He’s probably gaming the tight used car market a bit. As the owner of a 188k 1997 4 door I can say he better have a pretty fat list of updates. My friends just sold a 1995 on BAT for 17700 and we joked that the car was just about rebuilt given all of the major components that were updated. I just did both half shafts…

BMW has been working hard on synthetic noises in their ICE cars for a while now. This should work out well for them.

Remember a Ton of the Genesis engineering staff is from BMW //\/\ group. Looks like they got one or two marketing people too. Doesn’t look like Bangle was part of the Exodus.

You mean V60? V90? The V90 is kind of a boat, though if you need the space.  Like the V60. Wife couldn’t figure out the touchscreen. Plus she doesn’t want to have to sit down to get in a car...

Justa little exception the American truck, er, car manufacturers carved out for themselves a while back. The other issue is that they've conditioned Americans to but want to have to sit down to get in a car. SUVs let you slide in laterally. My wife refuses to ride in my old bmw 3 series because of ingress challenges.…

Was thinking of the GV70 when it comes out. This would be preferable, especially with the 2.5 motor.

They start launching their EVs next year. 

In faux CF.

Sun Ramen, if you can find it. Add slices of pork tenderloin and a cooked egg cut in half. 

It also offsets the pure saltiness of a pepperoni slice.

1) I generally can’t afford to have my car sit while I wait for a caliper rebuild. 2) my e36m caliper rebuild kits are about $20. This is now of a restoration, which I am guessing is close to new part pricing for my car. P car economics are a little different.

The key wound be good much torque these can handle. 

A fixed subsidy will result in a pile of bikes built to that price point. You’ll stifle innovation an different technologies. I have a commuter ebike I built (Bafang motor on a giant anthem) and my neighbor has a raleigh ebike that he used to commute on pre covid. The secret to using these bikes is not only the bikes,…

This is a decent device. My kids have had a couple which they use for school and general surfing. I prefer the form factor of the original Chromebook Plus, which was a little thinner. Also the 3x2 screen is nice for magazine reading. In an ETA where people dispose of phones every couple years often because of non…

I remember too many parking garages and streets in Southern spain where I was unnerved with a Toyota Corolla hatchI’d never want to drive anything bigger there.

Agreed. GM had enough brands and segmentation that they can offer a performance line of SUVs. Corvette is a product, not a brand. A 911 is a 911 Porsche also makes the 918 and taycan

Nak definitely made the nicest looking aftermarket head units, but they were to pricey and unreliable for me. I went through a couple changers before I broke down and went aftermarket head unit. I love my jvc with it's Bluetooth convenience. Colors match closely enough and it sounds a lot better than stock with afterma…

There what snow tires are for.

Finally. If your door locks get stuck and don't allow a key in (if your car is that old) it's best to leverage body heat by licking the door lock to defrost it.

Um... So you were ok with all of the other tongue in cheek comments in that reply?
