I agree, fuck him for what he did. Piece of shit. Also pediatric critical care? Fuck that too

LOL, me too though Civics and an MR2 Turbo, and I ran them at Willow Springs not at Sylmar street races. I really like the HB STis and I’ll never own one, ruined for me by every Subie dickwiggle that wanted to race my 135is and would get pissed if I ignored them or took the bait and beat em. In my 50's that shit gets…

A lot of people here sure don’t seem to know what old trucks cost these days.

CVT’s with paddle shifters are among the dumbest things in cars today. If you want gears to shift, get an automatic. If you want to select gears, get a manual. If you want to spend your commute in a soul-crushingly boring “premium” small sedan, get a CVT.

Fair point, and I drive my cars relatively hard, but I also perform regular maintenance and replace worn parts rather than waiting for broken parts, but the Venn Diagram for those who drive their cars hard and do all the maintenance is likely the other end ‘o the spectrum. Still not worried about a tune and a…

Your comment is technically correct (the best kind of correct), but in this context it is based on a faulty premise. As far as I know, no automotive manufacturer is using truly water-based paints. What they use are waterborne paints. It is more precisely referred to as a suspension than a solution. The paint is not…

For my pedantic moment of the day, water-based paints are solvent-based. Water is the solvent.

The chip and exhaust are the things he told you about.

ECU meddling plus resonator delete = asshat owner and abused car. No sale.

The 2JZ-GTE (from the last gen Supra) are the LS of the Japan. Factory block bottom ends are good for 800hp, do some work and you’re easily 1000+ reliably.

Reverse: 10-20 years ago, if I got a rental car, it would be a Pontiac. And it was going to suck dead rats through a straw. If I returned the car with the same number of interior parts as it had when I left the parking lot, it was a miracle. I know of at least 3 trips where I got back and found a knob or handle that…

They’ve gotta be trolling us with that.

“The MTA installed four cameras produced by Suzhou Huaqi Intelligent Technology on a G train last week.”

I can buy a new bike from anybody I like and have it shipped to my house with a minimum of fuss. Can’t say the same about a new car.

3rd Gear:

So we should keep pointless jobs around that make stuff more expensive for everyone else around, just to keep people employed? I mean, the service jobs that dealerships provide will still be there, along with other value add jobs; but why should we keep a full staff of people who only add cost and friction to the…

“The MTA struck a deal with the manufacturer to trial the cameras, at no cost...”

This seems like the car that fills a place for people who wanted the “big-whoosh” of the old WRX and Evo. There’s nothing wrong with these modern hot compacts, but the thing that made them fun is usually refined out.

a 300 some horsepower AWD hyper hatch for upper30s? Immediate thought is FoRS/Golf R opponent. cool.

I guess I’m alone here in thinking that $35k is actually a good price for a nice looking 300hp, 6 speed manual, widebody, hatchback, homologation, rwd biased-capable AWD, brand new car.... with a warranty.
