Porsche selling sedans and SUVs and making most of their money from these sales.

It also came out 1987 but it was also about a completely different approach.

Having taken cross-country road trips in both auto's and manuals, there's no difference. Sure in the city it helps but once you're at speed, you don't have to change gears so you're back to the long, boring drive.

One of the only things the Smart ForTwo has going for it is its small size for city parking, otherwise your $13k or so would be much better spent on a Versa or a Yaris.

Challenger Hellcat (or better yet the Charger Hellcat as DD) + GTR (read they're available for $90k right now) + Triumph Daytona 675R (slightly modded at 14.5k) + Ducati Streetfighter 848 (13.5k) + Ducati 899 Panigale (15.3k) = 3k over the price of a Bentley Continental and you have a garage you won't get tired of.

Bottom right looks like a riced-out Civic

Speeding isn't necessarily about driving faster than the posted limit. Speeding is driving faster than the conditions allow. Should you be driving 55 and everyone is driving 35, you're now speeding and driving dangerously. Yes, you can react to an accident differently at 55 as opposed to 80+ but if an animal, person,…

This appears to come from some British Commonwealth territory, as they're driving on the wrong side of the street and the street signage is English. I's not clear exactly why the motorcyclist crossed the double-yellow and ended up the world's worst airplane, but he did. And, incredibly, wasn't injured at all.

I never said you can't hold gears in a DSG. Was just stating one of the things I like with manual. It just depends on car to car. If I was looking at something larger, say a 5 series, I would opt for a DSG or Auto as those are cruising cars. Something like the GTI and R are more of hot hatches and meant to be more fun

For the times I like to throw the car through turns or hold gear right when I need it. Plus I can leave it in 6th gear and still accelerate without dropping a gear or two and using up more fuel. then again, I didn't buy the R for gas savings. I drove both for a test drive and the DSG just doesn't give you the same…

It's still not the same. Plus the GTI and R have enough power to be in high gears on the highway so no need to shift unless you need to. I generally keep my R in 6th after 55mph unless I want to have fun. Also, the clutch is so light and smooth that it doesn't tire out your leg from being stuck in traffic, even when…

Secret of Mana, I always play this every once in a while

You must of had a lemon. M's and that VK45 are really reliable. only issue with the first M45 and the last Q45 is finding parts since it had such a specific suspension set up.

I generally buy slightly used cars now. They're still within warranty period and can be purchased with an extended warranty for peace of mind for thousands off of the price of a brand new car. Now if it's new vs very old, I would generally go for the new unless you have a backup car or are looking at a car for a…

Depending on state, there is a used car lemon law as well

You might have people that are stuck in those positions due to life or they're just starting out their career. If the median income for families is at ~$51k per year, then there are families that are making less than that. Living in a city and making 35k may mean you're possibly on the lazier side but if you're in the…

You shouldn't feel bad it. You worked hard, the rest are just jealous and want to make you feel bad. back in high school, close to my final year, I bought an Eclipse. Had people tell me that it must be so nice of parents buying me a car and I told them that I have a job, saw a car I wanted, and bought it and maybe…

Blind spot monitoring systems make you a safer, more aware driver on the highway and in the city. Some have a light that illuminates on the mirror to let you know if a car is in your blind spot, and some have an additional, angled mirror to augment your view behind. Both are equally useful.

Sadly I'm out of luck. my Klipsch center channel is too wide for it. I the center support could be adjusted, it would be perfect.

Not to mention that there's no room for a center speaker for surround sound
