lol Flares will do a LOT of good against a radar guided missile...

(radar missile took out MH17)

NOPE. lol. You tried evading a missile in a flight sim lately?
Shit is hard, bro. Airliners today are probably very capable handlers, but you can only make a bus handle so well... a 40' bus will never be a Miata, if that makes sense.
No chaff, flares, etc would've helped much against a radar-guided missile like this.

These boys will be lucky to live another 60 years.

The original challenger and Charger barely have attained Icon status themselves. The new Challenger will be nothing more than Main St 50's Carshow Candy with the occasional drag strip. Snooze.

You know, I've heard it both ways. But both versions express the same sentiment. Zero fucks will be given if I had a Challenger Hellcat. But I would give an innumberable quantity of fucks if I had a Grumman Hellcat.

True.
It'd also be bad if I lost my shit mid-flight, too.

I've flown (in) a '46 Stearman biplane but didn't opt for the Hellcat.
I am sure I missed out, but the Stearman's acrobatics weren't exactly what you'd call "disappointing" either.

There's a place at Fullerton Airport I drive by all the time called Air Combat USA

Grumman. I could give a shit if I had a Challenger. But if I had a Grumman Hellcat please believe I would lose my collective shit.

Can't you also do this with a current Ford Transit?

It isn't technically a "sports car"... but I leave that to bodystyle class only.

My 87 AE86 SR5 notch got well over 30mpg and I think you're missing what I'm saying about the interior. There's effort there in design and the materials the older toyotas not found in current productions models. the plastics were decent. It felt better in your hands.

Okay, since you asked, a Fiesta ST. 27 city. 33+hwy. With more torque. 220wtq of it. More cargo space. Room for 4 passengers, really! Equal if not superior handling (stock vs stock, not stock ST vs FRS with coilovers). Faster around a track, too. I really wanted to be able to justify buying an FR-S or BRZ but it falls

no dude, needs a Nismo Intake and Exhaust system, good for a whopping 9hp just like the JUKE Nismo. lol

no, No, NO! Needs more Panasport. What the hell is that shit masquerading as wheels on there?

Then you must be doing something different or don't live in SoCal because I get reports of the cars getting 17-22, occasionally 25 from the people I know that have these.
You'd figure, a naturally aspirated 2.0L, lightweight car would get 24-25 city and 30 hwy. Or if not at least make better torque. You can't be both

No Fiesta ST? no buy.

1999-00 V70Rs do not have a Haldex AWD system and have a system that is solely mechanical. The Angle Gear - or transfer case - or whatever name you want to call the part that sends power from the transmission to the rear wheels. I assure you, there is a seal where the center driveshaft goes into it. The turbo's right

Yes, I have driven one, and was thoroughly unimpressed. My delightfully offensive maroon with brown interior 87 SR5 notch was more fun, I promise you. And the interior in the 86 was better.
I REALLY wanted the FR-S to be the second coming of christ, but it falls short in too many other areas to make up for what it does

FWIW: The turbo kept cooking the angle gear's rear seal, seal would get hot, pop out, angle gear would proceed to empty itself then let you know once it was too late with horrible noises.

When you have two "bad ones" back to back it's pretty hard to maintain a favorable opinion

Proving my point is that in my opinion, the FR-S and BRZ are sold incomplete as "starter kits" that you must finish yourself after buying it.

The car needed another 30-40lb/ft to be as good as it ought to be (which is to say as fun as an original AE86). Why Subaru is so dead set against it (aside from fear of
