/340tq. The ecoboost v6s make more than that stock and can make 600 tq with a tune. If youre comparing tuned turbo 4 to naturally aspirated v6, its still not that much of a diference even though thats not…

:/ car enthusiast buying a crz makes me so sad

what? They have to push crazy boost to be fast and then often blow up, just like evos and other highly tuned turbo cars

yes but its still a neon! And they blow up when modded heavily
