Subaru does both, as well as making them affordable. Seems to be working out for them.

So here is the dirty secret about pickups. Most of the accidents I see in the winter involve them because they a) don’t have all wheel drive, they have four wheel drive that you have to actively engage, but most don’t until it’s too late because they are worried about getting even shittier fuel economy. And because of…

Looks like that has happened at least twice lately in the comments here. No worries though.

Mmmm, no, at least with regards to being “unsafe”. Almost any smaller, lighter, responsive car will give you a better chance of surviving an emergency maneuver. Add modern day ABS, traction control, and safety restraint systems and better crumple zones like my BRZ, and you have a vehicle that scores higher in safety…

You are responding to the wrong post. At least your last paragraph is.

Wow, you should add “arrogant” after “rude” to your username.

Well, I’m a glass half full type, so I can guess what you are.

The Gen 1 cars were stubby and ungainly but the Gen 2 models onward were very nice looking cars.

Cars from different decades are a lot like bands. You may not have liked the trends, but you could always find a few good ones.

A rather nebulous term for an inanimate object, but I get where Andrew is coming from, and I feel that way about my BRZ. Perhaps simple, friendly and predictable might be better descriptions.

I can’t think of another current model car that compares as well to the Prelude as a BRZ. Fun, honest, economical and reasonably priced sports coupes are becoming very rare these days.

Sharp. When you have a car this good it becomes a part of you.

Both sides dug in because A.) Germany’s army was almost in total collapse and would have lost the war if it had continued the offensive, and B.) France and Britain were too exhausted to maintain one.

First, I want to congratulate and encourage you on your articles and scholarship, a rare thing these days, especially on an automotive site. The First Battle of the Marne has a lot of different interpretations and viewpoints, and though I have always enjoyed Lyn MacDonalds books, especially the early ones, her reading…

At this point, I will probably just lease IF I need another car.

A colleague just bought a new Ford 150 for 50 grand, and didn’t bat an eye at the asking price, because they rolled over on the excess mileage on a previous pickup he was leasing.

Jaguar has been promising a 6 cylinder version of the Engenium modular block for over a year now.

Honestly, I don’t think the price gap between these two cars will be that great, nor will it matter. One is a roadster with a loyal following. The other has iconic status with another loyal buying group. The critical price comparison will be between the Supra and the Porsche Cayman, and the BMW vs Porsche Boxster. The…

Didn’t say that. I have owned two performance cars in the last four years. Just not in the market for that one, and that is somewhat the fault of the car.

Like a lot of car buyers, he wasn’t sure what he wanted, but if I had to guess he was uncomfortable with the whole image of the ATS-V. He certainly would have enjoyed the performance of it, but not the “peacocking” image of it and what it would say about him. It’s the same reason I would never buy a Camaro, no matter…
