I always liked the hatchwagon ones cause they were a little more sleeper-ish.

My family drove to Florida a couple times when I was a kid. My mom kept telling us all about South Of The Border and when we finally got there, we were like ...really? You got excited for this?
They can't have people thinking their small trucks are small!
This car will make Ferrarris spontaneously combust out of sheer fear.
The ol' Chevy Tracker was the same way. Body on (tiny) frame, i-shit-you-not-actual-transfer-case with 4low. My mom had one that I hated because I wasn't into offroading. It was kind of craptastic on the highway, but they're supposed to be fantastic off road.
That makes sense, it probably is a regular hydraulic system just with an electric pump. And I'm sure everything flexible was hard as a rock, too.
I just took delivery of my car 3 weeks ago, and it barely cranked over this morning. The trans shifted kind of sloppy, the brakes were stiff, and the (electric!) steering was stiff, too.
The original Lexus SC was awesome, these were HIDEOUS.
I remember these things being ALL OVER THE PLACE in 2001. They were the hot new thing for a while, but then they made the exact same car for like 10 years and what had been retrocool was just dated.
I thought they looked cool when the first came out.
I also remember hearing that the first production run was wired totally wrong and had to be fixed when they got off the boat. Nobody had ever built cars in Northern Ireland before, and the workers kind of had no idea what they were doing.
I think I remember a Making The Video about this back when MTV still played videos!
It's only pretend? HOON AWAY!!
Can't catch everything.
I've had 3 Android phones. They're all really intuitive, widgets are great, and the turn-by-turn Google nav is AWESOME.
There was a thing I noticed in my car saying that Cadillac CUE is open-source.
The horses are nice and quaint and everything, but OH MY GOD THE CRAP IT'S EVERYWHERE
My car has this. It doesn't cancel out EVERYTHING like the headphones do. It just reduces highway tire/wind drone a little. You can still hear the engine like normal when you step on the happy pedal.
My dad had an X1/9 back in the day that he loved. He said the biggest problem was that it was a total pain to work on, and every time he drove it, there was more rust.
