except they do have the same issue, just not to the same extent. The GTI and WRX are typically horrible leases, but it just so happens that the Veloster N is brand spankin new with zero rebates/incentives and a high money factor, which seems to be common for newly released cars.

For specialty trims like this, it seems like it’s almost always better to buy. I fee like they always base the lease residual on the base model residual, when in fact most enthusiasts would (and do!) happily pay more for the specialty trim when buying used.

Looks like something I would have drawn when I was 10 years old while making “neeeeroooooow whoosh PEW PEW PEW” sounds.

Just got myself a Still Night Blue Accord Sport 2.0T. God I love the color. I always regretted not getting the blue Focus ST. I get lots of compliments on it, too. Man I’m seriously impressed with modern turbo cars. Went from the ST (turbo four) to a CTS wagon (NA V6) and now back to another turbo four. I just don’t…

Plus, it seems like half of you (not you, Tom!) are going about it the wrong way. You want the car you hand down to your kids to be of your era, and not something that’s already old that you just don’t connect with. Granted, I don’t know this guy’s age, but if he doesn’t have kids yet I imagine he’s under 40 at least…

To those saying their kids have activities after school and need to call home to get rides:

If it wasn’t for the grille I’d think it was a 5 year old base model Hyundai Santa Fe.

I may have missed it in the write-up ( I kinda speed read it) but make sure you protect the inside of all the panels you fixed. I know back when I did body work, when a rusty door or pickup bed was patched, you could spray a waxy substance in there to protect the back side. Can't for the life of me remember what it…

Neutral: The Pontiac Fiero.

Pretty reasonable, really. If you drive within the limits of your vehicle and conditions, all weather tires are just fine. My last car came with summer tires and I bought a second set of rims with winter tires, and it was a wonderful setup having both. But, if it had come with all seasons, I know I wouldn’t have…

Plus, how inconvenient would it be for the car to shit the bed when you need it?  My job now requires me to do a lot of driving, so I’m looking into something a bit more reliable and/or cheaper to maintain as I run into successive problems requiring service with my car.

college football stadiums, even demonstrably useless ones like Iowa State’s

(christ what is even happening that I just expect that now?)

He’s lucky to have that option.

It’s absolutely brilliant. The writing is just so good.

I’ve gotta be honest--I actually forgot the Series had started.  Baseball has just completely fallen out for me.

hot damn I’ve never seen that clip.  Brushes him away like i’d push away a finished dinner plate.

Some of these are just killing me because I definitely know I’ve seen them but can’t quite place them. Particularly 8, 9, and 10!

Okay, now that’s funny.  First time I’ve seen that.

ketchup, mayo, sweet relish, onion, garlic.  And I love the stuff, lol.  Basically all my favorite burger toppings mixed together, but in a different ratio, and minus tomato.
