The manual take rate was pretty high on the Integra.  In fact it was surprisingly higher than they anticipated.  Most articles stated approx. 3:1 manual to CVT.

I think I read an interview shortly after the release with one of the product designers or heads (I forget now) that had a lot of beating around the bush on questions on a more souped up model.

Pricing will be interesting. It will have to be a smidge more than the CTR, but less than the TLX Type-S. But also be competitive with the VW/Audi offerings.

Yeah, $48,295 starting.  Oh well.

Older accounts of DirectvStream have this. I only had 2 streams, and had to pay an extra $5 or $10 for 3 streams. I just kept 2 streams and shared it with my parents.

I believe Bahrain is Gulf Air and Emirates is Eithad.

Retain the manual trans...not a new thing, but something to carry over.  I’m curious if they do as they move to the new platform IIRC that is similar to all their BoF vehicles.

The Drive had a mention of a 400W power inverter accessed via the bed.

To be fair in this specific instance I believe it was a common issue on Hyundai/Kia engines that they needed replaced early due to a design flaw. Although most customers would be none the wiser a discerning buyer may know this and appreciate that the work had already been done on a known engine issue.

Makes sense to go to a build-to-order method for New Car deliveries. How often do people go to the lot and find a car that is ALMOST what they want but not quite so they compromise and end up bitter that the car they have isn’t quite what they wanted.  Or have to endure the ol’ dealer trade for a car nearby that is…

Isn’t that what the Trail Boss is competing with? Why have two (2) trim levels compete with the Tremor and the Rebel? A Rebel is pretty similar to the Trail Boss and the Tremor is arguably like the Trail Boss as well. You can refute that by looking up the specs but I don’t feel like going back to see which ones have…

The General bungled every single chance it had to compete in the market. Blazer is a shell of its former self when BoF SUV’s are just as hot as CUVs. The Trailblazer is a travesty to the name and the Camaro is an unwanted bastard child. They had a competitor to the Charger they axed.

My parent’s bought a Journey with this same deal. They had the transmission replaced, but all in all that thing was a piece. They had said for an additional fee you could add on the Bumper to Bumper portion (maybe MaxCare).

I went from an older LG Plasma to an LG C9, albeit in a larger size, and the PQ on the C9 is amazing. I had dabbled getting a Bravia 950 range but decided to go all in an it was well worth it.  I can’t compare the Sony OLED and LG OLED but in my research the Sony has an edge due to better processing.

I was in the Van style camp, but my favorite was when I would use the eraser and it would cause “damage” to my vehicle. That was always fun.

I bought All-clad non-stick when they run their factory sales. I paid a little more than I would on other non-sticks. To me it was worth it at that price point. At the MSRP I wouldn’t touch them.

As someone who bought an OEM warranty, I would suggest shopping around as you don’t have to buy from the dealer you purchase your vehicle from.

I feel similarly. I don’t hate Jason Mantzoukas, but I don’t enjoy his characters that much.

Is this even surprising?

As a fellow non-book reader I had come to the realization that the rash folks are the servants and the cut folks are the doppelgangers. The rash folks set stuff up and are aware of their actions.
