I think the similarity is pretty tenuous - the alfa’s clean and well defined, the genesis vid is kinda hollow and “hooty”.

I used to LOVE the sound of VQ’s before the G35/350z ruined them. That artificial hooting exhaust sound was total hot garbage from the beginning. The induction sound in my maximas was glorious, the exhaust was pretty decent, but once the G35 came out everyone just wanted to emulate that “farting into a toilet paper…

I use emotional support valium on flights.

Right on - I think I’m just not the target demographic for reality TV in general. No problem with drag queens, props to the amount of work they put into it.

Why is this show so popular?

Been a batcyclist for years - whenever I batcycle I wear batplugs under my bathelmet and find I arrive at my batstination less fatigued. I’ve started wearing low nrr batplugs to the batmovies and I can still hear the batmovies just fine, but I can’t hear people talking or babies whinging. Definitely worth it.

Carplay does have it’s weaknesses (Apple Maps only? Stop trying to make Maps a thing, Apple.... and automatically switching to Apple Music whether you have any or not - yes, I know I bought the A-team theme from the Napoleon Dynamite soundtrack, that doesn’t mean I want to hear it every time I start my car) but it…

My friends and I flip over the receipt and list the last 4 digits of each card along with the $ amount - is there a more polite way to do it? We also each tip higher than usual for the extra server effort because splitting makes us feel like jerks.

put the trailers at the end.

What would make me go.. the second someone’s phone comes out in the theater, escort them out.

:scratch chest: :rub eyes: “MOOOOOOOM MY EYE IS ON FIRE”

Chicken Soup, Ginger Ale, and stay home from school and watch Star Trek:TNG reruns on TV (only thing on during the day that wasn’t soap operas).

There’s only one solution... Go back and stop it from happening

ahaha - I sad laughed because that’s exactly what I hated seeing when I came out to my car. Have you ever climbed to the driver’s seat through the hatch because you couldn’t get the door open enough to get in? VW doors are 12 feet long and 3 feet thick on the 2 doors :P

Incorrect - I’m aware, but it had no bearing on my observation that certain elements had a resemblance to the other 3 cars mentioned. The new one’s hips look a lot more like a 350z than the old alpine’s, and I maintain that the front end still looks more like a del sol than the old alpine. Just my opinion :shrug:

Oh for sure, it’s just on most cars they flow or blend a little better. With the alpine its almost like if you covered up all but the headlights and asked me what car, it looks VERY del sol. Same with the other bits - the toyobaru is probably the most tenuous visual cue, but the 350z badonkadonk is pretty strong.…

Yeah, it has thick buns like a corgi

Well, the 2 doors had doors roughly 18 yards long. Yes, you can technically fit into one of the “compact” spots here in So. Cal, but the doors are so long, and the armrest so deep, that you can’t open the door enough to get out :P

haha yeah the association must be different outside the us
