Yea it seems that automakers realize that no one buys wagons so why not make them price for the few hundred they might sell a year.

Check out HSRmotors.com (where I bought my drive unit and controller), or keep an eye on Copart for a salvage Tesla. I initially considered buying a salvage Tesla and recouping some money by selling the batteries and onboard charger. The batteries alone make up about 40% of salvage value.

we’ve gotten so spoiled...that’s less than half-second slower than an E36 M3!

I don’t know about concerning - their strategy seems to make them (a) a lot of money and (b) a lot of loyal customers (with (b) leading to the potential for more (a) in the future).

Pickups are the next Harley Davidson’s. Boomers don’t need/can’t ride motorcycles anymore, but they still think they need a truck. Once they don’t or can’t drive, all hell is going to break loose in the automotive sector. Us millennial’s simply can’t afford a pickup truck. Unless the baby boomers realize, shit, if we

You’re right, it’s definitely not an enthusiast’s car. If they were going to make an enthusiast spec, though, I would hope it would be based on the Impreza rather than the Crosstrek - it’s got almost 6" of ground clearance already, which is already a hair more than the current WRX. The new platform is pretty damn

It is weird when a top of the line half ton truck is priced way above the national average income holders budget. I see how this country has an average of $135,000 in debt per household.

Wow. I just popped a wheelie by accident too. And it’s definitely a slapper.

The CRV system is not able to transfer enough power to the rear wheels and it barely functions under heavy snow or mud conditions. It’s great for dry and wet traction, but the first snow storm I encountered did not impress me. It takes good throttle control to work and did not offer a much larger gain in traction. But

Wow, this is like a Crosstour’s long lost father

We seriously considered one of these this year - importable now in Canada. But it seemed the Spike is only a five passenger-but has all the cool “modes”. The sister Mobilio is seven. But the back two seats are smaller than a ham sandwich. And it’s ugly like a melted eight-bit crayfish.

The Honda Mobilio Spike. A seven-seat vehicle that gets over 40 miles to the gallon without being a kei car.

All we are is cropdust in the wind?

Says you. Some of us are closer to farts.

All we are is rust in the wind.

I live in Detroit so I assume everyone with a 300 is Detroit poor, lol.

heres the thing, *pushes up glasses* - a society as advanced as Wakanda would not even have a need for cars, would they not have a super amazing public transportation option?

I have infinite stars to give to those who protest the Real People ads from Chevy and Toyota. I’m an extremely laid back person in general, yet every time I see a Chevy ad talking about JD Powers to a group of photogenic morons I want to burn my TV in a volcano.

Average? No. But if I have learned anything from real people not actors, its that the average person is dumb.

That was a serious blowing away. The age of the internal combustion engine as the powerplant of fast cars is ending.
