I had a 2000 Celica GT-S as my second car, it was super fun, even with an auto, though the downshifts on manual mode were slow as hell.

I suppose that’s true Grimey.

You laugh but he speaks at least two languages. 

I did not know of such a wondrous device, I hate putting my car on jack stands. A 3rd pinch weld between the two per side would be great for such occasions. 

I took a test drive around 5 years back and while I’m sure it’s faster the heft and weight just made it feel more cumbersome than the BRZ, Mini Cooper S, and GTI I chucked around as I test drove. I guess that wasn’t really fair since it’s more a GT car.

I suppose that would help.

You must live in a place that gets 70 year-round. Or you are crazy. 

Honestly, I don’t hate this. I can actually see it being more useful than having to reach across to the dash only to run over an expansion joint on the road and having the resulting movement make me press something else on accident. Ideally there would be a separate interface like Mazda’s dial but if they must shove…

I told my wife we would trade in her WRX for an STI hatch the moment one comes out, I guess we’re stuck with the WRX.

Neat

This happened on September 11th at my company too, never forget.

You have nowhere to go but up.

Pro controller is fine, I’ve played every smash game with the current consoles controllers and I’ve never had a problem being competitive with the GC controller die-hards.

Yeah it’s weird but looking at other comments it seems like he was adopted and took his name.

I got half way through and had to go back to re-read, it was pretty confusing with all of Pat’s titles. I initially read it as multiple, unnamed people.

I don’t think it’s that. Jason is Pat’s son, Bob is the step dad. Besides, if all the employees are siding with Jason, I’m more inclined to believe that. Sounds more like his mom, Pat, is trying to take it all for herself.

I can only buy so many new cars though. I’m 29 and have done my part for now, 2 new manuals. When it’s time to buy another vehicle I probably won’t have that option.

I don’t know about the concept looking better than production, at least the outside but that’s subjective. The inside looks pretty dope though, if unrealistic. Side note, that zipper over the DVD cover, yikes. 

Yup, I can do $60-$100 a weekend for my wife and I to autocross but I can’t do $400 plus race day insurance plus hotel per person to go often to the track. I can do a few every now and then and I get that the seat time might be worth it, but it’s a lot of cash to drop at once. Haven’t been back to the track in like a…

I have luckily not been subjected to those vehicles, or at least I haven’t noticed them.
