I haven't had time to watch any actual race, but every image I see of those Polos makes me want one so fucking bad.
Subaru Boxster. Someone's gonna call you on that. I guess I just called you on that.
Forget the food being "too hot to hold". That's a stupid argument. Pizza is greasy. I do not enjoy getting grease on my hands, and subsequently my clothing, face, and hair. I do not enjoy having to use napkins or wet wipes after a meal if I don't have to, and using a public restroom to "wash up" after a meal is just…
$32,000 for 100hp, suspension upgrades, and some cosmetics. Holy God. I get that it's Dinan, so there's the whole paying for the brand name thing. Factor in labor and I'd expect it to be pricey, but wow. That's about $10,000 more than I thought it would be. I do love the 1 Series though, and wish it were sticking…
1st Gear: I guess I'm just different then. I care a lot about the actual performance specs of the car, as well as overall aesthetics. I also could not give a crap about bluetooth capability, smartphone integration, infotainment blahblahblah. The issue I have is, yes, with the price, but not dependent upon how much…
Surprisingly, I'm more excited to see the production version now that I've seen the concept. Usually the production model is toned down and less gimmicky, which is disappointing in most cases, but I'm thinking I'll like the production version much more. So excited.
I currently own a 2003 GTI with the 2.8 24V VR6, and love it. It doesn't seem worth it to me to trade mine in on a used Mk4 R32 when it, like stated above, really isn't THAT much better, yet costs roughly $15,000 for a decent example. I definitely miss out on the R32 Recaros and amazing steering wheel, and AWD would…
If I actually had the funds to get the Golf R, I would have, especially considering the fact that some dealers were desperately trying to get them off their lots. Maybe the mk7 will be a different story. As far as the C30 goes, it looks don't match its performance and all-around feel. I love the look, but when it's…
Looking at the Fiesta right next to that M3 got me thinking just how BIG the Fiesta looks. After looking at the numbers, it's only 3 inches shorter in length than my mk4 GTI, 2 inches taller, and has roughly the same wheelbase. Sure, it weighs a little less than my VR6-toting hatch, but not THAT much less. I guess…
I only preorder when it's a special edition I can't live without. It worked out rather well when Best Buy informed me that they had made a mistake and did not have enough Bioshock Infinite Songbird Editions to send me the one I had preordered. However, a few days later they managed to snag one, possibly from a…
Kind of off topic, but aluminum fuel doors...what is with them? It seems like a ton of newer performance cars have them, and they just look tacky to me. They've been around for years and just look dated. Not to mention the fact that you can buy stick-on versions at your local Wal-Mart, which lessens the appeal even…
The main reason iOS is so much simpler is the hardware that it is used in. There is only one new iPhone. There is an iPad and an iPad mini. There are literally hundreds of different Android devices out there, coming in all shapes and sizes. If I were a car manufacturer I'd go with Apple too, just for the sake of…
Agreed.
I'm very excited for the new TT's launch. I hope they make it look more aggressive in the headlights like the A5/S5 (the only aesthetic weakness of the previous TT in my opinion), and include a heavy amount of influence from their Quattro Concept. Dat hood scoop doe.
I hate jaywalkers. I really do. I loathe them. I'm a bus driver, and you have no idea how much I want to just smack someone with the nose of my bus just to teach them a lesson. HOWEVER. Giving someone a ticket for stepping off the curb when the crosswalk's counter is still running? Isn't that what the fucking counter…
Jesus. I prefer to keep my collection smaller, yet full of only good games. In my opinion, it comes to down to console exclusives, and those are further whittled down when you think about how many exclusives are actually enjoyable. This leaves around 15-30 titles per system (in my opinion). Anything shared among…
Agreed. I get pissed, but I never touch someone else's property. I don't allow bicyclists to lean on my car when I'm sitting in traffic either. It's disrespectful and uncalled for in my opinion. If I'm legitimately in the wrong like the guy in the video, a simple tap on my window is totally expected and alright.
I guess it's different in my area. The sidewalks off of our main streets are at least 7 feet wide, and connect to a system of bike paths. They're not necessarily dedicated bike paths, but it is legal to ride a bike on them.
And end up being stuck behind him for the next 10 blocks? Best case scenario I'd just end up passing him again and he would have gained nothing from jumping into the lane around me. Yeah, no. Bicyclists should realize that they can not keep up with the flow of traffic and not put themselves in these situations. I'm…
