I really want to like this car, and I really want it to be good because it’s finally in the US, but damn this car is ugly. I mean not just opinion ugly, but completely hideous I’d be embarrassed to be seen in it ugly. Could you imagine picking up an educated woman for a first date in this thing?

I still can’t get over how fucking ugly this monstrosity is. Honda’s designers need to be dragged out in the street and beaten with phone books.

Personally I’ve never liked the Z series, it’s just too much hood for my taste, reminiscent of a jag in front but lacking the rear haunches that make the e-type work. The Z4 M coupe with it’s bigger rear and fastback style is the only one I find appealing.

Not to state the obvious, but the little 1 series is far better looking than the clown shoe.

Didn’t it cost less than this brand new? I feel like these were in the 45-50k range when they were on dealer lots.

FWIW most Focus RS buyers opt for the RS2, granted this is a small sample size but I’ve personally helped about 10 people get into a Focus RS, I think only one of them didn’t want the RS2.

moving millions and millions of megaton of earth (spending abysmal amount of energy by doing so) in order to move the traffic to the permanently lighted, ventilated, hi-maintenance device that ultimately also has its capacity limits does not sound like clever, viable nor very eco solution to transportation…

I would have gone with ‘MX-5 clubsport’ or whichever version it is that comes with the BBS wheels, brembos, different dampers, and LSD.

Mitsubishi 3000GT dude needs to take a clue that even an authentic Colin McCrae (the worlds greatest rally car driver ever IMHO) rally car only garners $300,000 dollars.

Well this is interesting...someone on the car forums flagged me about this craigslist ad -which has been pulled down for “review” now..but before it went down - I was able to look at the vin # posted:

Remove a zero and divide by two and you’re there

For those curious, there’s a simple way to calculate how much your modded car is worth:

Crap-talk all you want, I still love mine to pieces, horrible, wallet-crushing faults and all.

So what you’re saying is owning an RX-8 is like dating a stripper

Dont be hating on the RX8...

Please enlighten me to this short term 5%+ investment fund! In the meantime, I’ll introduce you to my Nigerian Prince friend...

Yeah, and they aren’t getting sub-1% 84-month loans. Even people with excellent credit will at least be facing 3-5% for that length of term (my credit union will do 3.25%).

It doesn’t have to; they’ll be back at the dealership in 3-4 years trying to trade out of it.

Yes, I’ve never seen a Democrat driving a car they can’t afford, wearing clothes they can’t afford, or talking on a phone they can’t afford.

This is why I worry about all of the engine downsizing and turboing that has happened over the past few years. Sure, the smaller engines make the same amounts ​of power as their predecessor’s​, with better economy, but if the engine is over stressed constantly, they break quicker. I worry that this generation of…
