I would buy a Crosstrek TODAY if it was offered with the WRX drivetrain. 

Ford won’t sell you a Performance Pack Mustang droptop, but you can get add the 1LE package to any trim Camaro with an open roof. It’s odd, I’d think a PP convertible Ecoboost would print money for Ford.

That’s what has me curious... I don’t have dyno sheets to verify, but my understanding is that the Coyote has a bit more meat under the curve but it just doesn’t have the top end.

Huh. If I could get that for around $25k (which seems entirely reasonable to me given that the Fiesta ST was attainable for $20k), in a good color, with a manual and a proper LSD... that’d be a compelling replacement for my speed3.

I’m curious how this will compare laptime-wise against the GT350 non-R.  Elsewhere I’ve seen this postured as the GT350 replacement, not the Bullitt replacement, and while it’s 40hp down, I’m curious how meaningful those 40 horses are in the real world.

If you took the badges off, is there anyone who could identify this was a Mitsubishi?

Well, it’s not like it was around long enough to accrue any products.  IIRC, it was supposed to get two more models, a mid-size coupe (likely the rumored Barracuda), and a hot compact in line with the previous SRT-4s.

If you think this is going away just because the world is shifting to electrics, you’re kidding yourself. Teslas are already putting down similar numbers, and the Hummer EV is s’posedly getting 4-digit horsepower in top trim.

Hey, I’m under 50 and Dancin’ in the Dark was my karaoke go-to.

Source code is written work, just like a novel. Why would one fall under copyright, and the other not?

Neutral: If EVs are good for the country, then the country should create appropriate infrastructure for EVs. It shouldn’t “pick favorites” between companies, that should be handled by {spooky libertarian voice}the freeee hand of the maaarket.{/voice}

Software should be copyrighted, it shouldn’t be patented.

-Were- I to get a 4Runner, I would specifically be looking for a two-door manual. That said, the whole ‘80s Toyota market is Tesla-stock-level overvalued. If that were a Pathfinder or Trooper, people would balk at half the price.

I don’t think the interior was swapped per se. The truck isn’t a ‘79 with Raptor parts swapped into it, it’s a Raptor that had the skin of a ‘79 grafted on.

I’m curious to know what’s different enough about their X-pipe to warrant a patent.  X-pipes have been used in aftermarket exhaust for decades.

Just looked into that, it’s still 3600+ lbs (assuming it’s not vaporware).

Tesla Roadster is certainly interesting, but likely way out of my budget.

At what point do people just stop caring about 0-60 times for EVs?

Or what about parallel parking

I clicked this thinking the only thing that would surprise me is if it had a Ford engine under the hood.
