As a Volkswagen owner, I really don’t want to rely on electronics for visibility.

At the race track, hopefully the corner workers and ambulance respond a little more quickly than On-Star.

“And people who actively vote against their own interests.”

Why did I forget that that existed?

Was just about to say the same! Anyone who considers a B5 S4 to be reliable has not owned a B5 S4. I sold mine coming up on 120k with the turbo job in the near future. It was a money pit the entire time I owned it, one part failing after another.

like in the IS 350 post yesterday but comment updated a bit...

the facebook generation.. any little bit of “prove to us it will work properly” automatically means to them “your idea sucks, stop doing that crap immediately.”

You’d still be pulling the motor with old 2.7T. It’s not really a big deal. A pain in the ass, but not a technical challenge.

I’m seeing someone blaming the truck driver and adding that the Nissan driver isn’t exactly squeaky clean either. I don’t see any excuses. It doesn’t have to be black or white you know.

Kudos and thanks to you.

If that’s not brand loyalty, I don’t know what is.

Also cars that are a pain to work on. I could take apart every Japanese car I've owned with a 10mm, 14mm and 17mm socket. (Slight exaggeration)

There is something to be said for the uninformed masses.

Too important the Germany economy to let them lay off en masse

HOW COMFORTABLE IS IT

Everyone I know who owns one is so in debt that it’ll be literally impossible for them to be debt free in their lifetimes. I know there are a lot of people for whom this isn’t the case but in my area? Very very few people have that kind of money anymore and all of these newly married 20-25 year old couples with…

Are you kidding? Engine efficiency is dramatically better. You could replace that Model T’s 20 HP engine with a 100+HP Ford Ecoboost 3 cyl that would likely get around 50-60 MPG if it had to pull around a 1200 lb car. This isn’t pedantry, it’s just getting things right.

It’s not that it doesn’t exist, it’s just that Americans wouldn’t buy it.

I’m gonna keep with my recent comments and say Mercedes C-Class (or maybe E-Class).

“The Un regime is obsessed with portraying their government as an idyllic utopia, while most of their people still have limited access to drinking water, food and electricity.”

That is not how Korean names work. Their surname is Kim.
