I’m glad someone else brought this point up because it was one of my first thoughts getting into the article. How exactly do you approach a problem like this without creating all new laws for pedestrians regarding autonomous cars? I don’t think you can without reevaluating current infrastructure and how people…

There’s a lot of information out there, but here’s one article.

Those JD Power and Consumer Reports rankings are hitting on the brittle crap in the car (the steering wheel shroud, weak armrests, etc.) but the engine has been solid.

St. Louis’ finest *horse urinals, FTFY :) (as if such a thing exists)

Way late on the reply, haha.. my bad. It involved moving the front passenger seat all the way up and leaned forward and folding the back seats down. Along with some creative maneuvering. I never said I’d ever try it again though! :)

Absolutely! In that scenario I’d say hell yes!

I’m 6'3 and 200lbs, normally I leave the back seats down for additional storage capacity, but I’ve used it to haul a 55" TV and 14 bags of mulch with a little extra room (different trips obviously). It’s plenty of capacity for a daily unless you’re constantly hauling kids, tools or furniture around town.

Definitely not…

I want to say yes if only because I daily one.

The stock gauge is very deceptive since it’s reading requested vs actual boost. It looks like you’re pushing boost when cruising in 5th down the interstate but you really aren’t. Also, switching to a FMIC setup and flash tune basically solved the lag problem. At times the car feels NA until you hear the lovely sneeze…

That’s WHP with a proper flash tune and not a piggyback. (230 +/- whp and 250 +/- wtq)

I’ve just about bumped up against the limits of my Abarth with stock turbo. The car is absolutely a blast to drive (when you’ve modified out the factory weak points) but I wouldn’t consider it an exotic, haha.. although the thought…

I’ve loved mine for almost 3 years now. Longest I’ve owned a car for a while and it’s an absolute blast every time I get behind the wheel!

I don’t drive a fancy-schmancy car by any means, but I love my Fiat Abarth and I’ve got dings on both sides and one on a fender well from careless people.

I, for one, haven’t ever been in a situation that I felt necessitated the recording of police activity. (Hopefully it stays that way) That said, I think you make valid points here, specifically the adhering to normal human politeness. I see some people treat police officers like they aren’t even humans and that’s…

I can vouch for the James Spann part. I'm in North Alabama and still get some of that here, haha.

This is terrifying!
