That's exactly what they're for. Here in B.C. law requires slow traffic to use their four-ways. Truck drivers use them all the time going up steep hills, and, as a school bus driver, I was told as part of license training to use them when going slowly i.e. a certain hill that was too steep to keep up speed and had a…

Everyone's talking horsepower, but it's a car that's had as much thought put into it's chassis as it's engine. What I think would be interesting to see is, with the requisite bump in power, they lightened it, say 100 lbs. Every nice sports/super car has a lightweight version, why can't we have a blue/white (proverbial…

You would love David Foster Wallace then, grammar-wise. And from the context of the box of nickels comment one could infer that a box of nickels is awarded for winning LeMons.

I'm so tired of put a SBC in it syndrome. People with no imagination grab cars with character, then do their best pounding all of the character out of it with their stock modifications. It's like the breast implant of car modifications. Don't have any imagination? Need to grab peoples attention? Read to much generic…

Why wouldn't they take it? Because they have assloads of money just like you and they bought the car because they wanted it more than the assloads of money it cost.

It's a breath of fresh air after being smother in LSx engines. Yes you can put a SBC into an RX-7 but then it would be soulless, like Frankenstein's monster, but this... this is an injection of pure quirky awesome to a car, from a car company, that is always doing something a little strange.

Only in America can something that displaces over 7 litres can something be referred to as 'small'. It's a mad mad mad world.

Completely agree. When people do things wrong and someone who does the same thing gets injured I have no compassion. I've seen drivers act like asses so I feel no pity when other drivers get in accidents. I once saw someone jay walking, so I have no pity on anyone who is walking and gets injured by someone else. Until…

Dekotora have gone to far to be bad. They've traversed the globe of taste as it were and ended up somehow, courtesy of mixed metaphors, in the outer space of awesome. The only way to make a bad dekotora is to stop before the thought 'oh shit I've gone to far' is so far in your review mirror that you are unable to pick…

I hate the guy to be adding caveats to the game, but LP 550-2 Balboni with the stick, I'd undone a couple buttons, get a medallion and a chest toupee and daily drive that for it's ridiculousness, track the Audi because it seems like a robot to go fast in and burn the 911 because that's the only thing that would make…

It's kind of a softer, moral type of egotism.

If by wrong you mean the third syllable is pronounced 'ee', like at the end of slurpee (and like us Canadians do) then you sir, by dint of the Japanese pronunciation/spelling are wrong. セリカ　sounds like se-r/lee-ka.

I think my dad has even sent some to Alberta. I know my uncle there, in NORTHERN Alberta has one on his farm. They're definitely a hard sell now, as many people who want onroad use by trucks and the off-roaders by the new side-by-sides. You can check out his site at http://rockymountainminitrucks.net/. It gets a bit…

I drive an RX-7 just two years newer, and though my paper is in the middle of the Canadian wilderness/snowy wasteland come winter, I still work as a reporter there, so yeah for SA/FBs being the choice for reporters. Hell, mine's even a GSL.

You know what the manual is dying a long protracted death and until it's palsied, incontinent end comes I'll bitch and complain to everyone because the option I love is being taken away from me, and one day in the not-so-far future, when everyone's pumped about the new CVT-transmission having, electric-hybrid running,…

This is exactly what I've been thinking every time someone argues that people who love manuals are ludites. I'm not against CVTs and automatic gearboxes, and car companies should go ahead and develop those, but what annoys me is that car companies seem to be more and more obsessed with market share, of which the…

Yeah, I'd totally take the DBR9, then sell it and buy a regular DB9 and have money left over to pay for the gas and tires I would go through hooning it =/= an answer to the question or any question asked on Morning Would ever. If you would turn around and flip the car the answer, for you, is no.

Meaning may be relative, but when you say something meaningless that isn't. And when you're asking someone's opinion on something they didn't care enough to really give any thought what you get is a half-baked opinion that is meaningless. That's not hating. If you ask me my opinion on why I bought the computer I did…

Here in the land of the free, Canada, you can drive around older Sambas and their ilk. My dad ships them over from Japan, though there doesn't seem the same market for small, useful trucks as there is for full-size trucks no one uses as trucks.

I once talked with a guy driving his Bentley speed six from New York to Alaska as part of a rally. The thing was filthy because of the dirt special stages. The whole thing was essentially a lot of well off English people who shipped their cars to North America to do the rally. Also in the rally; a Rolls Royce Silver…
