lots of 4R comparisons here.  I’m trying to read through this--I mean AWD isn’t 4WD off road capable, right?  Or have things changed in the AWD world that makes it a legit off roader?  I’m confused.

Most people will never admit to paying a markup —kind of like people are vocal when winning at the casino, and silent when they lose.

Not as extreme as this but a somewhat similar story: in 1997, me and 3 others wanted to travel from KS to Tempe, AZ for the Fiesta Bowl (K-State’s biggest bowl of their history then). None of us had cars roomy enough to trek across the country in. Being $ conscious college kids, I looked at rental options (that also…

That was my thought too.

Heresy, I love my Austins.

almost $30k and 150k miles. Hahahahahhahahahahhaha.  Thanks, I needed a good laugh this am.

I owned the prev gen Si which is a quite similar chassis and the handling is phenomenally good as the author mentioned. In fact, the chassis is so good,…

Hmm, I think you’re on to something. I’d just modify slightly to a lightly used Honda Fit with the motocompacto.

My grandmother owned one of these in hardtop back in the 80's. Strangely, in her (now my) small KS town, there was actually a Renault dealer if you can believe that for a short time. Here’s what the 1 car showroom window looks like today (also was a Datsun dealer for a short time IIRC).

I’d like to see AmmoNYC get in on this

Just a little more
