lol not me, I tend to shift at 3500-4000 rpm and keep it around 2000-2500 rpm for surface streets and when I’m on the highway I might kick it down to rack up range between fill-ups.

Keep dumping a BL with a 5sp at >4k and the trans gets real unhappy real quick. Even the spec B will eventually start protesting. Subarus are made for the twistys, not the dragstrip. 

Old car is slower than times quoted when new?! NO WAY.

I always enjoyed 3rd gear pulls into 4th. 0-60 is for beginners, and Mustangs leaving C&C.

There near foot of rollout also makes the times difficult to replicate.

0-60 times remain a pissing contest among manufacturers, consumers, and Stans so the automotive media industry is only happy to facilitate and transmit these figures.

So which was it: heading to or from Sunnyvale trailer park?

Here’s another one of those pictures which make me think WTF?

Which one is the bro and which one is the douche?

Yes.

Titan:  Fat and ugly.  But not picky about your credit score.

Absolutely.  Everyone knows not to pen the bull with the horses.

For the sake of discussion, let’s say you did own 45 Geo Metros.

The ass-engined Nazi slot cars are the ultimate expression of single-minded German-ness and their utter inability to admit when they are wrong. They managed to turn what is THE single-worst platform ever created for a performance car into something that goes rather well. To put it another way, one of the ultimate…
