Timing chain failures are basically non-existent. You run more of a risk of a valve spring breaking, which is also a rather rare occurrence for a factory motor. Most valve spring failures can be attributed to aftermarket spring manufacturing flaws, people mismatching the spring to the cam profile, or people not…

LS motors are all interference engines.  It’s not that big of a deal.

No dice at $7300.  That is LT1 C4 territory.

The problem is a lack of training combined with a low wage and incentives surrounded by unrealistic expectations. That’s why the company is blamed.

The Bullitt’s price point didn’t make sense to me. The way dealers around here optioned them all out, they were within $5k of a base GT350, and who wouldn’t go for the GT350 at that point?

I was going to buy a leftover 2017 back in January of 18, but the dealer decided to play games and I walked.  I had been keeping an eye out for the refreshed Frontier, but without a manual option, it's no longer on my radar.

I just noticed that, and am also disappointed.

I have the GE Nighthawks on my 944. It isn’t as big of a deal with the pop-up headlights, but I wouldn’t go that route for a fixed headlight on a classic car.

When I bought my GTI last year, I opted for the Rabbit trim because it was the only trim one could get with LED headlights without a sunroof and without leather seats. The base S came with halogen lights that came with a Poor rating. I believe the LED lights on the Rabbit were rated Acceptable. They are fantastic…

Since I tend to work on other people’s cars in between my projects, I keep a scrap pile on the side of my garage that consists mostly brake rotors and shocks/struts with the occasional water pump.  Once it gets big enough, I’ll either take it to the scrap yard for a few bucks, or I’ll trade it to the landscaper in…

I’m glad to see Honda decided to fire all of the 7th graders from their design team.

If Mazda can make attractive vehicles that meet modern crash standards, then BMW surely should be able to.

Yeah, I’m not as married to Continental as I once was. 10-15 years ago, they were the brand that delivered exceptional performance at a discounted price. Now, there are other brands that have seriously stepped up their competition in dollars/performance.

I like it. I’ll be looking at it as a replacement for my 2019 Rabbit when the time comes.

So, pop the hood and tighten the bolts. 

If you have an issue with the visual design, then the fact it is a Holden is what you are calling a problem, whereas I am saying it is what makes the car endearing. I’ve owned one for 14 years now, so I’m well aware of the people who got their panties in a twist “becuz it diDnT L0Ok lYke teh oLd 0ne!!!11!!!” Here’s…

And the GTO was better for it.

Delaware seems accurate in its ranking. The state is flanked by two of the worst-ranked states: Maryland and New Jersey, and those inhabitants come into Delaware all the time to get their tax-free shopping on. It is no surprise that Delaware is one of the top 5 states with the most speeding tickets. People here treat…

The amount of aggression that Colorado natives exhibit towards anything that remotely resembles California is insane. I had to take a business trip out to Denver back in 2018, and my rental car was a Cadillac XTS with a California license plate. People were being downright assholes to me on the roads: tailgating me,…

Negative. While it looks to be in decent shape from the pictures, these cars just don’t command a ton of money. They are great bases for projects, and I would be replacing the drivetrain with something I wanted, including fuel injection. Basically, that’s a $5,000 car.
