ND, but I had to think about it. I was a teenager when these first came out and while I didn’t favor them over my Integra, I can definitely see the appeal in cruising around in a clean ragtop Z24. I just don’t think it’s as appealing at that price point.

We leased ours, but I think the sticker on it was $31K. Only options we added were mudflaps and rubber floormats. It absolutely cracks me up that I can mat the throttle and get that VTEC snarl when it passes through 5K rpm, plus the sport mode on the transmission actually does something.

We got a base Honda Odyssey and honestly, I think that’s the best one. You still get the 3.5L VTEC V6 and 10-speed transmission with sport mode and paddles, power seats, Bluetooth and a good stereo with subwoofer, and two-zone A/C.

It gives FIA the grounds to closely inspect team gear for automation that shaves those tenths of a second, for one thing. 

Oh come on, there’s a reason that people have been calling Christian Horner “Karen” for the past couple of years. 

I passed on a 1997 Ford Contour SE that I then ended up buying a year or so later after the seller had dropped the price, but I completely forgot that I’d looked at it before until he told me he remembered me.

I sat in a ‘22 Civic Touring last night at our Honda dealership and was really impressed. I wish that it had the pushbutton transmission controls, personally...our Odyssey has those and I’ve really gotten accustomed to them. But overall I think Honda’s got a real winner in this Civic, and it makes me wonder what the…

Yep. It was a fun movie. And a good movie, in some places.

I think my mom had one of these for a little bit. I remember it being really short in legroom. I don’t think it was terribly reliable for her, either.

Oh...Will Smith. The really early Fresh Prince stuff is haaaard to listen to.

Mandy Moore kind of flipped that around...her later music (post-acting breakout, I guess would be the threshold) is really good and she’s clearly been embarrassed of the Candy pop years. I think she’s finally leaning back into that music again, which I’m glad to see...this is a cool re-do.

Seems like it had a really nice interior.

Just for a little while longer. Under-12 vaccines this fall. As it is, we’re still keeping ours in all-virtual school for the upcoming school year. My 13yo and 16yo are good to go though.

Thinking very hard about leasing one of these next year.

God help me, I clicked NP, but I’d still try to work him down. Here’s the deal with this ad. This guy doesn’t want to sell. He loves his car. That’s why the price is up there, and it might even be why it’s mis-listed on Craigslist.

I remember one of the Top Gear guys making fun of the Stig for doing a power lap and hitting the turn signals a time or two.

The question is do they steam the milk? That’s where the difference is.

Our pup chonked up when she was getting lots of table scraps. We ended up cutting those out, reducing her food scoops by 1/2 cup per day, and (most importantly, I think) replacing the volume of that food with dog-safe fruits and vegetables. Baby carrots, banana, and apple mainly, plus bits of other stuff in season…

Funny, the big official LEGO roadshow from several years ago that put out just MOUNDS of bricks for kids to play in like sandboxes used big industrial washers and had (I think) three “sets” of bricks that they rotated out between morning and afternoon visitations. I’d do a test run of bricks in a kitchen dishwasher or…

Conditional NP...I’d want a good PPI and definitely want to know the condition of the HVAC system. This looks fun but I’m cautious.
