In a dealer recently while looking for a new car. Not me but the guy sitting at the table next to me;

Why would VW merge with FCA? They’d get almost nothing out of that and there’d be massive incompatibility between the two companies in terms of design, branding, manufacturing, and quality.

That’s serious towing weight you got in those crankshafts there.

Wait the back of my car says V70

I’m the same way, when I can afford it (except when it’s a tool I’ll probably only use once; then I get the cheapest one I can find from Harbor Freight). But buying higher-quality stuff generally reduces waste and conserves energy and resources; it’s good for everybody.

It gives those tools/items character. I have recently changed my motto to quality over quanity and really try to buy the nicest thing that I can afford when looking for something. I want to buy something once, not have some buy/break/buy again cycle, that just sucks. Granted there is a price point where quality turns…

Not sure why, but I always get a happy feeling inside whenever I see something that’s built to last. Old machinery made of cast iron, stringed instruments that are over a century old and still played, high-quality tools handed down through generations, stuff like that.

Why would you wait? You can track them on your phone.

“Hey Kevin? Yeah it’s Christian...doing great buddy, how about yourself? Oh that’s good, hey while I have you on the phone why is your car at Pagani?”

the guy saying Bentley is how I picture every owner saying it, damn pompous asses lol

It is possible that this car is not a Mustang at all. Notice that there are no pedestrians anywhere near the point of impact.

I think it was that VTEC kicked in.

Clearly one of the tires was slightly under-inflated.

Almost right. The flanges on the wheels are actually responsible for keeping the train from coming off the track. For slight curves and straights is where the angle on the wheels, or“fast angle”, comes into play. It keeps the axles in the middle of the track and off of the flanges. This movement is known as “hunting”.…

Your ignorance is showing.

You laugh, but the EF Civic Si and the DC2 Integra Type-R are still dominant in SCCA autocross.

Ok, I’ll tell them!

Just change the oil and give it a wash, it’ll be like new.

This engine didn’t come out of nowhere; it started life in a largely-forgotten supercar from Nissan.

Forget the manual transmission, if you want a really impractical autonomous car, fit it with a manual coolant pump. The whole time it drives you around, you need to turn a crank that keeps the motors and batteries cool. If you stop, it will catch fire and kill you.
