That's like saying if the CEO of Nike decided to say "All blacks deserve to be in jail" that it wouldn't cost the company anything because any sales impact would be "imaginary". You'd be "assuming" that black people (and others) would be offended and decide to boycott Nike. Extreme example, but sound using the same…

It has an impact on future sales of those seats because folks who normally would buy those premium seats may not do so if they figure they can possibly "self-upgrade" those seats for free. Ergo, it costs the company money to let people hop into those seats for free.

Which airlines do you fly? I regularly fly Virgin, Jetblue, Delta, United, and Alaska, and they all charge extra for their exit row seats, at least for the last few years.

How exactly is more legroom a false value?

It could cost the airline money in the future if other people who would buy the upgraded seats decide to avoid buying it if it means they can just grab one of those seats once the plane takes off.

Most domestic airlines charge extra for the emergency row seats because of the extra legroom those rows offer.

I don't think TC would have even helped. At the current temperature those summer tires are rock hard and have very little grip.

Brighton, CO has a high of 35F these days, so those summer tires are rock hard. Combine that with 707 horsepower and it's a recipe for disaster.

I think it's safe to say he doesn't have a CAI (or if he does, he didn't make it much farther down the road).

I prefer to think of it as a hatchback with a lift kit.

A more useful and realistic comparison would have the Forester wearing all-seasons. I don't even think summer tires are an option from the factory, so I'm not sure why anyone would realistically be putting them on that car in the first place. To conclude AWD doesn't matter based on this example is foolhardy; otherwise…

Some places are valet only.

That's what I thought too. It looks good...until you realize that it feels like the inside of one of those Tonka toys.

I have an STi, and the cheap hard plastics cause it to rattle like a mofo. It gets pretty old fast, unless you're under 25.

Wait, where was the magic trick? All I saw was someone solving a Rubik's cube...it's not particularly magical considering it's an algorithmic based process...

Many people would say the Miata is a sports car, but not a performance car.
