Thanks for the heads-up. I think I have that exact card in a rarely-used GoPro so I’ll pop that in if it matches, and order this if not.

How timely - there’s a lightning deal on Amazon right now for an entry-level model for just 24 bucks. Grabbing it now.

I mean, a $6,000 payout* on a 20 year old anything is still substantial. I had a 10 year old fully loaded Accord V6 in good condition that was worth less than that to my insurance company.

As a large guy who had a same-generation Honda Accord platform mate and had plenty of room to spare, I think we have a winner.

Makes the most sense - the CH-R is going to be due for a new generation around 2021 and the current CX-3 will hit 5-6 years old when the first new cars roll out of the Alabama plant. Both will be due for an upgrade around then, and merging them both onto one platform would be wise.

“Everything is smoother at 8/10ths!”

I have to imagine there will eventually be some sort of automatic sleep/hibernate function after a set period of driver inactivity. Which I expect to work just as well as the same function I have set on my laptop, which completely drains its battery overnight about once a week.

It certainly looks cool and puts a new spin on an old lever, but no matter how intuitive they make it someone’s going to get confused and leave this thing in not-parked mode (do we still call them Drive and Neutral with electric cars?) and become a rollaway risk.

Would this be the hot-hatch equivalent of Jeremy Clarkson’s Sports Train?

“I’m only doing a three foot patch of weeds, I’ll be done in 15 seconds” was all the justification I needed for the one time I didn’t grab a pair of safety glasses using the string trimmer. Very lucky I didn’t lose any of my eyesight, but a ride to urgent care and a $300 bill was lesson enough for me.

Overall it’s crazy overstyled like some sort of Japanese mecha fantasy, but in black they look much better by hiding the plastic fake vent overload. Granted, I’ll never own a black car again...

Shit, my school “recommended” the TI-83+ in 2002 or so and that was retailing for $180 at the time. They also said the TI-82 was “acceptable,” retailing for $130 but could be had for $100 when bought through the school.

Hyundai Brat N featuring the Veloster N’s 260hp turbo four, 6MT, AWD, and a $29,995 delivered MSRP? My god, I’ve never been so turned on by the prospect of a Hyundai.

1st Gear: They call it a pickup truck, but I’m not holding my breath for much more than a Hyundai-styled take on the Subaru Baja running on the Elantra/Tucson platform.

I know there’s a problem afoot when I’m more excited by the redesigned 2020 Nissan Versa than this car.

There was a time where these were the best-performing cars you could buy under $100,000, competing with cars costing $200,000 or more. Now the GT-R’s top trim costs $200,000, or more.

27 years seems a little optimistic for the $3,500 budget of most Jalops.

Could this be one of those instances where a brown manual Jetta (or Golf) Sportwagen TDI actually makes a solid case?

You say door-challenged commuter, I say Grand Tourer on the cheap.

Neutral: Hate to say it, but I open my car’s moonroof about once a season, and nearly all the time it’s spent closed I’ve also had the cover shut.
