I could not agree with you more. Back in 2005, I bought a new TL for my daily driver. Every year since then, the dealer I bought it from calls me on my birthday to ask if maybe I'd consider trading it in for something new. I haven't taken the call in the past three years. There's not a damn car in the Acura lineup…

I agree, but you never know what motivations people have and there's probably a reasonable explanation. Perhaps the '69 SS wasn't in good condition. Or they moved and didn't have the space.

I have friends who are personal trainers. I've also hired a few over the years and your assessment is right. Having a trainer who is too easy or hard on you is a waste of money - but when you find one who is mindful of your limits and encouraging, you will do much more with your workout than you ever will on your…

Look again. He's going just over 60mph, not 100. NZ uses kilometers, not miles. There are plenty of back roads without many intersections in America and this can easily happen here. That's why rural roads have signs notifying drivers of upcoming intersections. I've been on more than a few with a 50mph limit, so…

So you're saying that the finest expression of Porsche driving technology that was split in half in Walker's wreck was NOT going the speed limit? Why do I feel like Captain Renault? I'm shocked, SHOCKED that this Porsche was speeding.

I hear they're fun to drive, but like most other people, I find the looks far too polarizing. A reskinning with something less juvenile will help it sell. I'm convinced that Nissan sent all their talented stylists over to the Infiniti division and left all the pot smoking acid droppers for the rest of the lineup.

I'm a Chicagoan. I've lived in the Rockies, northern Appalachia and southern climates. I don't care if you're Ken Block. All wheel drive is useless if your tires can't get any grip. Unless you have a set of studded snows you can swap on your car, Atlanta is damn near impossible to navigate in freezing rain and…

Nothing wrong with spending money on a car you want to keep using. Repairing is usually cheaper than buying a new car. Unless you're fixing the same thing over and over again.

My dad won a Lexus LS400 in a raffle. He kept it. $25,000 Use Tax. I hope this woman won a lot of after tax cash.

I've had grifters come up to me asking for gas money no matter what the hell I'm driving. Usually when I'm at the gas station. At least they're smart enough to try it when I have my hand on the pump. One idiot and his group of friends tried to pull that on me at a rest stop in rural Ohio.

LifeNews reports that this area has seen five similar incidents in the past month, killing three and injuring four.

Sarah Palin is not an idiot. She's willfully ignorant. The attention people pay her only reinforces this. Why bother taking five minutes to read when you're going to collect your fee regardless?

I have, in my life, been a considerably thinner person and had a fat person sit next to me on a plane. I have also, more recently, been the fat person that makes other travelers' faces fall. Anecdotally, I can verify that being the fat person is almost indescribably worse.

Most people have seen Chris Rock's video. It went viral years ago. Guys like Williams need a recap.

You're obviously not a Miata guy. That's allowed. V8 Miata enthusiasts are a small subset of the modded Miata crowd. Those that are really into modding their cars usually build their own. I rebuilt my turbo Miata from the ground up. I could have bought one if I wanted, but then it wouldn't be mine. There's a…

12000 miles on a V8 conversion with all the issues sorted out? Here's how much they cost brand new when you have a pro put it together for you. The ask is high, but not CP high. More like you should make a counter offer and see what happens. If all you're doing is looking at the sum of the parts and figuring out…

I thought the same thing you did. The car has 12000 miles on (what he's claiming) are new parts. You can cobble together the parts you need and do the work for less than the ask - that's true. But with all new parts? No way. Flyin Miata's parts list without the engine and ECU is $11,000. The ask is high, but…

Indeed he did, but that's not the point. I own a well sorted Mazda Miata with a ton of mods. Dave stated that he would offer $2000 over blue book value and disregard all modifications. If someone offered me $5000 for my car after all the work I did, I'd tell him to jog on. When Dave wants to get serious (or the…
