I took my FRS off roading in gravel yard this weekend. Now I have a new hooning space! I'm going to go back to get pictures and maybe a video. IT WAS LIKE HEAVEN!

It was a sleeper in the sense that no one ever really understands that it was quick. To them they just saw, oh look a Passat, how boring. Then you passed them doing Autobahn levels of speed, and they were like what just happened.

I know, I loved it, but hated it. The noises it made in higher revs was awesome. It might just be my own personal experiences, but it could have been better.

It was a quintessential sleeper which made it awesome. It could cruise easily at allegedly 130mph on the highway ticking around 2k rpm. It's just the complexity of the entire underpinnings let it down.

I'll do my namesake, The Passat W8, looked like a normal German Saloon, but was packing a W8 engine that was the weight and size of a V6. In theory, brilliant. In practice, a fucking nightmare. Plasma cut heads made it impossible to re-ring. Wiring harness if one lead went bad was $3500. It was possible to make…

It's also missing how the lighting perfectly sets the mood for cool impromptu social get togethers, and how it can use those meetings to socially connect on Twitgram and Instatter. Dynamic, decisive, money, cool, hipster, things..... The brand new Audi A3.

None of you will beat this.

I corrected my mistake, and Kinja won't let me take it down! KINJA!!!!!!

My mistake, I misinterpreted paragraph 2. I reread it and now I understand what he was saying. My apologies.

Sorry I read it at first and it didn't register immediately. Now I get it. For everyone else that made the same mistake, reread paragraph 2.

I am no Neil deGrasse Tyson, but...

So it's not going to be unveiled at Chicago, dammit.

If it can come with 3 pedals, they just created a turn key Formula D car.

Is this who is driving?

Next in line for recall, 1967 Camaro Z/28 for not having airbags, 3 point seat belts, lack of crumple zones, and really bad emissions.

Really? I did not know that.

Seeing that as the small pic on the front page, I swore that was an Evo, then I saw you were driving it and realized it was the STi. WTF Subaru?

(Full Disclosure: Aston Martin wanted us to drive the V8 Vantage GT so bad, they flew me to the UK to see how its new cars are made, and how its old cars are re-made, and then to Germany to the Nürburgring 24 to see Chris Harris help race one of their Vantage racecars to a class podium. I'd never been. Next year, I…

Lamborghini Uraco's, they're just cool.
