While I loved R.A. Salvatore’s books during my middle school years, I suspect that they have not aged well.

Wait, the new Eclipse is going to be a crossover?

If only they would make such a car in that fancy rally blue color...

With enough time and money, anything is possible.

Not entirely...

Same here...until they drop down to 10-12k, it’s hard to justify as a 2nd car/track toy. At almost 20k, I’d rather save up a little more for the Porsche (and the higher running costs).

Even though it’s too close to the current timeline (Jamie as a 15 year old), it’d be cool to see a short season about the Kingswood Brotherhood...if only to have the duel between the Smiling Knight and Ser Arthur Dayne.

True, but he matured a lot over the course of the show.

Jeeez, I keep thinking about the TT: Closer to the Edge documentary where one of the racers always cleans his house and mows the lawn before heading out to race in case he doesn’t come back.

While reading the recap, I couldn’t stop thinking this:

Or better yet, wait until he’s leaving the dealership: he’ll be worn out after haggling over a car, and his head will be still be spinning with all the paperwork involved.

It’s best to think of this car (and most of the sport compacts/hot hatches) as a daily driver with sporting pretensions, and the 86 twins as a sports car with daily driver pretensions.

Agreed, but the Civic Si will get better gas mileage and is cheaper than the WRX. If one doesn’t need or want AWD, the Civic Si may prove to be a better “fun grocery getter”.

Along with Sam Fisher (last two Splinter Cell games).

I’m a little disappointed that they didn’t offer the hybrid drivetrain from the Accord. My wife is looking for something nicer with good gas mileage/decent acceleration, and this would have been a good option.

It doesn’t even look like he touched the brakes before crashing. ABS/traction control would have made no difference in this situation.

Most likely, he panicked (riding beyond his abilities from trying to keep up with his riding group) before target fixating on oncoming traffic.

Man, talk about a blast from the past!

I prefer a registration fee that is based on vehicle weight. Maybe this will incentivize the manufacture of lighter weight cars.
