I did this to a perfectly innocent 2000 Nissan Frontier.

I live in Washington DC and I jumped on some larger lower-profile wheels (going from 17 to 18) someone was selling off an A8 for my A3. I’ve cracked one rim thanks to a pothole helpfully obscured by the darkness at the entrance to a tunnel, and parallel parking close to the curb is always an exercise in precision and…

I have a personal hot take on 3rd gear. Here’s the thing with me - I support all the usual Transit Memes for New Urbanist Teens measures. Cities should serve their citizens. Walkability and density should be prioritized over roads and parking. Resources and entertainment should be well-distributed into the urban…

You should probably re-read My Skoda’s comment again, because you missed his point entirely.

Thats the opposite of what they are saying -- GLI has way more equipment for way less money....

Crazy how the GLI will basically be 30-31k and come fully loaded whereas a new MK8 GTI starts at 30k and to get features that the GLI has, you’re looking at almost 40k for the GTI.

I remain convinced nobody knows who I am. At the last Jalopnik Le Mans event a reader tried to argue with me that I was David Tracy, with the Jeeps. I guess he thought I was joking when I said I wasn’t, which was weird, because David isn’t funny. 

That’s what you get for buying a Rolax

QUONKS AND FINGTURES

You forgot to mention the coolest part of this car. The LED DRLs flash RS3 when you unlock the car!

This will be the truck driver's Longest Day, for he has moved A Bridge Too Far.

Since this one is in California, I am very curious as to how this is handled from a engine swap/smog check/registration perspective. Are the rules for EV conversions on post-1975 vehicles handled just like a traditional engine swap, or are they different? Does CARB have to certify the engine swap/EV conversion and…
