While I agree with your sentiment, this won’t be the first car with a central gauge/speedo position. My wife had an Ion and mentioned you get used to it fairly quickly. I would have liked to seen a heads up display though.

Got a point with Electrik, and while MotorTrend has some entertaining content, I fins their favoritism usually goes to whichever brand just bought a two page advertisement, so I take all of their reviews with a bucket of salt.

Probably, crap driver combined with a nearly 5000lb crazy instant torque RWD car seems like a recipe for tire roasting.

Read a story like that on r/ Just rolled in to the shop. Lady thought because it’s a Mercedes it never needed an oil change -_-

Hybrids will still be an option, just no diesel and gas only.

And they’ve got plans to stop using coal.

That’s what gets me when people compare it to other car manufactures, Tesla is far more diverse. It’s not better or worse but it’s not the same.

Toyota has their own option in the running that is the new Prius. God that thing, what happened to sleek japanese styling?

And if what I’ve read on the internet is to believed, the origin of the name for a certain magazine.

What no Playboy? The name was eventually used for a very well known magazine, but rumor is the car company is were it got the name.

Ugh, I miss mine so much. It never quite ran right and the floor was starting to rot away but it was just so special compared to the Miata I replaced it with. Revvier, more interesting looking, rarer, just a cool little car. I just couldn’t justify keeping it, just blew a headgasket too and I didn’t have the space,…

Definitely known to be twitchy, midengine light weight can do that, but they don’t have a ton of power so the owner was probably really pushing.

Very true, and he has done a lot for Western NY where I live so it’s not all bad. Your assessment is spot on.

Do you recall what our other option was? I’m not a huge fan of Cuomo despite being a democrat because there’s just so much shady shit surrounding him but it’s like picking Trump or Clinton in our last vote, the other option was a racist homophobe.

You can find Turbo 996's around $30k nowadays. Pretty sure that’d be tough to beat for the money, and no IMS to worry about. Sure probably high mileage but honestly you could go more ”stupid” than a high mileage Porsche

This is the same thing I’ve been running in to...

I’ve never been a big fan of GM myself, and other than the Corvette and new Camaro, feel the same way. I will say that there has been a major cultural push here, having worked at GM for a year now it’s interesting to listen to the stories of the old guys and seeing how we operate today. It’s not just appearances,…

My thought instantly as well. Just no.

I ran cross country as a teen and my family had a farm. If I wasn’t running I was hauling hay and wrangling animals, my metabolism was freakish and so I only weighed 150 lbs at 6' tall. Fat percentage was around 3.5%. I could eat literally anything and practically as much as I wanted, like whole pizzas with wings and…

Just picked an 01 up for cheap with 180K on it. My mechanic was floored that it was still in such great condition, no leaks and just needed the usual brakes and tires. Good fun with better suspension than a comparable BMW. Plus when you want to a 2JZ-GTE (maybe with a manual trans?) swap is pretty straight forward, so…
