Non-fuel injection makes this an immediate no-dice for me.

Which is ironic, as BMW is on the record for keeping the manual in the M3/M4 because the US market is the one demanding it.

Sooooo, woohoo, another two seat toy? Problem is, and what I think is more wanted, is an IDx or Code 130R. A little practicality goes a long way if you’ve gotta slip this past the finance…

Oh no. Then it’s exotic.

True, if you’re looking for a minimalist setup you’re golden. Not a lot to stow before you go.

My wife and I are thinking more like a mobile hotel/efficiency. Probably a small or medium trailer, like 2500-4000 pounds, maybe a hybrid camper or one with a slide, that we just get to our site, set it up and unhitch our…

Oh, don’t get me wrong. I understand every last pro of the setup and that’s it’s fine. Just tell my lizard-brain that there ain’t poo-germs alllllll over there. (You know, just like everyone’s bathroom in their actual home.) I’ve tried.

The decamping thing is why I’ve crossed virtually any “affordable” RV off my list.

I’m like a mega-snob. My life and I are considering picking up a camper in the next couple years and I give major side-eye at any layout where the toilet is physically in the shower. I got standards.

Cool. . . but I have a dog and there’s a precedent for this sort of thing. . .

After GM’s multi-carb ban (because other division can’t have nice things), only the Corvette was allowed to sport more than one. . .

Except for, obviously, the Corvair. And that’s your bar bet winner with your car buds.

Gah, you beat me by five.

MY SON!

Picture your typical conservative Silent Generation or Boomer father. Now, give him said sports car and let him dote upon it with pride not unlike Darrin McGavin’s toward a certain lighting fixture.

Same here.  My wife and I are fans of the Alton Brown school of thought: no uni-taskers allowed.

Breville’s Smart Oven Air family. We’ve got the earlier/bigger BOV900, but the smaller BOV860up there actually comes in different finishes than stainless steel.

My only real complaint is that the mode knob on ours is a little “twiddly” and sometimes always wants to move down the list.  As far as air frying, toasting,…

Chonky is the appealing version of chunky. Like dis li’l unit.

You and I both know that’s waaaay too simple and common sense a solution. But yes, essentially that is very similar to my thoughts as to how to solve the issue.

I’d hazard it’s because of the obvious complication in loading these things up. I mean, you show up at the yard with a pile of stripped chassis and no form of documentation for any of it. . . people are going to draw conclusions that result in a long conversation with the police.

Look at it as an opportunity to upgrade to one of these beasts. On the pricey side but goddamn are they worth it.

It’s a fun chonky design. Throw the GR’s drivetrain in, I’d be game. Think of it as a hypothetical Juke R that wouldn’t kill you or your wallet immediately.

Interesting.  Could just be me, but get the vibe it’s an ancestor of my wife’s Z400.
