They are optional tires on the Prius. Low-rolling resistance summer tires. Some sort of “Touring” package, I think.

The “Prius” tires on the Toyobaru are technically summer performance tires (Primacy HPs), but they suck.

I have kids and live in the snowbelt. I want the Miata.

There’s no reason not to want one of these. None. Whatever you can come up with against them: plain wrong.

The startup at the beginning of this gave me chills this morning.

“I own a 2CV, 2 DS’ and an SM.”

Seen here in its nocturnal habitat, the Bavaricus Maximus variety e39 awaits a new day. Rarely viewed in this form with its engine access point in the closed position, e39 has formed a symbiotic relationship with its fellow garage inhabitant, Wagonus Flexi. Ever eager to please, Flexi is all too happy to retrieve the…

I have noticed a pretty consistent pattern here in GJ among the younger, let’s say 30s and under, crowd. Those who were born or grew up here seem to talk down the area constantly and want to get out, while those who moved here from somewhere else, love it. Grass is always greener I suppose? I know I enjoy living here…

The more people that move to Grand Junction, the more it will improve. The place has turned into Clifton, AKA 8-Ball.

I kind of have to agree with you. I grew up in Denver, but I would choose Salt Lake if I had to go back to a bigger city. I’m in Grand Junction now, and despite what many think, I find it to be a great place to live. I live 5-10 minutes from the entrance to Colorado National Monument! It doesn’t get much better than…

The Toyota 2000GT would like to have a word with you about that....

Hah! FD is the most beautiful Japanese car of all time...

I can’t see crack pipe at all. One couldn’t reproduce this car for $8500 IMO.....you just need to find someone who wants a modified Gen 1 GTI. I personally would rather buy a clean stock example if one were still around.

Although understanding the theory of something usually is the first chapter of the boring part of learning, it really, really helps in this case. Very simple to do if you understand what's happening.

This is the best answer. In [insert current year], we should be able to learn how to drive a manual using a simulator.

Here’s how I learned stick:

Or, call up a driving school and ask if they do manual classes, find out its usually not that much and book a session. A good teacher and a competent student will have it in one session anyway.

Though, your version is a much better story than mine, especially where my follow up car was a foxbody and not a Ferrari.

I tried my best.

Acutally, these cars regularly go for above $100k. However, $700k for this is a far fetched idea, i can see it at $100k.
