Guess we'll just have to wait until the final figures come out - but it's disappointing to expect disappointment when it comes to enthusiast vehicles.

I can see where you're coming from - I was contemplating that myself. If I lived in Europe, I'd get the GTD .. less tax, cheaper fuel and better mileage. But the price premium of the diesel engine on top of the increased price of diesel fuel in the states really makes it hard to take the GTD over the GTI. It takes…

I don't think anyone buys a diesel car under the pretense that it's going to be faster than its gas counterparts.

I think a few people would like the GTI suspension, tartan seats, etc. and what not. I'm a MK6 TDI owner and I admit I'm gravitated toward the GTD goodies as well but I'm not sure whether or not it'd be worth trading in for.

Thank you, thank you. She actually knows very little about cars, she just thought it looked more exotic than it actually was, like many people who have no idea what it is.

When I test drove the FR-S, I knew I had to have it. The same went for the young lady that later found herself in my passenger seat.

EXACTLY. THIS.

I picked up who is now my fiance in an FR-S for our first date. Maybe the car isn't their problem.

This is when you follow them to work and then stab them in the parking deck. Just kidding. But for real, I can't believe some of the shit these types of douche nozzles pull on the road.

Checked it out myself with a cleared browser history. This makes me happy. Burn them with righteous journalistic fire every chance you get, Torchinski.

Being a niche product, I don't see why they can't sell these in the US with purely an order-based system. Let them sit in a Golf, see if they like it, then tell them they can get one that gets 130 mpg for $__,___. Place a few at their highest revenue dealerships and call it a day/year. You don't have to put one at…

You sure this isn't a clip from a Paranormal Activity movie?

If posting this was an attempt to bring out all the crazies and the hate-spewing brethren of the Jalopnik community, well done, sir. I wonder what it's like being this hateful and wondering why so many people don't understand/like you. "I don't get it, all I said was being different makes you less of a human being." I…

Just out of curiosity, what would you shoot for?

I got an email yesterday from the dealership I bought my FR-S from saying that they were interested in buying it back from me and wanted me to come in to have it appraised. I responded to them asking them, once again, to remove it from their system because, like I had told them several times before, I have not owned…

A silver Equator magically appears in the parking lot next to my apartment about once every 3-4 months. I've never seen anyone get in or out of it and it's never there for more than a couple of hours.

As said before, thank you for reporting on the tangible facts and not just running with everything else being spewed on the Internet these days. Journalistic ethics are quickly dying these days in the age of advertisement revenue via page visits and your scrutiny and skepticism of fishy shit is always appreciated.
