Pshh. Impossible to keep a Subaru stock. 🤣

He’s right.

Mine isn’t 😉

Right. See above, I goofed on the hatch.

Uh oh. Right. Not sure why I said hatch. How about useable cargo space.

You’re right. Should have spent more than half a second looking at it. First sentence of my comment still stands.

Same tires on both cars and they are remarkably close.

Loooool

Now if only I can buy a Miata with a hatch, fold down rear seats, and headroom for, you know, people.

You idiot. That’s a Corvette. It’s made of fiberglass.

Most likely it’s a short fiber spray composite, like small boat hulls. Much cheaper than laminating, it’s much more isotropic, and it’s strong enough if you make it thick enough.

Lol. I guess you don’t know much about materials science with that kind of statement. First off, that’s true when the load is along the fibers. Second, that’s for long fiber laminates, not short fiber composites which this is made of. Long fiber carbon reinforced materials are strong in tension, okay in compression,…

Ghosn cannot bring Mitsubishi back, just like he couldn’t bring 90s Nissan back. He saved the company financially, but Nissan is a soulless husk of what it used to be. In the 90s pretty much every Nissan had some enthusiast appeal, and compared to the competition always had he most interesting and involved cars. Now…

COTD right here.

Upvoted for ‘but I’m usually not’ :D

LOL, 50K? Any car should coast to 50K problem free, that’s a low, low bar! Let us know if it makes it to 200 with only routine and preventative maintenance and I’ll be impressed.

As amazing as it would be, they will NEVER make a RWD mini.

Why don’t you have more stars?

Honestly, no RWD, no care.

Jeff?
