Pretty much learned to drive in one of these when I was 17, working for a cattering service. Good times.

Would take a closer look at the rust and the hood before buying.

I love my Nokian Nordman 3. Best bang for the buck, IMO, in the size our cars need. (I also happen to drive an '03 SVT Focus).

That implies manufacturers would establish battery standards. Interesting idea.

I like the wing mirrors. They seem to help alot with visibility. Not that it matters, as I'm sure most people buying those cars will spend more time looking at their iPhone screens while driving.

Dat ass.

Exactly why I posted that particular commercial.

*sigh* What would the 1st gen Rav4 think of its newest descendent ?

Never got to drove one, sadly. I did enjoy the funky exterior styling. I got to drive my aunt's 2nd gen plenty of times before she changed it for a Juke last year. Also got to drive my uncle's 3rd gen a couple times. Loved the older one much more. Looked better and felt better too.

I disagree. I'm pretty sure it must be rather hard to change the car just enough that it seems refreshed without altering the classic Porsche design cues.

The Rav4 is getting worse and worse. The 2nd gen was the best, IMO.

Anyday.

Most likely going to be my next car. After I get bored with finding parts for my SVT Focus or simply just can't source them anymore. Looking forward test driving one.

That W124 would make an awesome DD/winter beater. The volvo seems to be much cleaner and would probably end up being a much more fun project. I'll go for the Volvo, those are cool cars to learn on.

Techniques first, upgrades later. 4 easy tips to good winter driving:

Fiesta RS WRC. Canadian winters....need I say more ?

Montreal's strip club see a HUGE rise in affluence during F1 week, along the luxury restaurants. I don't see why it wouldn't be the same in Houston. From a business perspective, it's a good idea.

I'm in love. Now I won't be able to settle for an affordable used one of the past gen. :(

Yes.

YES ! I was about to post that, but then I saw your reply. Those engines are incredible. I'd kill to drive anything powered by one of them.
