For me, one of the most polarizing cars in recent memory (though around here maybe leaning unpopular): The Nissan Juke.

This is exactly what came to my mind when I saw this article/video, haha.

Yeah, I remember doing this way back with Counter-Strike when it was still a Half-Life mod! I specifically remember running it with the ASCII renderer for giggles.

I almost preordered this game because I read so much about the improvements made to the game from the first. I even had fun in the bit of the open beta that I found time to play, but man am I glad I didn’t.

My E90 335 is great, but even with one kid we’re finding its limits in terms of storage capacity and general practicality. So right now my “boring dream car” is a 2016+ Mazda CX-9. The latest redesign makes it one of the best-looking SUVs and based on everything I’ve read, it’s great to drive too.

Every fall when it’s early in the morning and I’m leaving to work, the low temperature/icy road warning chime rings and I get real scared.

Yeah, price is definitely a big factor for many. It may be tough to justify for some, but there’s definitely enough buyers it seems. I will say that in my experience though, from driving BMWs vs. other cars (and owning a nicely depreciated used one), the little differences add up to make a difference in the overall…

I’m not arguing that this car is a show of progress nor did I call it that.

“Only” 335HP? I find it difficult to be disappointed in that number (and I don’t think many around here would be, btw) considering that BMW’s M235/M240 make do with “only” 320-335HP, respectively, and run 0-60 in the mid-4 second range and quarter miles in the low-13 second range easily (one test I saw even put it at…

Yeah, similar experience here. If the matchmaking has any logic to it, I haven’t seen it.

I’m glad to hear that newer iterations are better, especially in the most recently redesigned model because I think it actually looks really sharp!

I had the opportunity to drive one in Hawaii as a rental for a week, and I agree. Couldn’t believe how bunker-like it was. I was able to try a convertible Mustang later during that trip and it was better in just about every way imaginable.

This times eleventy billion.

If this is in anticipation of them adding NES (and hopefully SNES and others too) virtual console to the Switch, then I’m fine with this!

:(

With a kid on the way, I’ve started to think about my potential options for if/when I’ll need something bigger to haul kids, family, etc. and their stuff. I’m glad that this will be an option! I actually like the way it looks.

tl;dr I spent a few days of my time and several hundred dollars between replacing the flat tire/repairing a damaged wheel, the cab, and the rental for a distant job interview that didn’t get me a job.

I had a similar experience in my VW GTI (now gone) that ended up being the last straw for me which led to me buying a set of winter tires for it, so I completely understand!
