... Well, it depends on the location, but if you want to have something people have as a second car, and since you _did_ say winter driving... slightly aged Subaru Outback.

I guessed ‘Owned a VW Beetle’ so I suppose I was technically right.

They should really drive your FiST. They might learn something.

I do like my ‘19 WRX. Traction control that you can disable, ABS, and a rear camera, and that’s _it_. Bought the base model for a reason.

I still think the reason the guy broadsided me last year was that my car was black and without much chrome, on a rainy night.

I am now curious how much energy you could get if you covered a school bus roof with solar panels. It _might_ be effective.

And it’s a period correct hotrod at that. Everyone knows the story of people doing this exact thing. 

As someone who’s been hanging around at Porsche Club of America meetings since I was knee high, nah, it’s perfectly acceptable.

This doesn’t really count as Someone Else’s Project: there are a large number of these, and it’s a really simple upgrade for an engine swap. Very known behavior - there’s just about zero chance of finicky dash or anything else.

Fold flat seats. Mmmmmm. It’s no Matrix XRS but I could be down with this beastie.

Beat me to it. Where the headlights stayed steady and the eyebrows raised.

ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS EXCEPT EUROPA ATTEMPT NO LANDINGS THERE

I feel like the Type 64 is one step further away from Nazi Memorabilia than, say, a Tiger Tank, because the reason the Type 64 is important is not connected to the Nazi regime, but rather to its descendants who are not (except as descendants of this vehicle) connected to the Nazi regime.

I have a very dry sense of humor, apparently. A shame, I hadn’t gotten to how the family unit would be socialized and eliminated under true communism yet. 

While true, the individual taxi is petit bourgeois property, compared to the overseer’s lash of Uber or Lyft themselves - or, indeed, the taxi medallion.

Chapter two of the manifesto. This is not a hard concept. That being said, the car _would_ be part of the centralization of transport and communications under the control of the state, which means both your cell phone _and_ your vehicle go g’bye. But not because it’s private property.

Hm. Interesting. Marx distinguishes between private property and personal property, you know, as do most socialists. Now,given that computers can be the means of production, while cars can rarely be, your cell phone might be private property, but your car certainly is not.

There’s a site somewhere that showed track times for various cars. Anyone remember it? I’m now curious what the ‘18+ STi does in comparison - they revised the shifting and altered the handling and it’s a very improved beast at the edges of the envelope.

Anything in black, doing exactly the legal limit, in the left lane of the two-lane highway, with, generally, a livery plate on it.
