If you don’t carry rear seat passengers, there’s no added practicality. The compromises may be minor, but it seems like it would have less rigid body, and I hate having a B-pillar in exactly the wrong place when I’m looking for traffic approaching from the right. I don’t know why it bothers me so much, since the GTI…

So away game uniforms have essentially been “’color’ rush” all along?

Should you ever be in the position of needing to demolish a building in order to reuse a lot, check with local fire departments to see if they are interested in holding a live exercise. I’ve seen it done a couple of times.

But will it Segway? So he can haul his to Segway polo matches (as seen on Kathy Griffin’s My Life On the D-List when they were dating).

“I’m pretty sure throwing a gallon of black paint into a gallon of yellow paint would just leave you with... two gallons of black.”

Isn’t the headphone jack also an optical digital output on some of those devices?

The A5 Sportback has been available outside the US since 2009, “journalist” who doesn’t research. So has the S5, although the Sportback is limited to the 3.0l TSFI V6 while the Coupe and Cabriolet can be had the the 4.2l V8. 5-door saloons are common in Europe, especially the UK, and if US can’t have wagons instead…

No, the 83-87 models had the FE 2.0l, and the FET turbo in 86-87. I owned an 83 and a colleague had an 86 turbo; non-US were mostly F6 1.6l and F8 1.8l. The stroked F2 and F2T 2.2l was introduced for US model year 1988, and also got the SOHC 12v head; US FEs were all SOHC 8v. Wikipedia et al. often skimps the details…

Use at least 14 gauge extension for more than 50 ft and 12 gauge over 100 ft. 16 is OK less than 50 ft. And don’t plug two cords together, except maybe when they’re both the bigger (smaller number) gauge; resistance is inversely proportional to diameter and directly proportional to length, and the wrong cord will get v…

If you’re going more than 50 ft extension, you’ll need a 14 gauge cord at least. 16 will get hot (resistance inversely proportional to diameter) and may not permit full power.

135 is outside US market, I believe. 120 is correct for USA, but may have been purposely underrated. As I said above, Nissan’s 3.0l V6 was making 152hp without turbo that year.

No, that’s a 2.2l 12v. The 2.0l 8v turbo was 120hp in US trim, up from 90 w/o turbo and 83 w/2 bbl carb instead of FI. Now, Mazda may have intentionally underrated their turbos. The 1990 626GT with that 2.2l was tested by mags as the quickest Japanese sedan (actually a 5-door) and they speculated 40 or so more hp…

SOHC 8v, low compression, light boost. In my 1983 it made 83 hp with 2bbl carburetor. Fuel injection introduced along with the turbo made 90, normally aspirated. For comparison the 3.0l V6 in the 1987 Maxima SE made 152hp.

And there was a factory sunroof available; a steel slider, no tilt or “moon” roof. Either the dealer didn’t order it along with the Ginza-by-night instruments, or the customer wanted the glass or pop-up. The sunroof was a major reason I bought my 1983 626; the Accord didn’t have one (added for 1984 and Honda went…

“Sadly, I think this one pre-dates Mazda’s dalliance with oscillating center air vents”. No, you can see the switch and the “on” indicator between the center vents in the dash photo. My 1983 (first year of this body style) had them, as did my 1990 from the following generation. They departed when the 1993s were…

She was born a Stewart, of Scots descent. Her husband was from a well-to-do family that emigrated from Switzerland.

It seemed far more likely the G. W. Bush was going to declare that ongoing war and economic crisis was a bad time to hold elections, but the number of critical decisions he punted to the next administration seemed to indicate he was tired, and I think many Republicans were sure they would retain the presidency despite…

But will they still escort the visiting team, who probably haven’t offended them, to and from the airport at 20+ mph over the limit?

Then your premise is simply incorrect. Open-face sandwiches such as tuna melts, patty melts, and cream beef on toast have one piece of bread. Club sandwiches have three, and Dagwoods may have more. Meatball subs and hoagies in general are built in rolls or loaves that are not cut in two pieces (I have seen hoagies on…

Then your fallacy lies in the premise that “pockets” is not a subset of “sandwiches".
