The STI pulls ahead on the straights, but the BRZ makes up time in the curves. Slow motion shot of synchronized drifting through a couple of really tight turns. "I just can't quit delivering tofu"

If its only getting around 23/30 EPA that isn't much better than a V6 Mustang, no?

If it does come in around 21K, I think it'll be pretty successful. Not selling 200K units a year successful but still pretty good. How much were ITRs when they were new?

If the base model comes in at 20K in the US then I imagine they'll sell pretty well.

Does Subaru have production facilities in the US? Are they capable of running the platform there?

Yeah right now a lot of Japanese companies are posting record losses because of the earthquake/nuclear disaster and despite all the QE the Japanese government is doing they can't seem to devalue the Yen at all.

It's 0-60 times might be pedestrian for a modern vehicle but I'm pretty sure with modern rubber it'll out handle your mom's rav4 or whatever. E: I should not leave tabs open forever oops

Does the Fusion sport actually change anything in the suspension or is just an appearance package?

Depends on how vertically integrated Toyota's supply chain is.

Do the manufacturers with no models listed have all cars as RWD or something?

Maybe its to make it contrast from the rest of the lights on the dash so you don't forget to turn off your brights and enrage every driver going the opposite way as you?

Wait, how do we know that a car that just came out isn't full of horrible design flaws like plastic expansion tanks and radiators that like to blow up or shock tower mounts that tear and poo poo?

That is pretty much perfect wheel gap IMO.

DerDestroyer posted:I heard they have fixed up the initial bugs that came with MyFord Touch. It used to be absolutely atrocious though. It's more than just a matter of preference and user friendliness as it was with the initial complaints about Audi and BMW's infotainment systems. The drat thing was a horribly buggy piece of poo poo that eventually completely froze up and didn't work properly. Well isn't it designed and backed by microsoft? Everyone knows it takes 3 revisions for a microsoft product to not suck.

When they first came out 10 or 15 years ago they were touted as the future when they wound up being pretty mediocre and breaking after less than 100k miles. I'm sure the technology has improved since then but automotive perceptions always seem to lag about 10 years.
