Oh yea the GLKs weren’t bad I’m hoping for this again

The Hill Assist thing was super jarring the first time I experienced it. Mostly because I didn’t know it was a thing my shiny new Miata could do. I shot forward, almost rear-ended the car in front of me, and promptly stalled it as I mashed the brakes, wholly unaware of what on earth my car had just done to me.

By contrast, all American pickups: “I am Putin. The left lane is Crimea.”

I, too, wish for a return of Audi’s less aggressive styling.

I am still sad they didn’t name it Fast Ten Your Seatbelts..

Did...did he just squash a car with the Charger like muhfuggin’ Mario and then accelerate in the air to overpower two helicopters?

IIRC it wasn’t even a reflector. This was also a direct carry-over from the JDM Inspire, which was what the USDM Accord was sold as in Japan. That car always had the trunk light thing and I think Honda just used it as part of the mid-cycle refresh to save tooling costs on trunk lids while making it appear as though…

Everything they did with that taillight was bad. I want them to know this.

That reflector they added looked like a a tack on reflector that one could buy a Pep Boys.  Looks completely mismatched with the rear end.

The Jones Act is terrible in so many ways. During the last(?) devastating hurricane in Puerto Rico (I’ve lost count, sadly) the US literally could not ship aid there because we did not have Jones Act compliant ships! Our own hostages people, and we could not even help them thanks to a terrible century old law that…

If the Jones Act was actually encouraging US shipbuilding (as it was intended to do), that would be great, but it isn’t. I suspect the carbon emissions are considerably higher than needed, too.

Exactly, they are all tall wagons.

100% agreed. With a little more oomph and A LOT more predictable reliability, the RX8 could have easily approached S2000 (or I dare say NSX) levels of greatness. Such a fantastic car to drive, but ultimately let down by the Achilles heel that is the RENESIS. I had a wonderful and relatively trouble-free experience…

Change the oil on time and drive it like you hate it and it can come close. Most people don’t realize that rotaries pull oil from the sump and inject it into the rotor housing with the fuel. Dirty/old oil doesn’t burn clean and isnt good at it’s one job, coupled with the fact that old oil clogs up the oil…

I think I still prefer the Hyundai

No uglier than a tesla, or bolt. 

Just have the emergency guys stop showing up. Eventually the sink hole will get filled with cars so they can just pave over it and fix it faster.

These kind of cars fit probably 75-80% of all use cases for the average urban/suburban/exurban commuter but people act like we’re ripping the farm trucks out of their hands because they’re the one guy who tows horses for 2000 miles a week. 

Potato potato. Either way it seems firmly to be 300 miles or more and that is all anyone needs for daily life. Except for 98% of the posters o this forum who demand 600 mile range per tank of gas for all their Real American needs. 

Don’t attribute to lack of creativity what can instead be attributed to horrendous cost cutting...
