Right about to abandon Mass Effect: Andromeda.
It’s not fun, it’s janky to watch, the interface is frustrating and the controls suck. In fact the game sucks all around, but it’s my first ME game and I am trying to give a franchise I’ve heard a lot about a solid chance.

Oh sure it’s not an actual Jake Brake, but that was clearly the inspiration. There are people with the bikes around here with straight pipes but this is way louder. I don’t know what he’s done to screw it up so bad, maybe he’s dumping gas in the exhaust pipe or something. I don’t know, I’m not a turd engineer.

I live in a quaint little touristy village, picturesque gardens and gazebos and old timey homes, gift shops, boutiques, the lot. There’s a guy here who owns a Harley with an exhaust modified to include a Jake Brake. So it’s VERY loud as he accelerates, but as he decelerates, it’s deafening. I can hear the thing when…

it actually looks worse than the current Camry. That takes effort.

Pro: Low Miles, good paint
Con: Literally everything else

I’d always suspected this was the case but thought it could just have been a decent cover band

Ahhh, I remember Mercury... they’re the reason I can skip the Jaguar Parts counter and get engine spares at Ford prices for my AJV8.

I’ve never understood why Volkswagen decided to turn the Passat into a Camry., as Toyota already makes one of those.
To compete, you need to find a niche, or make one up.

It’s interesting to see that even in 1865, America was using the word “entree” wrong (via Wikipedia):

Seems like the 25% off is only for first subscription purchases, not plain-old purchases

Neutral: Ultimately does it matter what federal standards are set when each state gets to define its own laws with its own DOT?

She could be a diamond in the rough, but as it stands it’s just rough.

If I’d only seen that top shot and didn’t know about the car beforehand I’d have said “Nice Accord”

As a side, I don’t have an issue with modified imports; just in combination with the other factors I think we can safely assume this car has lived 150,000 of its 50,000 miles. And while I might appreciate the intake work I don’t appreciate mods that can’t be easily undone (like the fenders).

Let’s see:
*Modified import
*Stick shift transmission with a new clutch replacing the original one suspiciously early
*Pistol-packing hillbilly screaming “I KNOW WHAT I HAVE”

CP for days.

Voted CP; IIRC Elises can be had for around this price - why would you go half Lotus?

I feel like - for posts like this one, if you click “NP” you should have to explain yourself before it lets you click “Vote”.

I see Nissan Leaf in that gauge cluster:

Ah yes, the United States Marines.

Outside of Canada, who is voting NP on this one?
And why is driving a van with a tote-pail of your own excrement no more than 10 feet behind you considered a positive?
