Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times

I’m so torn. The cool factor is immense and it looks stunning… but driving a 90s automatic transmission is a pretty hard no for me. Weirdly I’ve been thinking a bit about a V10 manual M5. Saw one today on my bike ride and it was so hot. And so affordable. :lolol: I've heard the gearing and torque c...

Hauled the entire fam today. Remote start makes up for lack of vents. No complaints from the peanuts. The trunk is enormous in this. Way bigger than the CRV. Our stroller takes up the entire trunk in that but in the accord I could fit two with room to spare. Five star dadwagon. That rear seating lo...

OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away

I dont know what it is for me, but usually i eat my breakfast light. Im all about oatmeal cereal in the morning, or some cracker and perhaps pastry. But when I was younger I used to skip breakfast, until i got diagnosed with ADD and have to be on full stomach to take my med every morning.

Mostly the face / exterior looks. But also the interior got a refresh and it doesn’t look quite as drab. And yeah the base Jetta is probably an awesome commuter. Good mpg and reasonably quick. Like it’s cheaper than the civic, has a real transmission, and is almost 2 seconds faster to 60 stock than...

So I rented an Audi A3 this week. Kind of :disappoint: as right as I was leaving the lot, they brought around a MK8 GTI, would've loved to try it out, especially as there are some nice mild twisty roads in the Philly 'burbs. The car is kind of lackluster. I've had one before and this one... I just ...
