Car Talk 1: Passengers matter

[max225]

You have to think about the purpose of the car...

If it is simply a toy for going fast, then yea fuck seats and comfort.
If it is a toy that's fun for you and a chick you wanna bone, then you have to add comfort back in.
If it is something you want to live with daily, then you have to have comfort+space and possibly seats/hatch etc.

Having other vehicles to offload those tasks onto creates an endless no-win argument scenario.

Seriously, how often do you guys have anyone sitting in your back seats?

Often enough about once a week.

one can make endless compromises ... and you end up in an Ariel atom...

I'm serious that I've had a rear seat passenger at most once a year. I can't imagine hauling people around more than that.

I appreciate having a roof like 360 days per year

Can we tag ppl or nah...?

If you put @Desertbreh it will show as a notification. Not a tag per se but it operates as one.

Incorrect. I've seen @Detroit and never got a notification.

Not to mention, no back seats means someone else drives.

You have 2 other 4 door door vehicles You don't even drive the C5....

But we pretty much never have people in the back. The only reason we have 4-doors is because they were cheap.

Back seats are for
Sometimes family members or friends to/from airport. Hardly anyone else.

I dunno I think my 370z was a better car than an sti with the exception of back seat. I don't know if I'm ok with the road noise, the roads here are turrible

I don't doubt that, I need back seat doe, even if it's completely useless.

If I was going to go small SUV Id go BMW X1 - http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons ... 28i-page-6

[max225]

I drove the X1, it was excellent for what it was. A great driving 5 seater SUV.

[Johnny_P]

If I was going to go small SUV Id go jump off a bridge and end it

Me too!

Home from my R56's complimentary checkup. Only thing they noted was tire wear on the fronts (easy fix with a rotation) and the strut tops are starting to separate. Was advised to wait until after the winter before fixing them service dillerlady. Will replace with something involving camber plates.
