It’s not just about taxes — this is the most frustrating part of my job. So many people complained that I “bought a bright red Ferrari” and then “complained about the attention.” Well, no, I didn’t complain about the attention, I reported on the experience of owning the car, and the attention was part of that, so I…

Hey, don't use words like ass raping. It's rude. If I tell your mom, she will cut your internet time again...

In case anyone cares to actually UNDERSTAND the issue, residential water usage is a tiny part of a much larger problem. Focusing on the insignificant stuff is exactly what shifts attention from the real problem. California agriculture uses the vast majority of the water, 80%. Residential uses just 20%. Of that, only…

hahah the explanation was an adventure.

I didn’t expect him to be THRILLED but his reaction was way over the top, right?!

As much as it hurts to say it, the one modern vehicle that most transcends social rank is the Toyota Prius.

Haha, you have no idea what you're talking about.

So Audi simplified. The small one became the A4. The middle one was the A6. The big one was the A8. The dangerously unreliable one was the Allroad. This made sense. People understood this. And look at Audi now: they've attained tremendous success selling a wide range of high-end vehicles, even though they're all…

Visible abs do not equal starving, they come from working out and large amounts of insanely healthy food. Maybe give that a try sometime.

The 308 (and subsequent 328) may be slower than a "stage 1" WRX, more expensive to maintain than a 500 gallon saltwater aquarium, and more uncomfortable than cuddling with an octopus but at the end of the day you're driving emotion.

The Nissan Juke?

hmm 35 years from now I'll face the hard decision between a much faster 2049 Camry or my burning desire for a 2014 Camry. Decisions Decisions Decisions

Seriously. These guys look like they just got done teaching a Sunday school class. However, what about owning a WRX makes you want other people to bash on different makes? Wouldn't it be much more fun if all cars were awesome? Are you involved in come sort of Subaru VW turf war?

Car and Driver is the magazine thats had the Volt, Malibu, and freakin 300C on their 10best list over the last few years.

Car and Driver just said it was the bestest car evers VW pays them a lot in advertising dollars...

"...about as reliable as a parent with a drug habit", lol, that's good. But I'd still rather have a parent with a drug habit than a GTI, (or anything remotely resembling a 'hot hatch').

I test drove a 2012 GTI at a dealer a couple years ago. It felt exactly like my 2006 Jetta TDI, but with more power. In terms of fun and driver involvment, that GTI had waaay more in common with my Jetta than with my Miata.
