As for you buyers out there, keep buying this thing so Miata keeps it alive. It’s one of the last affordable roadsters on sale today, and Mazda seems to want to keep the ND around for as long as they can

Public chargers are typically best used for road trips, and most daily-use charging should be done at home, if possible.

Yes, and a good chunk of the Euro engine options in all cars were diesels that most Americans didn’t want either.

Kia Soul is an excellent vehicle for say...someone who just graduated college and got their first job. It’s also one of the extremely limited number of vehicles that still starts under $20k. The old turbo model was even pretty quick.

Decades of putting bicycle lanes in the “door zone” doesn’t help. Better bicycle infrastructure separates bikes from cars to mutual benefit. Also I have seen far too many social media posts about deliberately dooring cyclists to believe these are all accidents.

The Dutch reach also works in just making sure no cars are coming too. It is amusing that other countries have/had the same problem and the solution was to focus on the source of the problem changing their behavior while proposing such things here often have vocal opposition. 

I don’t think Macan customers are particularly concerned about being about to do DIY repairs

Bring back the Fit. Also, something cheaper than the Fit.

I’ve had problems with Carplay in my wife’s Sportage, but also have problems with just it’s own functions, like changing stations or menus popping up when I do nothing, so I blame the car not Carplay. In my Jetta it works flawlessly.

No it’s completely because they want the subscription for updates. Otherwise they’d have an app that you can download map updates from your phone through bluetooth.

Why didn’t you goons buy the dang thing? Was it just too good?

I don’t understand how the Forester is transforming into an SUV. I thought it was one from the beginning.

Counterpoint to the Integra: maybe I just wanted the extra power of a Civic Si but with an automatic and a hatchback. That combination isn’t offered on the regular Civic.

Looks like someone used the European map of the US. 

Exactly. People are comparing this to the CR-Z like that’s a bad thing. No, the CR-Z wasn’t a rocketship and this isn’t likely to be, either, but the CR-Z was a solid, fun-to-drive commuter car that didn’t look like everything else on the road. Its biggest drawback was the disappointing mileage, but if the Prelude is

It’s without fail the Corvette, then their other car is some “luxurious” GM abortion that they take to church like a late 2000s Buick Lucerne (because Toyotas are “crap”):

this is a pretty thoroughly mid-sized car, not to mention 2.5 tons. Automotive journalists should at least try to keep things in perspective.

Seemingly normal and pleasant people “isolated in their own little mobile temples of discontent”, as J.P. Donleavy put it long before we started using the term “road rage,” let their inner monster out of the dungeon pretty easily.

Don’t get mad that you’re stuck behind the sanitation truck

BOOOOOORTLES!!!
