I went from an ‘06 Mazdaspeed 6 to a ‘12 Audi A5. While I definitely feel more “adult” by not driving the boy racer car around, it really didn’t feel like there was any noticeable step up in luxury. I think Mazda is already there when they try, they just need better marketing to get the general public to notice it.

Enter N. Korea, pose for photos, and praise their leader. This is Trump’s Jane Fonda moment.

The only way that I can think of to justify that claim is they’re including fires started by hot engines and exhaust touching leaves and grass under parked cars.

“Using public roads is consent!”

It’s a Miata!!!

That’s really not a fair fight. It should be Integra GSR VS Celica GTS or Intergra Type R VS Celica All-Trac.

I like the flares, but they should have gone a bit bolder. 3.5" total width increase is weak. I want 3-4" on each side in the rear.

That was some awkward editting, and I’m still not sold on the engine being in the wrong spot, but I’m still optimistic that the lines will look much better once the camouflage is removed.

I also had a recall on my 98 Corvette. The shape of the hole in the trim piece that the bottom portion of the seatbelt came through could lead to the belt getting jammed. I never had any issues with it up to that point, but it was a free fix, so I went ahead and had the replacement trim piece installed. My seatbelt got…

3rd/Neutral: I still get reminders several times a month that I need to have the recalled Takata airbag in my Mazdaspeed 6 replaced. I sold that car 3 years ago. I’m guessing the either the new owner never looked into it, or Mazda’s system tracks by owner, not VIN.

To be fair, it really doesn’t matter what you’re driving. No one is going to stop for you nowadays. Two years ago I broke down in my 72 Vette while leaving Corvettes at Carlisle. For 2 1/2 hours I sat there with my hood up while my insurance tried to find some place that was open to tow it to. Literally thousands of…

I like having a shiny, clean car, but I also enjoy pissing off the purest when I show up in a mud-caked Vette.

To be fair, Disney monorails look at least 260 times better.

That was my thought too - unfinished. It’s like the designer laid out the basic lines they wanted and went out for lunch. They came back only to discover that their boss had it rolled out on stage.

You’re bringing back memories. I loved 2. Once I figured out how to drive the McLaren, my friends didn’t stand a chance.

Same. I did one cruise down Skyline Drive in Virginia with a Corvette club. The destination was a restaurant near Luray. After exiting Skyline, you’re on a 4 lane road heading down a mountain with a ton of switchbacks. Everyone kept picking up more and more speed while staying bunched together. Realizing how crazy it…

It appears to have different mirrors as well.

Neutral: I tried to drive less. A few years ago I was living in the Northern Virginia/DC area, driving 45-minutes each direction for a commute (which in DC, is what? 10 miles?). I got a new job in DC and then moved to Maryland near the WV border. Double the distance from work, but I can walk to a commuter train that…

Maybe I’m not seeing the scale of a T-Roc, but it just looks like a new Cabriolet. If they actually build it, I’d expect it over here, and to not hate it.
