Most higher trims of Hyundai & Kia models include heated/vented front seats, heated steering wheel & heated rear seats. 

Hyundai & Kia offer heated steering wheels on most of their models. For something Outback-or-smaller sized, there’s the Tucson Limited & Ultimate, Sportage EX Technology Package & SX, and Santa Fe Limited with either the NA or turbo engine option. 

That’s narf.

This change in requirements is for all the cars out there where you have to pay extra for the fancy version of their headlights, and the base headlights are crap. Think of all the cars that come standard with halogen bulbs but offer an upgrade to LEDs on higher trims or as part of option packages. The only change…

Um yeah, about that...

So.... What kind of differential, open or LSD?

The A-class is a 5 door hatch in most of the rest of the world but the US only gets it as a sedan plus the assorted other A-class based cars (CLA, GLA, GLB).

Here, this will help settle you back down: in the USA you will only be able to purchase the A 35 with 100% more added trunk.

So you’re saying you’d rather have an A 35.

I’m not an expert in crash standards, but I do know that generally speaking governments, and non-government crash testing places like IIHS, do raise their crash test standards, or come up with new, different tests that expose weaknesses in cars that had previously been given high ratings.

Oh, I see, so you’re one of those.

The Chrysler LX platform is sticking around for a long time kinda like how you want, but generally speaking having a vehicle platform stick around forever like you want isn’t feasible anymore because of the need to keep up with crash, emissions & efficiency standards.

I’m Jewish. My wife’s Catholic. Neither of us is religious but she loves her some Christmas decorations. We have boxes upon boxes of that shit. We got real trees for several years until last year we gave up and got a fake one. Because:

My dad’s job in the 80s included a company car among its perks. He used said perk to lease a glorious 2-tone blue Mk2 Supra, which he followed up with a red Sterling 827 of all things.

Wait, you think STI is in Italy?

I don’t know why they went with the 80s music for what is a 90s retro car. Especially since when I was a kid in the 90s a huge chunk of MTV and especially VH1 programming was 80s retrospectives that talked trash about the 80s and how the 90s were so much cooler.

If your only standard for whether behavior is acceptable is if it’s legal or not, you have an extremely warped view of acceptable behavior.

This SLX is cool, but every person involved in the production of this video must be punched repeatedly.

Subaru did not create a separate manufacturer for the S209. STI already existed as a separate manufacturer. STI’s status as a separate manufacturer is what prevented previous STI-built cars from being certified in the US.
