I don't like twisting my neck to see stuff straight

@Tanshanomi: Seriously! Everyone knows that the best way to maintain viability is to build a ton of high margin vehicles and convince people that that's what they actually want, not some sensible birkenwagon.

At first I thought I'd rather just have the 4Runner than the Lexus. But then I thought I'd rather have a Pathfinder than a 4Runner. But then I like the Xterra better than the Pathfinder. But isn't the Xterra a Japanese Wrangler wannabe? Conclusion: just get a Wrangler.

@Tanshanomi: I think the sound deadening is for road noise and then they pipe in some engine noise for the enthusiast models only, because who wants to hear a VW I-5 or a Mustang V-6?

@elev: GTIs and Mustangs have tubes to let engine noise in the cabin also

Considering how often people use turn signals, I don't think drivers will use this either.

@Strega07: Sweet! It looks like it came right off the 6-foot-wide poster (which might still be on the wall of my parents' garage) I got in middle school. Plus, it has the leg-searing sidepipes that Dodge got rid of in '95, I think.

That VW garage ain't smarter than me! I'm a college GRADUATE

Are Corvettes harder to dent than Saturn's since their body panels are SMC?

@Adam Spano: If you take this idea to the extreme you'll find that a 6.5cc model airplane motor puts out 1.4hp. That's about 215hp/l

@superveloce: they already did. Mustang buyers didn't really want it so Ford shelved it. Enough carping already.

@Motor_Yakuza: there are a lot of green cars I would drive

I'd almost be willing to shell out the 6 Gs just to have it crushed. Almost. Bleccch. Here is a Miura as a visual palate cleanser.

It was actually built to be a lighter for this cigar. #trucks

If the governator gets his way I'll be able to hop on HSR to LA which is great and all but how am I supposed to get around once I'm there without the commuter trains to which he just cut funding? LA public transport is terrible. #rants
