The US has reasonable standards for headlights. The real issue is that a lot of people don’t care enough to adjust their headlights properly or are ignorantly and/or deliberately using illegal bulbs in their cars. The resulting light is bright but without proper cutoff, which is the real problem. I take pride in…

Weren’t there a number of people who loaned their cars to the franchise that got their cars back with unexpected damage?  

K-On and Initial D.  A man of culture.

So $70k for the car, and $80k for mandatory driving school and money to cover initial damages to others?

1990-1992 Ford Probe GT did the same. The first year 89 did not, however. The clean mild revision in 90 started it.

I kind of prefer it over the old design. It’s simple and straightforward. I just wonder how many people have taken a set against it because supposedly trump came up with it.

Just a tip for people. Make an effort to switch to rechargeable NiMH batteries when possible. Eneloop batteries have the best reputation as do Ikea’s LADDA branded ones. Amazon Basics are fine too.

Nice.  Still no legal option then.  :)

“this hobby is illogical and responsible, yet I am addicted to it.”

I think maybe the difference is because the FQ-440 is tunee by an aftermarket in Europe (HKS I believe) but is supported UK Mitsu dealers while AMG is essentially a true factory car. I get the point you’re making though, there isn’t anything really magical about 400+ crank hp from 2 liters. I’m running 435 whp on my…

Well yea. If you’re a pro driver on a rally circuit or don’t intend to keep your car longer than a year or so. If you want to launch, get a car with a warrantied launch control and leave the poor Evo alone.  Of course it’s your car, do what you want with it, I intend to keep mine a very long Time.

I have my own issues with their style, but generally the positives outweigh the negatives.  Obviously if you want *real* info you look up a longer, more thorough documentary, but their video is a decent primer.

It’s been a while, but I recall that the Youtube channel Donut Media had a pretty good “everything you need to know” video on the Evo last year.

Dreams of Evo 9, posts a picture of the Evo 8.

The worst Timeline would involve violent race wars and lynchings. With the fan getting banned indefinitely this isn’t all that bad but could certainly see a lot of improvement and that sign can be relegated to being just a dumb punching game again.

“If I open the hood, why am I presented with another hood?” It’s the tragedy of the modern car and people who no longer want to get involved, using the “well it’s a modern car” excuse.

Can’t replicate factory warranty. Easily worth $30k. /s

An actually sensible comment getting COTD?  Something’s wrong...

The winner of this round of “What Car Should I Buy?”

I really wanted to make the point that nowadays all cars are porkers in general but yes, it’s not unreasonable when actually compared to cars in its segment, given that it’s also one of the biggest of that class.
