Its most natural competitor the Supra starts at $50k. Back in the 90s the Z32 was a several grand cheaper than the MkIV across the various equivalent trim levels. If anything, $40k for a new Z with the VR30DDTT in 400 hp tune is kind of a bargain.  

It’s not bad at all, like whatever colors you like. 

My wife’s gas CX-5 average 21-22 in mostly city driving. Just saying. 

Speaking from experience with my wife’s 2018 CX-5 with AWD & the NA 2.5, which rarely sees highway driving, she’s averaging about 21-22 mpg. If a particular tank involves more highway driving than usual for her car, we might push the average mpg up to the 24-25 range for the tank.

Actually now that I think about it we had the windows open on Saturday and my shopping was on Sunday, when it wasn't quite as warm, but still well above average for January. She was the one who opened up the windows on Saturday so she probably wouldn't have questioned my choice of clothing then.

1982 baby here. I grew up in a fairly wealthy part of the DC suburbs, but in the early-mid 90s when these were new it was a semi-low-key area where people didn’t want to be too ostentatious with their wealth. Plenty of nice cars, but full-on exotics were very rare. S-Classes, 7-Series and 911s were about as hard as…

Never underestimate the power of “but that’s how we’ve always done it” in a workplace. That phrase is the biggest enemy of common sense I’ve encountered in all my years of working in many different companies. 

And yet, the Taurus is cramped on the inside compared to other similarly-sized cars like the Avalon. 

Former Madison resident here. In Wisconsin, the cities of Milwaukee and Madison are reliably blue. The rest of the state keeps getting redder. The difference-maker in statewide elections is usually how many POC in Milwaukee and Madison show up to the polls. Those POC communities are jaded as hell and do not blindly…

Here is a pagoda SL in a lovely green with a roof rack on the removable roof. According to the owner this was a supposedly-rare example with only the removable roof and no convertible soft top. Normally I hate roof racks but I’ll give this one a pass. This was at the Rockville Antique & Classic Car Show.

I see we’ve got a Kia Rondo fan on our hands.

That’s already been built, and is driving around Madison, WI:

Can confirm, I’m in the DC burbs and we had the windows open at my house too. I went shopping in a t-shirt with no jacket and my wife was all, “aren’t you going to get cold like that?” and I said no, it’s almost 70 degrees out. 

But the Subaru cotton candy smell comes from the Subaru drivers, not the cars themselves.

After selling Opel to PSA, GM had been paying PSA for the various GM-branded versions of the Insignia i.e. the Regal and Holden Commodore. GM doesn’t build it themselves. 

Do these smell like cotton candy as they drive by?

The ES is a front wheel drive transverse engine layout, the K900 is a twin turbo AWD longitudinal engine layout. The turbos, transfer case, driveshaft and rear differential all add weight.

Different Civic body styles are built in different factories and not all the drivetrains and bodies are made in the same places.

I know many reviews have mentioned the rev hang but when I test drove an Si last summer I never even noticed it. My main complaint about shifting it was the gas pedal is tiny and not in a good position relative to the brake for heel-toeing. Enough people agree with my assessment that there are multiple different gas…

“GTI is in a completely different category,” lol, you’ve drank so much Kool-Aid you’re drowning.
