Your first thing is a thing in my hood. I live in the safe confines of the northern burbs of Charlotte NC and my neighbors leave keys in their cars all the time, and guess what? They get stolen sometimes. Whaat! Really, the local police are so frustrated by it that they are always broadcasting on social media and

Its good to see Mazda is still able to out innovate its much larger rivals. The rotary with the new spark plug less ignition will be a key component of this new hyrbid/EV architecture. Can’t wait to see what they have come up with.

I’ve come for the rotaries. Where are the RX7s? Where are the Cosmo 110s? Even some nice Rx2/3/4 would be acceptable.

Pay real close attention to the power to weight ratios. The early mustangs were really a lot of HP for being <=2500 pounds in the 60s and early 70s.

This is my recurring nightmare when I drive my RX7.

The Blue Ridge is a pretty tame and easy to drive road for the NC mountains. The really good roads are the ones that lead up to/away from the Blue Ridge like 276 or 151.

Talked to a vendor at a Cars and Coffee locally. A good whole car wrap costs 2 - 3K as others have said. The one thing that surprised me was that they said it could only stay on for 3 maybe 4 years max, or it becomes difficult to remove without damaging the underlying paint surface.

I know its not one of the 280ZX turds. A nice 240/260/280Z is probably the best answer.

Is using the clutch optional? It was on my 1989 Ford Festiva.

But but but what about the olefactory and auditory joys of IC engines? Does an electric engine have a scratch-n-sniff module so it smells like a rotary?

Lately I’m not to enthralled with super cars. I’m just kind of meh with em these days. They all look alike and sound similar. Its hard to tell them apart at times. Almost boring.

Cord cutters just stop reading now! We can’t see it no matter what.

Same with an RX7 or any rotary. I redline the crap out of my car every single time I drive it. Keeps the carbon at bay and the rest of the car happy.

I have the last model year F150, or so I’ve been told, that came with a 5 speed manual tranny. Its a 2007, can anyone verify this?

I miss my 1986 Mitsu Mighty Max. Could have been the same article about it.

If this is real, then, yes we need to know all about this.

I bought my 2007 F150 at CarMax (in 2012) and was glad I did. I was looking for a standard cab and bed, so 2 door with the little suicide rear doors, no rear seat (no room), 6 foot bed, 4.2 V6, 5 speed, stripped down interior (rubber matted floors, cloth seats, no electric locks, windows etc).

Whiners! My RX7 does this all the time and it hasn’t killed me yet.

I’d love to bring my car, maybe someday :(

You have to mean an RX7, no 8s until this century.
