Torch is talking about income/cap gains tax against a local owner. No fat local owner = no fat local income tax.

Go watch MLS in person when SKC is in town. Sit close, it doesn't look slow (or soft).

Probably the 928 is the fastest car. But my old ass suspension is scary over 90 or so. Hit 145 in both a E30 325i and a Z31 anniversary edition. There's a spot on the I-35 Kansas Turnpike from KC to Wichita where you can see down a hill and back up for a few miles in the flint hills. No KHP or traffic = foot to the…

Dewars and soda. Or a mimosa if it's early.

Those wheels look Porsche to me... not that we get any love:

That said, a spiritual successor to the MGB is neither imminent nor a foregone conclusion. And a reappearance on U.S. shores is also a "long-term goal" still.

I daily drive a 2003 2500 HO w/ the six speed manual (305hp/555lbft). Torque on demand is addictive.

Most MK8 vehicles clearly use fossil fuels, and the game doesn't allow gay marriage. Protest you local retailer!

"most" Porsches, indeed

Love it. Need a 928 next time as well...

"you could get the same engine" ftfy

I can't be the only one (hard to tell with new Kinja - just as bad but in crazy new ways!) to point out that the lazy/casual "cost to feed even one Range Rover will eat up your initial savings pretty quick" is demonstrably false.
If you suppose 24mpg for the TDI and 12mpg for the Rover, along with 15k/mi years and…

Tap and die sets and bolt extraction kits are also quite useful, as is a power drill. They're all items that require a bit of arm strength to use and keep steady, but they come in handy far too often.

You're wrong. Chosen was the best directing/cinematography/score. The Follow was the best story. Wish I could find them in HD. All of the Z4 films are insufferable. The Ramp is good, but not in the same way. I love how it reflects the Germany I know from my very short time there as a business tourist.

why not a Delorean or 350z? I don't get it...

Best thing about living in Colorado: When we have a nice snowpack on my culdesac, and the neighbors don't park their car at the corner, I can drift my 2500 long bed diesel Ram up to the driveway. As other commenters have noted - long wheelbase = slow motion control.

I just drove the STI. I can't tell you how it was yet. But I will. Eventually.

Grow up. 13B and late 12A had the apex seals to a reasonably reliable state in the mid 80's. The 12A and non-turbo 13Bs were exceptionally simple motors to work on and were easy to rebuild. As a hobby I've rebuilt a 13B, an IH 192, and am currently digging into a Porsche 5.0 928 (quad cam V8). The 13B was by far the…

Your wrong, period. "Powerful" is relative to the times. These were powerful for their times. The ZR-1 and Viper were "exotics" in their day. But as this goes on I strongly suspect you were in diapers at that time.

In general I agree, but there were a few with legitimately serious power, usually from legitimately ridiculous displacement. Buick GSX, the 426 hemi Mopars... not many but some. Also 0-60 times you have to allow for curb weight (though for these cars we're not talking much difference,) suspension and tire, and…
