True, the sedan is priced slightly above the hathback. In Indonesia however, they are ridiculously more expensive, because the stupid laws enacts bigger tax on sedan bodyworks, while the hatchback can be classified as a “minibus”, hence much cheaper.

People are mistaken by assuming the good ratio of doctor / patient = excellent healthcare. Cuba does educate more doctors per population than the rest of the world. But the sanction has kept them from obtaining the latest medical technologies and know how possessed by most developed countries.

There is nothing wrong with Camry itself. That’s the point. But when everbody else made progress, Toyota and Honda seems stubborn like its simpleton target market, sticking to the “if it doesn’t break, don’t fix it!” mantra. As a result, it stays behind. Nokia listened to such nonsense, they fail to look forward…

I admit it, as a not-so car guy, I am still able to spot a thing or two that give away the fakeness. But overall, this is a remarkably well done kit car. There are tons out there, like Ferrari Fiero that is much much crappier than this.

Everything else in the same segment has that kind of silly edition.

1970-1990

Subaru’s main appeal is that they are not Toyota, Honda, or Nissan. Similar to Mazda, only Mazda made style their cars a little bit and add some fun. The appeal is there, I nearly bought the XV 2 years ago.

Better than the last one.

I saw a lot of people calling Jeremy a thug, racist, and such. There are 350 million people outside the anglosphere and western European sphere who clearly enjoys his antics. We certainly seen much worse.

I want to believe that as well. In some documentaries outside Top Gear, Jezza is a typical outspoken bloke with a lot of influence and money. His demeanor I suppose, is of an average English person. He is pretty polite in traffic, even when driving super cars. He is relatively apologetic and modest for a celebrity of…

Born to old rich family gave me the sense that people who buy Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Paganis are usually successful startups. Aspiring guy who becomes successful and is finally able to afford his dream car. Rude abbrasive Americans call their kind “successful plumbers”. Around the circles, I only saw Mercedes, BMW,…

I think that’s sums up how it feels being minority: awful. Am I an ethnic A in country C? The indigenous people of country C never makes me feel like I am a C national. The fact that we now have “option column ethnic A” in every survey / official papers only makes the matter worse.

As a British car enthusiast, you’ll know then, a true sports car doesn’t need gargantuan horsepower number to back it up.

I wanted to say this as well. But some part of me say that this is because of the last decade being the worst ever in a century of automobile existence: a lot of Chinese knock off surfaced, pretentious luxury wannabes by chroming all over the body, opulence triumphs clever engineering (Veyron), and the year where…

For non car rich people, Genesis can be that luxury appliance. It has everything you need, except driving dynamics and all other characteristics irrelevant to non car people. Cheaper than competition, reliable, decent-looking, packed with competitive technologies, and enough amenities. It is a sensible choice.

I am all for honest and unbiased review of consumer products. You can have any review style you wanted, PC or not. Top Gear of UK is famous for its scathing reviews on cars they don’t like. In the end, people will get it, whether the reviewer is a bumbling idiot, or actually know what he is talking about. Some idiot…

It is a car, which novelty wears down pretty quickly.

They advertised the dumbed down HR-V here using peck and abs, implying that their car is “muscular”. Perhaps it would work for many third world ignorants. But muscular? This Civic already looks like the very conservative HR-V. Really, look at those wheelarches. Flat! The rear view is the worse. Are you building…

When it comes to working with Americans, the Brits often get confused. When they hear Ken Block “performing slides” - clearly written in the BBC letter, what did they expect? As an Anglophile, I am somehow perplexed by sometimes, their my subject of admiration’s inability to foresee the consequences. Oh, it is a…

That is American GIs banging a Panzerschreck. Find one goofy pictures with British soldiers, usually it occurs during their North African campaign.
