Or a $15 seat weight sensor that has been in existence for a couple decades since passenger side airbags became a thing.

How often do you drive more than 250 miles in a day, and if you did, I am sure you took a hood safety/bio/food break in there that lasted at least 20 minutes. Getting to 250 mile range is critical. Getting beyond that is nice, bit far from necessary. I had a 2011 Audi A8L that would get 27mpg on the Highway, with a…

Real world fuel economy from turbo engines doesn’t get close to what they achieve in EPA testing (see my own post above).

Counterpoint:

Has he checked the insurance rules for the local track he plans on attending? The insurance rules for the groups holding those track days? Even for convertibles you need both sets of rules to align to be able to go on track. Same thing. With SUVs on track. Or external camera mounts, etc. I am not sure what track and…

I just turned in my Nissan Versa rental on the first day of a 4 day rental yesterday. It’s front brake rotors were so warped it was shaking itself to death when I hit the brakes. But even skipping the brakes, the Hyundai Elantra I got (granted one class up) instead is sick a better car in every conceivable way. The…

Yup- and roll up doors prevent the user from filling the trailer to the full inside height.

The 30 minute video of the helicopter circling the scene certainly cleared up all of my questions. 

Non motorcycle guy here but when I read the headline to me it might as well have said “Sony Builds a Better 8-Track than Panasonic”. 

Bought a used 94 red Probe GT as my first purchase as a college graduate in 97. Loved that car (until I understeered it into a tree- dumb 25 year old me). What’s the Porsche connection with the 2.5 V6? Google search turns up nothing. 

As my screen was glitching from all the auto play ads, embedded photos, amd stupid fucking slideshow format, I was think that I sure as hell hope they remembered the VRod. Thankfully, after only 3 page reloads, I got to number 12 and saw it.

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!

The issue of Car and Driver I received in the mail just today did an analysis of front end blind spots. Of course the new utterly ridiculous GM HD pickups fared worst- you could hide a freaking barn in the front end blind spot. 

Glad I wasn’t the only one thinking this. 

This is perfect. Thank you.  

Porsche isn’t known for their electronics. I knew this going in. I have a Bluetooth device plugged into a cigarette lighter/USB adapter in the glove box, which then connects to the headphone/Aux jack in the glovebox. Yes, an Effing Aux jack on a 2014 car that cost nearly $90k new.

Love the light bar across the back straight off the early 90s 300ZX!

Didn’t think we were debating outside of Porsche colors but yes it’s the best red on mainstream cars. And amazingly it looks good across the range of models- find me a color that works on a little drop top sports car up to a 3 row SUV better than that Mazda red. You can’t. 

Guards best for 930. Arena and Zanzibar are both better reds in the water cooled generations for the 911. And Lava Orange is the tits for a modern GT3.

As others have mentioned, use the clutch/IMS replacement as a bargaining chip for a car that looks to have loved a nice life (Southern California car), nice paint, desirable MT, Aerokit package that really amazes up the car, headlight replacement that also helps with the front end looks (the OEM auburn indicators are…
