Fix this and the exterior look and ill be wanting an MK8 golf R again. as it sits now i much prefer the MK7.5

It is like the people making decisions don’t read a car rag or follow industry trends.  Honda did this and had to put the volume knob back in.  

It was one of the main reasons I decided against a GTI when I test drove it last year. Just awful and dangerously distracting. To be fair, I’m sure you get used to it after driving it for like a year or so. 

So many times I had to tap on something, then tap it again, then miss the button, etc. etc.

Their capacitive buttons are terrible and unresponsive. 

Well, Rebel is a more user friendly off road based 2500.
Powerwagon is a purpose built off-road truck that comes standard with lockers front and rear, a 12k lb warn winch, a specialized front suspension that gives it HUGE front suspension articulation, especially when combined with the disconnecting front sway bar.…

I’m not $40k into a Travelall if the owner thinks it’s a Scout. 

It’s a lot of motor, and not a ton of power compared to other NA engines above 6 liters. But that’s because it’s an HD truck motor, and they’ve got a different set of functional requirements. That’s all we were pointing out, here.

It’s quick. Dumbass almost lost it though with the traction control off. 

.....and immediately voids his warranty. 

and a few quarter miles later, it’ll go from “break in” to “broken”.

Saw my first real life new Supra yesterday, a black GR.

Haha! Yes, adding a 100 horsepower motor to a 755 horsepower motor will result in an 855 horsepower engine. Whether you add the 100 hp by connecting an electric motor to the supercharger or by adding a 100hp electric motor directly to the crankshaft.

What!?!

The worst of all are low-profile runflat tires. The sidewalls might as well be cast iron. And wheels get destroyed constantly. My BMW 328i with 17" 45-series RFTs wasn’t awful, but the sport package cars on 18" or 19" were just completely attrocious. And replacing the OEM tires with non-RFT performance tires made it…

Wait they made a diesel Equinox? This alone is news to me.

Those tires are also constructed much differently than a street tire. This is an absurd comparison.

And as you said, these are mandated, not chosen by the teams for ultimate performance.

Big wheels are a necessity because people keep buying huge cars with huge wheel wells. Stop buying stupid and bad cars. 

Ug. I hate it. Steering wheels should be round, I’m sorry. You can argue in favor of a flat bottom wheel on an actual, honest to god racecar that doesn’t have an easily adjustable steering wheel angle/height, but on a road car when you can move the wheel up and down and probably in and out, it really doesn’t make…

Front looks better than the rear. Material quality will still be the same as a happy meal toy though.

I’t’s pretty apparent you don’t know the difference in a dynojet. Mustang Dyno will always read lower.
