Tesla is a Fortune 500 company. Index funds will inherently buy any stock of the Fortune 500 company because they are in the Fortune 500-that’s how an index fund works. Look at the top holders of Tesla and you will see that they are all well known index funds- Blackrock, Vanguard, Morgan Stanley, etc. Chances are if…

Lol the fire trucks are the problem. You know a city school bus is 35-40 feet too right? Also a standard city bus.  Maybe they are making the roads this way so public transportation can navigate them.  Interesting how the same manufacturers make fire trucks and buses and they are similar lengths.  It seems weird to…

They stopped making the Celica in the U.S. almost 20 years ago (2005 was the last year). Better used option for FWD would be a Civic Si. The only enthusiast Corolla is the GR which is unaffordable and the Sentra hasn’t had a real SE-R in years ditto the Mazdaspeed 3.

There’s still the Corolla and Civic. Those have been the basic starter cars for as long as I can remember and they both are still available with a stick shift.  There’s also the GR86 which is a great entry level performance car.

2nd Gear- A lot of what Lambo and Ferrari make money off is branded swag. Around 50% of Ferrari’s profit comes from merchandise (roughly $2 billion or of their $4-5 billion in revenue). I don’t think McLaren has that kind of international brand cachet and probably never will. 

To overcome lack of power steering old cars used larger wheels to give more of a mechanical advantage i.e. leverage to steering the car.

Wait are you saying a separate metered panel running just a 240v 30 amp as opposed to a subpanel off the existing 100amp?  I have not seen that.

Oh yea, I get hit with a $700 personal property tax bill every year on my 4Runner.  Shit is no joke.

You realize most modern cars are direct injection. The Toyota GR86, Corolla GR, and the new Corvette ZR-1 are the only new cars I know that use both Port Injection and DI.  DI also causes oil dilution- a problem that is not unique to VW and a common issue with Honda’s.  GTI’s are no less reliable than any of the cars…

I’m partial to E28's myself and that is M5/M6 territory.  In fact I could probably by 4 really nice 535's for that.

They can’t because the windshield washer reservoir, brake master cylinder, and some other things are still under the hood.  It will stay unlocked.

That’s probably true of most car companies at this point.

I’m feeling like GTI is the answer here.  Compliant enough for the hellscape that is Michigan’s roadways yet capable of doing the occasional track day (with room for tires!).  Also able to fit kids and their stuff.  Manual or DSG are both good.

The early Bugatti cars were straight up race cars. They didn’t even build a touring car until 1922 and even then it could still be used as a race car. All the VW era cars are top speed cars and nothing else outside of a straight line it is not winning any races. A McLaren F1 is more akin to what the original Bugatti’s…

Not very Civic of them to lie about their sales Accord.  I’m sure the lawsuit will provide some Insight.

1. they frequently smell terrible 2. although they are generally well maintained if they’ve been in an accident they are probably not 100% back to original spec 3. they are usually the lowest spec available of that model. 4. Any soft mounts or bushings are probably severely worn but will still pass inspection so they…

Oh people definitely hated the BMW SMG’s.  Look at reviews for automatic E46's at the time.  They were awful.

If I know Teamsters it takes a lot to get them to move off anything.

But Miller High Life is the Champagne of beers.
