Stereotypes ahead, learned from many years of dating, being married, and having a daughter — said wife also thoroughly enjoys AutoX, and is bitter-sweetly often a smidge faster than me:

What women want in a road car:
-Ease of ingress/egress
-Ease of loading/unloading kiddos in conjunction of a child-safety seat
-Adjustable…

Initial thoughts
I’m on the line, but from the look and idea, I’m inclined to say NP. Thinking further on the perceived value of a modded car with insufficient documentation and a better option in a 987 ‘S’ at the same price point, I say CP.

This was my jam — the Cheesy Gordita Crunch (I think) uses the same sauce, and for a LONG time it was also a secret menu item before coming back to its former glory.

I actually love, love, LOVE the 355, except for that stupid little face it makes, which is incongruent to the otherwise perfect design carried through the rest of the car.

I want *real* heritage Ford, not another half-baked paint option. Give us an Ivy Gold interior in a 2020 Mustang, we are overdue!

I’ll fuck up my own guitar, thank you.

Cigarette burns in the seat, fried chicken oil stained steering wheel with ring gouges, half-used pack of stale PallMalls in the back floor board, skirted by ashes, several used buttes, empty SlimJim wrappers, and at least three crushed Natty Light cans.

Not metallic, just a different white. Oxford White is the cooler white offered as standard, with Wimbledon White being much warmer / off-white. I love Wimbledon White and hate that it isn’t just a normal color. Ford plays on the heritage bit but making it and Kona Blue Metallic, special edition colors only in the…

Michigan’s foremost reductive metals investor.

The 360 fixed what was stylistically wrong about the 355, but still doesn’t look as well executed as the 348. All of them will likely leave you broken and poor due to absurd timing belt services.

S2k or Miata. Just like an ALFA Romeo, you haven’t lived a full automotive life unless you’ve owned one, or both.

Fast depreciation, but handsomely.

Asked a question above, but you answered it here. Blizzaks.

Holy shit, I’ve been trying to find this post for several days now. What tires were you running for winter mode?

My Triumph motorcycle had 180 miles of range per tank, and that is about perfect.

I love the designs of their socks, but they are too thin for me. I'm all about those squishy/fluffy cotton socks, like the Hanes classic, or Timberlands.

Mazda needs to make the 2.5T a standard option through the lineup. I can accept no manual due to how unpopular the option is, but you can’t keep claiming you are a serious option against peers that have twice the horsepower as an option.

I’ve found the 9 and 10-speed transmissions are a pain to live with due to how indecisive they are with stock calibrations (I know the Ford 10-speed responds well to reprogramming, but that is hardly a consideration for most buyers). 6 and 8-speed options seem okay. I like the gear spacing of 6 speed gearboxes. The ZF…

I drove a current model JCW while waiting for my brother’s 500 Abarth to go through PDI. It was absolutely lovely in all ways except the following:
