Yes, but that ride quality on the track translates to a miserable ride quality on the street. The new Type R looks like it is riding about as well as a 90s shitbox on eBay coilovers, whereas the Golf R looks to have a much more compliant ride at the expense of only one second at the track, which is...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoQHeiR8Or0&t=1530s After looking at the stark difference in ride quality between the Type R and Golf R in that video, and given the fact that the Type R doesn't have heated seats, I don't know why anyone would pick it up over a Golf R, especially with all of the...

I would venture to say 90% of the type R drivers will never track and honestly who gives a flying fuck about the track. If you wanted to “track” you wouldn’t/shouldn’t do it in a car you enjoy driving daily because they are just not complimentary attributes. A $10k gutted e36 will be a far better t...

I prefer a manual transmission in my cars because I enjoy the experience more. It's that simple for me. Every car , even those with a great auto? Yes, I just prefer shifting myself. I'm well aware that automatics outperform the manual counterparts. They have in some aspect of motoring for the last ...

Looks so much better than the WRX/crosstrek, too bad the powertrain is still boring.

Yeah, I would hate for Subaru to put the WRX drivetrain in the Impreza body.

Are no other supporting mods needed to support that horsepower gain?

I agree. The TT V6 is cool in its own right, but a V8 would have been that much cooler.

Of course, with GM being GM, they probably would have dusted off the Northstar and then wondered why nobody bought one.

So, after spending a week with the V6 6th Gen Camaro, I have a few thoughts on the car. I have driven the 6th Gen twice before, back in 2016 and in 2017, on dealership test drives, and both times I was rather meh on the thing. This is the first V6 and automatic Camaro I have driven. I find it impre...

I mean, everything is moving to apps and it is retarded. I don't want to have to download 200 apps just because every business has decided everything is better through their app. As for heat in electric cars, yes, electric heat coils are very inefficient. Just look at any auxiliary heater in a buil...

I did an acai bowl from a place called Nekter and a coffee from a place called Philz Coffee. I walked into Philz Coffee completely blind and just started ordering a cappuccino, only to be told that they don't make cappuccinos, lattes, espressos, or any of the other standard fare coffee drinks. They ...

Eating breakfast this morning, I overheard two people complaining about how cold it was. The one guy was completely decked out in a full-on winter coat and hat, and he commented on how his steering wheel was freezing. It was 50. It’s absurd. Especially when people are native to the area like Michel...

Wasn't able to head south tonight. I checked Google and an accident added 40 minutes to the drive to Seaport. I posted up at Monarch in Del Mar. Their spicy chicken sandwich was pretty damn good. I found this local Greek hole in the wall place in North Austin last night, was truly a 5/7 meal, damn ...

: Those naturally aspirated manual Corolla hatches you guys are talking about are more than they cost new on the used market so that is a hard pass for me as well. Anything with a manual transmission seems to appreciate on the used market these days. Just look at the disparity between auto and :man...

https://www.billmarshhyundai.com/new/Hyundai/2023-Hyundai-Elantra+N-f42d55d40a0e0a940b62a1cffbaab1c9.htm Dealer near me got this in, parked right out front. If it wasn't so ugly, I'd be inclined to go test drive it. The Subaru dealer next door got in a :manuel: WRBlue WRX for the same price. There ...

Whelp, got an electrical gremlin in the Blue Meanie. The last couple days I was getting a random start/stop error and it would stop working. :aintcare: about that so I ignored the warning. Then today when I left work the keyless door unlock didn't work on the drivers door. It worked on the passenge...

Not in Seaport, it’s in San Diego harbor just north of Seaport, Brigantine is good and there are a few other good spots in that area. Wasn't able to head south tonight. I checked Google and an accident added 40 minutes to the drive to Seaport. I posted up at Monarch in Del Mar. Their spicy chicken ...

No worries. I stopped by Miguel's Cocina last night for dinner. It was decent, but nothing mindblowing. The raspberry mojito was good, though. I'm going to try Seaport tonight, I think. We'll see how I feel once I get done work. Were you over in Old Town? A buddy’s wife used to work there. Food was...

I'm staying at the Doubletree off El Camino Real. Damn, sorry, I’m not as familiar with the La Jolla area. Their mall has a little cafe version of my favorite restaurant in SD Queenstown Public House, can’t vouch for the one in La Jolla though. Nothing you can’t get anywhere else, I don’t think, bu...

Yeah, it's currently 62° out here. So, light jacket weather. I did take notice of the gas prices. :disgust: :whalecum: to the promised land motherfucker Thank ye. It's going to be an interesting four days trying to get things done. I've been tasked with decommissioning a leased space before the end...
