Not really...your brake pads are only wearing when they’re actually in the process of stopping your car, not when they’re simply holding it in place.

Yep, try only using park on an incline and you’ll generally feel more resistance than normal when shifting out of park (unless you have one of those newfangled electric shifters). My routine is always regular brake—>neutral—>parking brake—>let off regular brake—>park. Makes sure no stress is on the parking pin of the…

Also a great way to wear our the throw out bearing of your clutch. Definitely go neutral at a light when driving stick.

From the headline I honestly expected this to be a Demuro article.

You and I both! Plus having a couple turbos nesting in the vee makes for some fantastic engine porn once you remove the layers of plastic.

2017 should see the new ILX using Honda’s new turbo 4 that apparently makes more power and torque than the 2.4 despite the lower rating. May also top 40 on the highway if they make it a little more aerodynamic. Will they find a way to throw the Type-R engine in it for a performance variant? One can only hope.

“Audi claims this is the world’s first series production car combining turbocharging with an electrically powered compressor, but we beg to differ.”

If Blake Griffin can be black, so can our president.

Well it’s all relative. Will it be as reliable as a Civic? Doubtful...more reliable than its competition, though? Most likely. Time will tell.

Any decent muffler shop should be able to clean up your exhaust for a couple hundred, assuming it isn’t leaking from the cat or the manifold. Worth looking into if you’re keeping that car for a few more years.

I will be the first to admit that a newer Honda will not likely be as bulletproof as their cars of the 90s and their B-series engines. My brother has a first-gen CR-V that is passing 300k leak and trouble-free miles.And yes, until their most recent Civic which finally ditches that IMA garbage, their hybrids were a…

The reputation for reliability of the company that makes it. It’s not a guarantee, but not necessarily an unsafe assumption either.

Correct, double jeopardy covers the same or similar charges. He should be tried for manslaughter if found innocent of murder. But if the case is thrown out or otherwise never actually tried, then that’s another story and I believe they can come back at him with lesser charges.

My neighbor hits the auction regularly and flips about 20 cars per week...on Craigslist. They’ll end up there eventually. But if you can snag a dealer’s license you can avoid his mark-up.

Probably also has to do with the single speed gearbox up front and the two-speed at the back. The engines are likely hitting their power peaks at different road speeds, and 1073 is the combined peak output at a given speed vs simply adding the two engines together.

Porsche and Apple are in cahoots!

The rear haunch / fender flare lines actually remind me of a Camaro. Makes it look more aggressive than previous Astons, which isn’t a bad thing in my book. The rest of the car is obviously 100% Aston. I like it.

I heard they also made a Rally Racer version of the Road and Track. It’s the Challenger R/T R-R

He crashed out at the scene and probably had countless witnesses that would contradict his story if it were anything but the truth.

But is your gauge digital????
