AWESOME. Does the screen flash "DANGER TO MANIFOLD!" if you dial the boost up too high? ;)

Holy Mackel, I never realized that display was so functional and usefull... damn. also, is that a knob labled "Boost" just below the screen? FTMFW.

only 30 hours a year???? I live in a relatively congested area, so i'm sure my three-mile commute takes more than many, but I'm probably more like 170 hours a year commuting, and when I lived OUTSIDE of the city it was more like 300 hours a year... that seems low. very low.

Yup, those steering racks were notorious. My dad kept two spares on hand for when the mounting bolts on the one on the car inevitably came loose and ruined the through-holes. His seat also collapsed, and we also broke a shifter off. I think we put four starters in it (they were all junkyard pulls though, so probably…

My Alfa had the low inside door handles. it took some getting used to, but try this: Sit in the seat, put your hands on your knees, reach over the release the door handle... oh, how about that? Didn't even have to raise my hand... it's just RIGHt there... This my friends is typical of people who understand…

You haven't been inside a 2014 Dodge product have you? I would say they have the NICEST leather of all the domestics, and the up-level trim interiors are probably the nicest of all the domestics... I test drove a 2014 Dart GT with leather and it honnestly compared favorably in finish quality and materials feel with my…

Permenant 4wd. Selectable low-range, and lockable center differential. This explains all the levers on the console.

More like Mitsubishi Mirage money. The Niva's Main Claim to fame (besides being an entirely capable offroader) is that its as cheap as the dirt its designed to go play in.

See, you joke, but the Lada Niva 4x4 really is just about perfect for it's intended purpose. It's cheap to build, cheap to operate, cheap to repair, highly capable when the road gets shitty (or goes away entirely), provides adequate passenger comfort, and has a useful amount of cargo space. If I could get one in the…

Glad to see K-Cars up high on this list, my buddy had a maroon '84 Reliant K in high school.

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw your classmate's half-sister pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious....

Wow.

Prodigious!

Definitely not a motorcycle, or an airplane... ~aerial whispers~

Yeah, the straight-line performance offered by modern American market cars is kinda silly actually.

Awww man, not DRAMA! Perhaps we can overcome our differences...
