I watched this video, then read this i09 article, then watched the video again. The end of the video suddenly made sense.

For about a year, my house was littered with two broken Subarus. A 2000 2.5RS coupe that I rearended someone in and a 1991 Legacy Turbo that my friend grenaded first gear in at rallycross. I could have just swapped the trans from the RS into the Legacy, but I decided to complicated things and but I decided to add a

I know I missed the AMA, but I just wanted to mention that you have been one of my automotive heros for well over a decade. Also, I have successfully pulled off the “Dave Shift” during a rallycross (i think that was the term you coined).

Seriously, no contest here.

Resale, reliablity, dealer network, dealer experience, etc etc. Those are all areas where Acura excels, and valid reasons a Normal Person might buy one car over another.

^^^ What he said. They are NOT the same.

After reading your posts, I finally put two and two together and realized I know your brother Ben. In fact, we’ve been trying to get a beer for months now, but my toddler keeps throwing a wrench in the plan.

This was about 5-6 years ago, and sold the miata 4 years ago. But Hallett is great track! I used to go help support a friend who raced there, but it’s been a few years. The high speed touring or whatever they call it there is very affordable from what I remember. I think it was $150 for four 15 min sessions, plus you

Yep, paid a bit extra for a transponder. It’s the only track I’ve been on, but I follow your reasoning. Makes sense not to let the novices get too invested in laptimes.

Guy in the Accord sedan = Hero.

I had the same experience at Hallet in OK in my basically stock Miata. It was my first track day, and my car had half the horsepower of the next lowest powered car in the session, so I lined up at the back, trying not to hold everyone up.

Where does a dart gun powered by rubber bands fall on that scale? I would say closer to the hammer than the firearm. It's a stupid article.

Rogue in vogue?

The new Rogue uses similar design language and looks great as well, although is a bit tamer. Again, one of the best looking vehicles in a boring segment.

Great column on a subject that’s not covered well on this site or most others. I thought it great overview of Nissan that easily kept my attention. Love your stuff Hardigree!

Truth. I had similar experiences selling Cadillacs when the original CTS-V launched.

I will always have a soft spot for the 3 doors. My dad had a '68 baby blue one when I was growing up, in the 80s. Took us all over Idaho and Nevada, with just a granny first gear and a LSD.

Came to find whoever posted this and star it.

I had a similar situation on a Toyota. For $500, I bought a '88 Supra Turbo that wouldn't start, but had glove box full of receipts totaling $3000. I tracked the problem down to the starter, and went to replace it one afternoon after classes. Three days later, one of the two starter bolts was still in, my right arm

As a new father, I just starred every response here.
