    *slow clap* I actually picked up the first Gran Turismo recently and was pleasantly reminded of how awesome Japanese cars were in the 90s. I would like to see a return to that. A sort of JDM renaissance.

    damn.

    Is this an option in Yoo-rup?

    True. It's probably still your fault somehow.

    It's beginning to feel a bit tedious, and maybe downright pedantic, but with this many options, if you can't find a BMW to suit your automotive needs, it's probably your own fault.

    I wonder if the plowing compromised the integrity of the frame.

    Agreed. But lack of education + abundance of money x need for attention = that

    A guy I knew in high school inherited one from his father who passed away. The guy is maybe 28-30 now and I imagine has a reasonable amount of money as he posts frequently of his Hublot watch and various vacations as well as his F250 (further inheritance I imagine). But the Ferrari is mysteriously a hermit. I imagine

    I’m originally from NC, where annual safety inspections are mandatory for pretty much all vehicles, and anything 1995 and newer must pass an emissions test. People forget our states operate a bit like independent countries. Not exactly, but sort of.

    I had to go CP on this. If it had really low mileage (sub 75,000 maybe) I could possibly see it. But nah. Although it would be nice to only need about 6 tanks of fuel per year for me.

    For me I had to take personal accountability out of it. Savings is first order of business. Literally, I get paid overnight and the transfer to savings happens concurrently; I never really know its happening because by the time I check anything online, it's already done.

    I can never seem to find my low gear. Its somewhere between a brisk jog and oh god my shins are going to explode.

    I’m genuinely astounded at how complicated returning a defective car can be. Understandably, we are talking about something that is much larger in scale financially than say a television from Best Buy, but in the case of the latter, you just return the defective product and get a replacement. Not so simple with new

    What's the over under on that thing still being able to start on the first crank?

    Toyota cars in the US already have a S, M, L sizing with the corolla, camry and Avalon respectively. Assuming the above dimensions are for the largest version of the Hilux (double cab), it is still almost 1ft shorter than the largest Taco, a hair narrower, and much shorter wheelbase. Using available measurements of

    Why do I want one of these so badly? Oh, because I live in the US and cannot have one. Don't let them see you cry, old boy.

    I thought it was really well done except the damned background music drowned out the part where the guy was DRIVING THE GTR!!!! At any rate, you have made me want an R32 GTR and I have a buyer lined up for one of my kidneys.

    Gratuitous snapchat selfies...the bane of my existence. Also, I watched a MotorWeek segment on Japanese Classics LLC and I'll be damned if Doug's Skyline wasn't on television. Loved this piece by the way.

    Limited Run = Hefty Price + Non-Existent Depreciation /le sigh

    Those baggy pants must come in handy for those huge b@!!s of his.
