That’s rich coming from an assumed American with 25 year import bans. 

You know if it was the inverse “guardian angel” level 2 automation that there’d be idiots putting it to the test and abusing it too. I think it’s a good idea too but Darwin Award participants are gonna compete no matter what.

The robot is so they can replace the meat sack workers so they can build cybertrucks non-stop.

I remember when they had a 4 door vehicle that could fit this same niche but was smaller and lighter. Shared the ST designation too! I think it was called a Focus.

2 small/ish rwd cars with manual transmissions. Mostly destined to be commuters, with some owners autocrossing/tracking them occasionally on the weekends. I cross shopped previous gens when I bought my ND. Lately the 370Z got mostly ignored because it was ancient selling for new car money. 

I cross shopped the previous gen of both cars when I bought my ND. Along with a Mini, WRX, and GTI. I wanted an enthusiast car with a manual.

Living in Texas, sunroofs are overrated. We have one in the WRX and the shade is closed 99% of the time. It’s too hot to leave unshaded or open, lets in extra wind noise when the shade is open, and most importantly, robs you inches of head space which is an issue for me when wearing a helmet. Not issues for you, just…

Last two cars my wife and I have bought are new and stick, I even want the new Bronco in flat-ass Texas because it comes with a stick (plus it looks awesome). The Miata is uncomfortable now with some stiff coilovers and once we decide to expand our family I’ll need a bigger car (keeping the Miata though) and I’m…

So your friend in his late 20s married an 18 year old that he presumably dated for at least a little bit while she was underage?

Wonder if that’s what the covers on the side skirts of some 90s/00s BMW’s  I’ve seen are also for. 

What am I looking at here? 

I don’t even ride but I’ve seen his videos posted here a few times now and I always watch because they are fascinating. 

Replaceable LED modules instead of having to replace the entire housing would be nice. Rear brake light went out on and instead of a bulb like it uses for the turn signal. I now have to replace the entire housing for a couple hundred bucks instead of <$5. LED running lights, and reverse lights work fine but now I have…

Bolted on rear quarter panels would be great. I’m with you on wheels inset from the tires. Curbed a couple of mine by parking too close to the curb. Ironically I was trying to leave more room on the other side to avoid potential damage from the car next to me.  

We have aggressive brakepads that squeak and produce a lot of dust for daily/autocross duty. Used to autocross pretty much every weekend prior to the pandemic, needless to say, the wheels went uncleaned. We don’t worry about it anymore.  

Couldn’t you just buy the armrest and put it in? I know the WRX came with the center console lid that extends up as optional. Salesman said a lot of people came back to buy that part.

Local O’Rilley’s had masks and signs requiring masks in Texas of all places so this was a surprise read for me. Actually I’ve been pleasantly surprised by most stores this past year. Of course the one thing I haven’t seen is jerks being told to mask up when they are supposed to but I can’t honestly blame the workers…

I come back and read the answers on the original article rather than click through a slide show. What was wrong with the original single passage format? Well I know it’s not them but coming from higher up. Are Herbs still a thing? I dropped off reading for a few months before coming back.

So this is embarrassing but happened to me with at least two sets of blades, there is a plastic cover over the wiping surface that I forgot to take off/didn’t notice. Wiped great when I first installed them, eventually that plastic must have hardened from being out in the elements and the wipers were crap afterwards.…

A convertible is perfect for you, can’t hit your head on the roof if there isn’t one.
