Taught me a new word. Thanks! Or “tanks,” if we’re following the pun theme. Haha

Indeed it is. Lexus has a pretty large program, in fact.

What would cause someone to be so radishcal? Regarding whether he lives or not, I guess it’s safe to assume he doesn’t carrot all.

I replied to Mugen Power about this exact thing. I never said that the reps are forged. I simply stated that *if* a wheel is forged, it shouldn’t matter whether it’s a “rep” or a brand that everyone knows like BBS with the possible exception of paint quality. I have no idea what wheel construction he’s running and…

I totally get that, that’s why I was saying that as long as the construction is the same, it shouldn’t matter with the possible exception of paint quality. The wheels I have on my car are low-pressure cast and are pretty light considering the size and other wheels available for my car. They are not a well-known brand…

Hahaha, I keep track of the day I got my car as my anniversary. Usually don’t forget that... have almost forgotten the lady’s birthday. Oops.

I really don’t know... if the construction is solid, I don’t see the big deal about “reps”... they are all aftermarket, after all. A forged wheel is a forged wheel. Only difference might be paint quality.

Awesome to hear :) thanks for letting me know. Another thing that I always found cool is that GM has had automatic lights for a while. My buddy’s old ‘00 Tracker (base model) had automatic lights standard and they’re just now starting to catch on with other companies.

Some cars do it automatically when they are in an accident. I didn’t think the Cobalt has this feature but I know for sure my wife’s Jetta and I believe my GTI do it automatically. If in an accident, the doors unlock, the fuel delivery is cut off, and the hazards come on to avoid being rammed again or an accidental…

I believe that is time to travel 60 feet so you’re correct, that is not 0-60 time.

In the first video, the blue Tesla (second one running) looked like it had Continentals. I thought they were Michelins too but I guess you can get different tires?

Makes sense! Kind of what I expected since the GTO is I guess a bit more purpose-built for it. How is the auto in the SS? Is it sluggish or does it keep up pretty well and know what gear it’s supposed to be in?

OH!!! That makes sense, to a degree. Let me explain (and embarrass myself in the meantime):

About 4 years ago, I found a road that led to the river down a little canyon-like area and finishes off under a tunnel after which you show up at a picnic area and it is absolutely awesome. Dumb younger me figured, hey, I’m a…

Haha, that guy is more hardcore than I probably ever will be XD

Also, if you can manage to get it, perhaps a more important metric like 30-60 mph would be nice to have. After all, most highway merges (at least around me) require way more grunt there than anywhere else.

THANK YOU!!! This is what I hate about most reviews. I, admittedly, do like 0-60 times since it’s kind of easy to compare cars in a way that’s known to me but how it behaves when roads are bumpy or have potholes all over is way more important to know than the fact that car A understeers just a bit more than car B…

Most definitely. Which do you find more fun to drive, the GTO or the SS? Both look like they would be a blast.

Good to hear! My only experience with Nittos were on my friends late-90's diesel Ram and not only was the truck loud but my goodness were those tires noisy. Not sure if it was the type of tire (since they weren’t performance or anything) but you couldn’t hear someone sitting next to you inside the cab and with the…

Awesome to hear! My car seems to wear out rear tires in a funky way and since it’s happened to every set of tires I’ve owned, I don’t blame the tires anymore. They seem to cup and get wavy, if that makes any sense, on the inside of the tires. I rotate them every 5,000 miles but it seems to happen worse with whichever…
