I suppose to be fair, it did come with the SR20DET in other markets so you could argue you're returning it to stock.

We get inclement weather in Texas for sure, but even if we didn't, we still like our awd hoonmobiles.

It's probably a safe bet to assume that there aren't many Subarus at all in Hawaii, just like there are not many in sandy and dry Texas.

I can agree with that. If there are problems with people faking service animals, then perhaps there does need to be something. Maybe something as simple as an endorsement on a state issued ID.

Touche! Good catch. Forgot about the Speedster.

And the Holden VX220 is better looking still

Built by Mercury Marine because GM couldn't build it to the tolerance dictated by the engine designer who was actually Lotus.

I wish I still had the issue, but there was a Motor Trend issue with the headline "King of the Hill". In the issue, they had an image of the ZR-1 doing a ridiculous burn-out at 85 mph in 3rd gear. The King of the Hill moniker was not a joke. You can read the article here though: http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/chev…

I think BMW was the king. You don't even have to compare stablemates if you consider the early 2000's 740i and the extended length 740iL.

Family resemblance?

Truer words have rarely been spoken in regards to both the Cadillac curse and accountants (someone needs to be the voice of reason to reign them in). How your comment only has 2 stars is beyond me.

Interesting! DOT regulations require one speaker to be in the car? I'm curious because I thought back in the day radios were optional?

Good point.

For a Hummer-looking Mercedes?!

Everyone can form their own opinion on which vehicle looks better, but I can confirm one thing from field testing: the G-Wagen attracts sneers, middle-fingers, and eye-rolls from everyone who really notices it. If the Escalade inspired similar emotions, nobody I met was passionate enough to let me know with a rude…

No, it's physics. Mass is the problem. When you hit a lighter vehicle with a heavier one, which one is going to get demolished and likely end up with injured occupants?

Because the chicken tax adds a 25% tariff on imported light trucks which would probably put their pricing so close to full size trucks that there would be little reason to buy one (besides fuel economy, size, or just not wanting a gargantuan full size truck). It's stupid and should be repealed at this point but at the…

I feel like because it's sold in other countries where the cost of fuel is much higher, the companies actually try to design a degree of aerodynamics to them that doesn't equal that of a brick wall. Otherwise I think a lot of mid-size trucks have always been a bit more rounded than their full size brethren.

Geez! Well yeah, add an electric motor and some NiMH battery packs and of course you add 300 extra pounds.

Absolutely, anyone driving a behemoth like the BMW 3-series should have additional licensing requirements
