I would have to add that having worked for an auto group that owns a large Toyota dealer and my brother having worked for them for 10 years in parts, modern Toyota’s are shit. Plain and simple. From the number of safety recalls that border on the insane to horrid reliability on newer models, they just don’t make a…

I dont own a diesel VW but I do own a 2009 GTI with a stage 2 from APR. This is my forth VW in around 12 years. This whole diesel thing does not deter me one bit from buying another one in a year or two.

Funny, none of those cars I would consider over another VW....

Exactly, no one was calling for this sort of response when GM was caught lying and hiding the fact that they knew about the issue with the iginition switches and as a result 143 people died over $0.37 per car... Then there is the whole Takata mess.

And people wonder why we dont get these sorts of things in the US for the most part...

After the last article I wrote an email to my Congressman who is on the Federal Budget Committee, Dave Brat. It detailed a lot of the info that Tyler has shared with us and some of my own opinions. I didn’t really expect to hear back from him with anything other than a letter back stating he would take the matter into…

So all that talk about speed not killing was...?

I had the pleasure of seeing the USS New York in port when she was berthed in Norfolk with my dad. He is retired navy and sometimes makes trips the base and the PX. You dont get a good idea of the size of these in pictures, they are huge but then you see the three Nimitz carriers three berths down hehe.

I have a feeling that we, the USDM, will never see this engine in a car....

I remember watching this episode the first time, me and my brother laughed so hard we had to pause it. Course once we started it again the laughing started again!

And look at what the last time we sent in “advisors” got us in a little country in south east Asia....

Holy shit....

Neither driver was in the right during this situation. The Ford Edge was passing other vehicles and did not merge right since there was another vehicle merging into traffic. The Chevy was closing on the Ford at a fair amount of speed and did not slow down when the Ford didnt merge back over, due to the merging traffic…

Not matter how cool and crazy these cars are they can not break the laws of physics. Physics always wins....physics will always win.

Dont care, rather have an E30 or E34 over a Camaro.

I was thinkng the same thing. In my area they put in traffic cams to get red light runners. Someone who had either some money or influence got popped once and now the cameras are there but they no longer work. Seems the same kinda thing happens now, office has to see it in order to issue a ticket.

Ill take one of the Bimmers behind the yellow truck.

I was thinking that same thing. GM killed people and knew they were doing it yet no criminal chargers have ever been filed...

My only moment of “what....?” while reading this was the power plant. While it maybe a good one I still dont understand why its not a 1.5L turbo and a 2.0L turbo? Give the 1.5 the 174HP but then give the 2.0 like 210HP. Then you could bump the SI up to 220HP or 230HP and the Type R up to north of 250HP.

That R34 is so illegal but oh so good....
