yeah, i’ve never quite understood people not taking off their roof racks. Like, i understand some cars have them built in via rails and such, but most are add-ons and readily removable in under 10 minutes.

Just shows really how little most people want to deal with things and why options like seasucker work for many.

as someone who owns and plays car mechanic sim 2018, this is of interest to me. It was fun but definitely clunky and repetitive. i’d be intrigued by more of a deep dive like wrench is offering.

They already know that and won’t be releasing the id3 stateside. NAR will get the id4 electric crossover. Canada might get the id3.

came to say the same thing. Have a star.

Buy the $1000 spare, start rebuilding the numbers matching one. You’ll have a running vehicle you can enjoy, and an engine you can put together and repair at your own (and your wallet) manageable pace.

Yeah, the 3.6 vr6 definitely takes the cake for that immediate low-end torque (and wookie noises :D ) but i dunno. Seems like throwing in “sport” on something inherently unsporty powertrain-wise seems bad. Then again, i also think the same thing can be said for “turbo” on things without turbos (or ICEs) but i don’t…

i don’t understand why they’re putting the gti sized turbo (is20) into the cross sport and leaving the golf r turbo (is38) on the table. Seems like first thing i’d do owning this thing is flash tune to stage 1 to at least match the power near the bigger turbo, but really at the end of the day the ea888 engine shines…

Lower it, and then it’s a proper electric hatchback that we all want. :D

I bet these will grow in interest as the value bottoms out on them and people entertain drivetrain swaps to make them either full electric or some other standard ICE drivetrain (z4 gte v8? yes please:

Most appreciated. Excellent article, and good luck on your future endeavors!

I think this will end up being the GT trim front-end for the Golf, GTI will have proper red trimming, LED fog ala the GTE previously seen.

if this hadn’t been shared yet, i would be disappointed in jalops everywhere. You have saved the day.

My first thought was at that price and condition, it should just go straight to BaT.

don’t buy big ugga-dugga SUVs if you can’t maneuver a big ugga-dugga SUV.

I was thinking the exact same thing tbh.

Great article. Barstool is a garbage fire, and unfortunately if NASCAR has saddled up with them, guess they have to get some burns too.

I saw one of these last year at a cars and coffee and thought it was absolutely brilliant. Someone who’s into that vanlife or camplife should definitely get up on this.

I mean, if they put it on the actual button area, the dinguses will never actually remove it, and they’ll it’ll be like all the “this is how i open” stickers on tailgates.
