Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Yeeeeeeeep thats what I said. 

 

Going for the X huh? I personally think its pretty ugly. Don't like the sensor band taking up screen room. Plus gotta wait for the eventual facegate to pass. 

Agreed. Samsung did bezeless display much better than apple. then again, samsung never had to deal with a physical home button or anything, or had to deal with the sensor issues either.

Well the tacoma/4runner aren't that luxurious for a daily. But I would consider a Tundra Platinum Crewmax as an option.

Went to a large car show yesterday. About 1 to 2k cars. Met Rob Ferretti in his student driver corvette. I don't follow him anymore but it was still an interesting experience.

And finally got to see the Huracan Performante and Bugatti Veyron SS "Pur Blanc"in person after each of them a couple times.

What's the point of a lowered jeep with camber? 

 

That's nice and all but the lupo doesn't have heating does it? VW stripped out everything they could to save weight. 

Idk. He has one same year and model, that's lifted as well

imagine if you were getting divorced, and your wife gains custody of your cars. SO that means she takes your money, your kids, and your prized possessions. that would be a double whammy.

@iDeFecZx that clio must be fun to max out on track. But why not get the V6 version of it. That is a truly awesome little car. Makes around 260 BHP and 300 Nm. Screaming N/A 3.0L V6 behind you where the backseats used to be. From the factory :o :D

On one hand, it'd be freaking awesome if she was as in to vehicles as you are.

 

On the other hand if she isn't in to vehicles like you are..

I already know what divorce can do. They can take pretty much anything they want to.

Just don't fuck up. It's simple as that. All you've got to know to not fuck up is anything you do, even something done correctly, is wrong.

 

There you go.
