No, taxation is not illegal because society, through its elected representatives, have decided that certain costs are to be borne by society as a whole. Thus, taxes.

I’d be all fine with that if we hadn’t seen so god damned many cases of Porsche drivers destroying other racer’s chances under very similar circumstances (bad passes spinning the driver in front).

I can answer re: auto racing: there aren’t more women because women aren’t interested in racing.

I know. If only the other race teams had been allowed to hire women drivers OHWAITLOL.

Injury waivers are not magic bullets that dismiss liability. It’s depressing that people actually think they are.

Does Daytona not have this, or is our society so screwed up that it doesn’t matter where he signed it or not? Or am I totally missing how lawsuits work?

I’m no lawyer, but...

If they are promoting accidents as part of the fun, and they are allowed that seems like begging for a lawsuit.

No, the GT dive bombed into that corner. You brake that late, you should expect a messy exit. Especially when you’re trying to cut off the car in front of you and their line directly intersects with yours.

Now it’s a gimmick because some dude was an idiot and crashed? It just sets up the dampers and drive distribution ideally to drift, it’s not a miracle button that keeps people on the road no matter what.

Some of them are degreed engineers. Ryan Newman for example. So....

Have you priced factory wheels? Add in the tires, and yea, $4k per car is entirely plausible. Especially for the 22's. When I had a car that took strange tires, it was easy to get into $1300 for a set of just the tires.

And you’d basically have to redesign the entire sensor and avionics suite to do it.

I realize that manufacturers have multiple plants, and multiple parts suppliers, and revisions to parts, and they learn from early manufacturing issues. They’re are so many things that can affect a car’s reliability. The funny thing is, the parts suppliers make parts for all manufacturers, Toyota doesn’t make all of…

I once owned a 2006 Honda Accord, it was hideously unreliable. I probably would buy another Honda though, because I realize judgement cannot be made from one experience, or anecdotal evidence.

200,000 average over 12 Toyotas? That’s 2.4 million miles. At the average of 12,000 miles per year, that’s 200 years of driving. Even at 25,000 miles per year, that’s 96 years of driving. Even driving at 55 mph straight through, its 1818.2 days straight of driving, or just shy of 5 years. Even if you spread that…

Thats is wildly inaccurate. VWs aren’t the most reliable but they aren’t at the bottom either. You should actually look at the comparison charts you keep telling other people to look at.

Yes, a car’s perceived reliability is based largely on stereotypes. Consumer Reports et al. report all complaints in their reliability studies, not just mechanical failures, so if an owner thinks the infotainment is slow, or whatever bullshit complaint they have, it gets reported. You’ll find cars with more amenities…

I’ve personly owned a 2007 GTI, a 2012 GTI, and a 2012 Beetle.

What you call public service others call propaganda or trolling.
