I think last year was the first year since bing gave rewards that I actually paid for live/game pass. The only reason I did that is because I use google for work now and bing rewards no longer includes the 12 month subscription

That’s why I’m not keeping mine much longer. The rear seats don’t even fold, so it’s a terrible hauler for normal daily duty type stuff.

I’d love to get that sort of scratch for my non spec-b lgt. I know prices are inflated right now, but I’d be happy to get even 75% of that price

That bias is honestly why I’m leaning toward the S4 over the Golf R/S3. I think dollar for dollar, including mods, the Golf R ends up faster and is probably a more fun and practical car, but who ever said car purchases were rational

I’m basically waiting for configurations like this to become commonplace. I get that Teslas are fast with a low COG, but I really just want something built to handle before I’m personally buying an EV. 

Oddly enough, I found that the S3 drives really similarly to the LGT. I described it as if a robot was telling me how to drive my car perfectly. The S4 feels a little different, probably because of the added power/weight. Still want to get into one with the torque vectoring rear diff though. That’s the non-negotiable…

I was going to suggest this exact thing. I’m also willing to die on the hill that the 86 twins are at their best left stock (minus tires and pds) and driven hard, rather than modified for more power/grip

I only happen to know this because my fiance works with unions and the list of “approved” cars wasn’t all of the big 3 lineups

In all seriousness, is it a UAW thing? I know some, but not all cars made by GM come from UAW plants and fall into the same sort of nonsense

I actually cross shopped B6/B7 S4's, E39 M5s, and the LGT back when they could be had for relatively similar prices. I was driving every day for my commute though, so the LGT just barely won out, plus I found a 1 owner car with all the service records up to almost the day I bought it and jumped on it. The S4 is…

Similar upgrades to mine. Cobb stage 2, custom vf40, spec b front lca, koni yellows, hr springs, whiteline roll center kit, stoptech slotted rotors, and ventus v12s. I also have a JDM bumper (word of advice: fiberglass bumpers and street parking are not a good combo), headlights and some carbon fiber bits too. My car…

you see, communism has killed BILLIONS. they’re basically the same /s

dudes like that are what make playing multiplayer games with people that aren’t my IRL friends kind of a pain. it’s always abusing whatever the latest exploit is to win, rather than actually having fun. sure winning is fun (and in a shooter what else is there to do), but playing like that got old quickly for me a long…

First off, I’m a HUGE Tyler fan and I’ve been waiting to see his Lancia pop up in a video for some time. He’s has pretty much always had impeccable taste in cars. A friend of a friend tuned is E92 M3 back in the day. The exhaust note of that car was used in a few songs in Cherry Bomb. He had a McLaren for a bit (maybe…

I did my first track day in a Legacy GT too. I still own mine (for maybe another year tops) and can’t wait to get back to the track. Hopefully I can get back this summer.

I always had a stupid soft spot for these. NP for a survivor, since most of the ones I’ve seen (even when they were relatively new) didn’t even come close to being this nice.

I just want a new Super Mario Strikers. I know it’s about as likely as a new F-Zero game, but it was some of the most fun I ever had on gamecube

To be fair, I like motorsport more than horizon, but the new cars/upgrades/QOL stuff is why I like to play whatever the newest entry of Forza is.

I always found the offroad races a bit annoying because of the focus on BIG JUMPS and ULTIMATE DRIFTS. If the offroad races felt more like proper rally, I’d be way more into it, even with the arcade-y physics

it’s been about a decade since I’ve read IGN comments (or IGN in earnest at all). your comment reinforces that for me
