Lol these would be the perfect tool for road rage. Also could be rather creepy with some people out there.

Your ceramic pads don’t make dust? Lucky! Mine are nice and work much better than the non-ceramic ones I had on there before but man do they get dirty. My silver wheels are damn near black after a couple weeks between car washes.

Because what is better than one Miata? Two Miatas! I think having an LS swapped NA prepared for the track and a bone stock NB for daily driving would be ideal. Who needs practicality?

If the PT cruiser is a truck then so is this!

Yeah that is why I wonder if it is a market share reason or an engineering reason why there is no hatch.

Ahh right, they do have a regular impreza hatch still! But is the WRX and vanilla impreza still on the same platform? I thought the WRX was now a completely separate car.

Makes sense. Snow tires are so much fun and worth every penny. The biggest concern is really just the storage when you aren't using them. But yeah I can imagine AWD with snow tires would be amazing.

Well my Miata tank rarely makes it past 300 miles, especially if I am driving more spirtedly lol. And I know I plan on going on a drive North a bit just check some stuff out. And probably around Lake Ontario to get home, so I will definitely end up filling up. Gas is so cheap in NJ that $3 per gallon is expensive to…

Well it is Cadillac, they are typically going for that refined luxury image instead of WOW LOOK AT ME I HAVE MONEY.

Ahh yes, the ringland issue. And when you go older, the head gasket issue. I really liked the bug eyes but those are REALLY hard to find in decent condition. I still think the 04-05 model (blob eyes?) are the best ones out there in terms of reliability and can be found in decent shape. I guess those are the GDs…

This makes me happy. I saw $2.01 yesterday for regular so it will be under $2 shortly. I will be excited when I see premium under $2. I will drive thousands of miles (for fun) per year regardless of the cost, but its certainly nice to see it cheaper.

I don’t think Oil in the middle east is really a finite supply. Sure it is in the literal sense, but it is not going to run out any time soon.

I am going to enjoy that over Labor Day weekend when I drive up to Toronto. Hopefully the USD-CAD conversion will help more with the pricing.

You don’t need to have a high end car or turbo to require premium. My Miata needs premium fuel (sure its only a manufacturer recommendation, but that means required to me). I would imagine this has to do with compression ratios (VVT in the case of Mazda).

Yeah, summer tires will get going in the snow thanks to the AWD. But that AWD doesn’t help at all with the stopping or turning. Both of which are dependent on the tires.

Can you just request different tires? Sure it’s definitely better to have two sets, one winter and one summer, but sometimes that is not practical. A good set of all seasons would be fine if you aren’t going to track it or try to tackle blizzards.

Just go used, they are the same price as new but a couple years old lol. I don’t understand how Subarus hold their value so much.

The looks of this car remind me of a hot wheels car as well as a PT Cruiser. These are not good things!

Yup, I was wondering the same thing. $18k is a lot of used car money! But I would imagine that is mostly spent on cars that are 3-4 years old. Just think of how awesome of a car you could get for that kind of money!

My Miata is very comfortable on long trips. Nice, supportive seats and the top down the whole way. Suspension definitely abuses me a bit but that is what being young is for lol. I just enjoy the ~32 mpg I can get cruising along on the highway. But yeah I do compare this to my previous car which was a ‘99 Honda Civic…
