Also this, tried a more diplomatic tack.
Not everyone can handle 440whp under the right foot.

Hitch retrofit kit I bought was 5/7 legit... just had to pull the back of the truck apart. A lot.

Found a company that put together a retrofit kit for $400 (now $600) that has the OEM rear bumper bar w/ receiver, OEM trim bezel, hardware, detailed instructions and a template to cut the OEM bumper cover to make it all work. Even came with extra clips to replace the ones they know you’re going to break.
I skipped on the wiring. Don’t ever plan on towing with it... it’s just for the bike rack.

No, that's why I was so
Guy has a vapebro'd last gen STI in pearl white with mag blue wheels and green waxables. Slightly older guy too, I'd say 40-ish.
Nothing makes sense.then.

I always just use the tires or open the door and use the door frame to stand on.[user not found] wrote: ↑Mon Apr 23, 2018 7:29 amEven guys like myself would need a step stool to throw a bike on the roof, the Renegade sits pretty tall and upright.

Wringing a car out everywhere is quite fun. I can't redline my STI much anywhere. It's quite a bit faster than my GTI was, which I took to redline constantly on the bigger boulevards in the city.D Griff wrote: ↑Mon Apr 23, 2018 8:33 amEhhh...
I'm going to take the middle ground on this one.
Asucks to drive around in a city, no ground clearance, massive turning radius, wide as hell and difficult to park due to not being able to see the corners of the car.
I view it like this, a rating in fun factors:
City/in town driving fun: Miata 5/7,2/7
Autox: Miata 5/7,4/7
Canyon carving/back road cruising: Miata 4/7,5/7
Track: I haven't tracked a Miata (but likely 5/7 with mods needed though),6/7 stock, 7/7 with modz

The new Vantage looks like it could easily be the new Supra. I hate it.
