Reddit is full of people complaining about progression nerfs in fh5 and saying they are “done” with forza. Most average people don’t care about the stuff we complain about on enthusiast websites. It’s stupid there’s an always online component, but I also learned the game was down from the internet this morning and not…

Don’t worry, it will all work itself out once the supply chain gets back to normal.

Even my company, who has always been loath to give raises, realizes that they are going to be forced to increase pay across the board by 7-10% if they want to have any employees left by the end of the year. Given that the biggest input to cost is labor, they will end up having to either increase the pricing or eat…

Tesla has really done this best (granted they don't have dealers) but adjusting msrp frequently to match the market

I was gonna say, I voted NP because this is about the going rate for one of these. The motor replacement is a plus IMO, these are very high-strung engines and having a fresh one isn’t a bad thing.

2009 is a B8, not a B7.  No such thing as a 2009 RS4 and no B8 RS4 was sold in the US either.

LS swapping an RX8 has made it 3250 pounds.

An LS is like 450 lbs and a Renesis is 250lbs. It’s like driving an extra adult male passenger around at all times. Not the end of the world. 

When I had my BRZ, I ran into a couple with a pair of RX8s (his and hers) and their baby (!!!) at a HPDE event.

The RX-8 forums will tell you it’s not worth it. Not super complicated, but it’s expensive. And when the irons wear, clearances increase, and there’s no way to make up for that like you with an overbore on a piston engine. Compression on a rebuild will never be as it was from the factory.

I don’t want one, but this is the right take. What scares me away is the “normal” oil consumption (qt./1000 mls.). May as well drop in a 2-stroke. Finally a NP/ND car within 2 miles, and ND from the git go for me, but NP for someone who wants one of these.

Well to be fair, the last two Charger models before the modern era were shite on the styling front. They probably thought a clean sheet was the best option. They were wrong, but you can see why they might have thought that way.

They’re too busy taking those chips to put into $120K Escalades to care.

Hyundai sells almost as many Elantras in a year as Dodge has sold Challengers in it’s entire 14 year run. When you're dealing in big volumes, you can afford to redo things more often.

Make your move, homie. It's a worker's economy. Never been a better time to make 8k more annually somewhere else.

Counterpoint: Hyundai sold more than triple what Dodge sold in the US alone in 2021.

Plenty of people have hooned Raptors, TRXs, etc off of various ramps.

but only because it is so old that it predates the microchip.

/only a little /s

Yeah but those are all way too high off the ground for proper hooning.  

Is it good? Not really. But it looks GREAT. And as time goes by, and an economy car is faster, that’s what really counts.
