The speakers can be pretty significant. The magnets in good speakers can be crazy heavy.

I see 3 mini headlights. How many do you see?

Crack pipe.

How is that different than a stock 1991 VW?

That shouldn't be an issue. The lifespan of LEDs is ridiculous. Anytime you see an LED light go out, its because of the electronics driving it.

Hmm. Dropping a body-on-frame onto a unibody's floor pan, I'm thinking that chassis is going to have the handling characteristics of a wet noodle.

Just in case anyone is in the market for a 550 replica... http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/cto/418728…

CVTs aren't typically thought of as a sporty option, though they were tested in F1 for quite a while. We'll have to see just how Subaru tunes it before we pass final judgement.

As a matter of fact my rear hatch latch works fine. And my 944 is a slicktop :-D.

Nor do I, but they were a thing in the late 70s or so. Porsche 924 had one when it was introduced.

Dogleg shifter. The idea was to make shifts between 2 and 3 fast and easy since those were the most used gears while racing.

Front-engine Porsche wins again with a manual hood release. Long live the 944.

You are a lucky bastard. I live about 45 miles from the nearest ethanol free gas, and it is hyper expensive high octane race fuel. More like 90 miles to get more standard stuff from a marina.

If the automakers won't even support a fuel that causes people to need more repairs and new cars more often, I think that speaks volumes about how bad it is. I certainly don't enjoy living in Maryland, where it is virtually impossible to purchase ethanol-free gas.

The sound isn't that great. At least its better looking than the Enzo, but still not much of a looker.

Your reading comprehension needs some work. Selling an engine to Italians doesn't make it an Italian engine.

It doesn't say there isn't a 120V option, it may just take too long for marketing to be willing to advertise it. If 240V takes 5 hours, 120V will be at least 10 hours and likely longer.

I picked up a frame with shock really cheap from JensonUSA a few years ago. Got tired of breaking my Kikapu frame, wanted something with similar travel but beefier. I highly recommend not running a triple on it, the BB won't make it over anything.

Okay, I was dead wrong on the hill thing. They took off from flat ground. Screen name is indeed referencing an awesome mountain bike.
