Showing up uninvited to a heated traffic stop and not following very simple commands?

It is disappointing to hear this. They seem to be making the same mistake they made with the CR-Z, completely misjudging the enthusiast attachment to the name, and delivering something completely unfulfilling.

Eh. The original Prelude wasn’t exactly a beast either. It was basically a 2-door Accord with 72 horsepower. It wasn’t really until late 3rd gen and arguably not ‘till the 4th gen that it started getting really interesting from a performance standpoint. Once it got VTEC it became seriously fun, especially since

This is what all of the major truck makers should have been doing instead of looking into EV’s.

I bought a ‘79 300TD that had sat in a barn for 20 years. Only 60K on it. It took a LOT of work to get it working “properly”, but I did just fire it up and drive it home with just a new battery. Actually made a profit on that car - one of very few where I did over the years.

OK, a couple of things here:

This is a silly list. Most of these are low volume vehicles that are expected to be low volume vehicles. A better look would be year-over-year sales or share of the segment they compete in. 

the g35/37 was very competitive for its era. the suspension was more squishy on the non S models but a g37s is a great 4 door sports car.

That was my pick as well - its even worse with the higher contrast colors. If your car looks like its been in an accident - you’ve done a bad job.

I know the exact moment I became the man I am today. I was on an Indian train with food poisoning, it was 4AM. I asked my friends for toilet paper, but as they also all had food poisoning I have to resort to tearing pages out of the book I was reading. When I entered the floor had a sloshing puddle of what looked like

No. I get paid by the angry comment. 

We love to take our 700+ horsepower $100k trucks to festivals about self-reliance and being kind to our earth mother or some such, don’t we folks. 

At the intro price, I was really liking the idea of an XLT Hybrid with a few option boxes ticked. Was still closer to $25k than $30k. I’ve since lost interest.

You can find a 2-year old Polaris Slingshot for $18K - $20K, so ND here.

Man nothing demonstrates how fake the economy is more than a company that saw less than 200 vehicles registered in the US and under 20k sold internationally this year being valued higher than Ford or GM

The Sheriff needs to choose his words more carefully. He just issued a challenge to all the ass clowns who don’t know that they are ass clowns. At no point did he say “Do not under any circumstances try to traverse Black Bear Pass.” He only said “you need the right vehicle.”  I assure you, the ass clowns all think

I’m going more on quality with this one. We all know the disappointment that was the decline in quality of Mercedes vehicles starting in the late 90's. I’d say the first generation of the W211 E-class really exemplified this, with pervasive issues with the balance shaft, a new brake by wire system that didn’t work

Gen Xer here. This has not, nor has it ever been a Gen X vehicle. Nor was the PT Cruiser, the last Thunderbird, or any of the other retro designs from the late 90s and early 2000s. They were targeted squarely at late Silent generation and early Boomers who could taste the nostalgia.
