I’m not saying they are currently behind the curve. They are just now pumping out actually competetive product, after Benz and BMW and VAG/Porsche DOMINATING the market for years. They have played a game of catch up. They’re not putting out anything new or revolutionary, they are putting out product that is…

I don’t even know what my ego has to do with this. I’m not only talking about the GTI when I say I agree overall cars have gotten “boring” but that’s just because there’s really nowhere else to go for those brands. They’ve sorta done it all already. The MkVII is about as exciting as you can make a new GTI right now…

At great cost? The performance package ran me what... $1500? It came with a diff, a little bump in power (not noticeable), and a spectacular brake upgrade.

The new GTI is better in every measurable way than the old one. It’s the biggest leap forward they’ve made in a long time since the MkV I’d say. It’s the reason I got rid of my 1 series and got one for myself.

It’s the same old shit with every car company that has made great cars for the past 10 years. Unless they get an electric performance line like BMW i cars, I don’t see anything revolutionary and excellent coming from companies like Mercedes, BMW, etc. (besides for the aforementioned “i” cars).

7 inches is well above average I thought.

How does this personally affect you in any way?

$1500 for illuminated door sills? My $30k GTI has illuminated door sills standard.

My grandpa asked my grandma to marry him on their second date. They’ve been happily married for 60 years and he still calls her his princess.

My fiancee has had no drive train problems in over 100k miles on her Touareg, and the Grand Cherokee can actually get pretty pricey too. But I don’t consider it a “glamor” SUV so I didn’t include it. Touareg is like the bridge from the Grand Cherokees to the Cayennes of the world.

You’d spend double (or more) on the Range Rover. If I could afford a Range Rover I’d get it over the Touareg 10/10 times!

Sorry, I didn’t mean to say that it’s like a Wrangler Rubicon or something but compared to most “glamorous” SUVs it’s a tank. I did not mean to offend the 4x4 internet gods.

My dad’s 991 Carrera 4S doesn’t have keyless entry. Sometimes German car companies are fucking strange. My $30k GTI comes standard with an option that my dad’s $120k Porsche (built by the company that makes my GTI) doesn’t have.

He could be white, yellow, brown, black, green, blue, purple, rainbow for all I care. That doesn’t make him anything but a fucking self-fellating piece of shit prick.

I don’t get how I’m masturbating to anything, but okay. If it turns you on to have a man masturbate on a gun so be it.

There is a large amount of guns in this country manufactured in Europe. Have you ever heard of Beretta? Sig Sauer? Click? Heckler and Koch? AEK? Yeah, none of those are made in America.

Haha I enjoy getting out and getting a beer. Bars tend to have good beers on tap that I can’t have at home (getting a pint of Pliny the Elder on tap makes me hard).

Damn. When I was at my peak in college all it took was a natty light and a cigarette. Girls that demand you buy them drink after drink are just using you for free drinks. This should be learned pretty much the first time you drink.

You basically mapped out and articulated exactly the sort of thing I would actually want. Training facilities that are free. Federally specified sets of safety standards. Requirement to show proficiency in these safety standards and I still think the requirement to continue education in not just gun safety but…

My Citroen Won’t Start is actually talking about disarming everyone with magical powers that take guns away from criminals too.
