It certainly is unique especially in that great shade of blue. There is something to be said about a performance car you can just drive and have fun in without worrying about decreasing its value due to mileage. I have been babying an excellent condition 2002 M5 for three years now and am tempted to go out and pick up…

The Neon will always be remembered as an economy car with some great performance potential between the ACR and the crazy tunable SRT4s. My only experience with a Neon was a friend who bought a few years old one in college that had already started to disintegrate but I certainly appreciate any well-kept ACRs and SRT4s.
Bradley, you should win some sort of award for having one of the cleanest and best-sorted Neons in present day. That isn’t saying much, as at least 75% of the cars produced were either totaled or rusted and/or vibrated themselves into dust but seriously, that is one clean and good condition car you have right there.
Yeah, I had a similar experience last year when I got a whooping 4% increase but my boss is a decent guy and well aware that it was significantly less than inflation so he was more apologetic than anything (he wasn’t gaslighting like your boss clearly was). The first year of the pandemic lead to a 1% increase which is…
Every time I see a 997 that is a reasonable price, I get my hopes up only to find that it is an automatic. I have seen the same car (year, miles, condition) that is $70K with a 6MT go for $50K with the tiptronic or even the later PDK versions.
That pick of the DGM Legacy GT makes me miss my spec.B. I cleared the headlights, installed a JDM STi sport grill, and it sat a bit lower but that was a pretty close pic. If only I could find an unmodified one in the used car market.
Despite having a fairly long, sloped driveway, I like getting a few extra steps in on recycling days and have never thought it was a bad thing. With that said, I pay an extra $5/month to my garbage removal company to come down my driveway and pick up my trash.
I feel the exact same way. The Cybertruck reminds me of the “futuristic” technology featured in 80's flicks like Robot Jox and Total Recall and pretty much all the European wedge concept cars of the 80's. I also can’t help but think of early polygon car models from video games of the early to mid nineties including…
I had the same issue at my hotel in Malaga. Even with the Astra, I had to do three-point-turns at the bottom of every ramp and was surprised that the car didn’t scrape or bottom out at each ramp due to the extremely steep angle. The first time was a bit tricky but after that, it got easier each time.
I can’t tell you how many racist and/or homophobic 12-25 year old shitstains I have to mute and report on a regular basis while I play GTAV Online due to them constantly dropping N-bombs and the F word (not Fuck, the other one).
Maybe Jayofthedamned is assuming most Gran Turismo players take Ambien prior to playing...
It has been a great car and perfect for our needs. On days where I work from home, I can make two round trips to my kid’s school without using any gas and even during my 80ish mile commute, I am able to average around 55 mpg-e which is great for a big, comfortable, heavy (2.5 tons) luxury car. I went into it thinking…
I was hoping they would include the larger battery and turbo-6 from the Panamera and create an S7 PHEV. Oh well...
That’s exactly what I am talking about. They have at least discontinued the PHEV A7 but both cars, and I believe the A8 were produced with the PHEV drivetrain for 2ish years. Porsche even has a PHEV Panamera, albeit with a V6 instead of the I4 in the A7.
I went into my most recent car acquisition about a year into the pandemic thinking I was going to wind up with a compact sedan or SUV like an A5 or Macan but after driving a few models and learning that there were few, if any discounts to be had, I noticed that I could step up to a much nicer car like the A7 if I went…
Yes, I understand that. Driving through most of Southern Spain and taking the drain to Madrid showed me how open and spread out things are outside of the major cities. An SUV, or even a small wagon with a bit more comfort and grunt would have been appreciated on the motorways for our 2-3 hour stints between cities. But…
I just picked up four airtags to place in our checked bags for a recent trip to Spain and can’t recommend them (or any other GPS-tracking tag devices) enough for travelers, especially those who travel with their pups in cargo. Aside from irritating the hell out of my wife by providing play-by-play updates on the…
I was just in Spain and had a terrible Opel Astra ST as a rental but it only cost me $40 per day. I could have spring for a 5-series or x4 for about twice the price but was glad I didn’t when I had to weave through the narrow streets of the historical part of Granada. There were seriously streets where I had an inch…
Unless you are trying to make a sleeper drag racer with significant upgrades, thing is ugly as hell and underpowered. The American cars from the malaise era through the 80's were mostly terrible looking and this one is no exception.
