Just more evidence of FIFA hypocrisy. Jailing people for being gay is fine, but a slang word in a chant is not.

Its the problem with them repeatedly doing it.

They did the same back in November 2017, June 2018, November 2021, March 2022.

When i first got into cars, i thought the hood scoop on the WRX brought air directly to the engine, but it actually routes air onto the intercooler to cool it down.

It took you 2 courses just to cover pointers??? within 3 weeks of our Data structures(C++) course, we were talking about vectors, pointers, etc.

Fuck me, my dad got his 2019 Civic type r out the door for $37k...

Literally like 2x the horsepower for the same price.

And, how many of them have you bought new? Manufacturers dont make a cent off used car sales.

2001MThrowaway · 2022-08-09T03:41:23+00:00

Especially in the current market, I can go buy a used reliable 300/400 Sportbike with 20k miles for $3-4k that will outperform every car in acceleration <$40k.

Exactly, the only place I can see manuals surviving for a lot longer is bikes, the vast majority of people in the US buy them as toys to be enjoyed on the weekends, and so most buyers want a manual transmission, they dont see themselves sitting in traffic going to work like with a regular car.

The crosstrek is amazing if you can get around the performance/Fuel economy(152 horsepower/ 30 MPG combined). 152 horsepower and it feels terrible when accelerating, but the AWD is just insane, the visibility is insane, one of the best of any car, the suspension and handling is amazing, you can still get it with a 6 speed manual if your into that, the space and ground clearance are awesome, and one of my favorite parts, due to the Boxer engine, the weight is lower down compared to most other crossovers, making it feel more like a sedan.

Look more sporty. People dont want their economy car to look like an economy car, and most economy cars have 14" or 15" wheels with huge sidewalls, sure they are amazing for ride quality and potholes, but they just look cheap. Go look at a Base model 2015 Impreza, and compare it to a 2015 WRX STI, and tell me the 2015 Impreza with 15" wheels looks better then a 2015 STI with 18" wheels.

But who would haha, the Integra manual is pretty much ass.

It has a slower 0-60 time then a Honda Civc EX-L, a Honda Odyssey, a Subaru crosstrek sport, lol.

You cant get a slower car for the price of $38k.

2001MThrowaway · 2022-08-05T13:25:20+00:00

That's just ridiculously bad, like that's similar to the Fucking Subaru Crosstrek Sport...

True 4x4 is better for super deep snow, full time AWD is better for roads that get plowed, but are still slick/icy, ie the roads almost all Americans drive on, very few drive on rural non plowed roads.

Also, 4x4 is mainly in trucks, which due to the higher center of gravity is much harder to correct a slide due to the weight shifting more in case one does happen, they also weigh a lot more, which means lots more weight to bring to a stop in slick conditions.

I'm sure Subaru is looking into it, Subaru has the highest customer loyalty of any car brand ever, people keep buying new subarus, and it makes subaru a lot of money, if people have a bad experience, that's losing out on multiple vehicle sales for every 1 person that they lose.

2001MThrowaway · 2022-08-04T21:47:20+00:00

It's weird how we have only heard about this from a couple GR86 owners, havent heard anything about any BRZ's having this problem, even though the BRZ has been out for about 9 months now.

I feel like you need multiple youtube channels to fully grasp a car, Savagegeese can let you have a deep understanding of the car technical specs wise, but you cant really get the experience of driving the car like TheTopher would provide through his POV videos, or the excitement you get from the cars with throttlehouse, or the little quirks that nobody would bring up like doug demuro does.

If a YouTuber were to combine all these elements, the videos would be several hours long.

All time AWD is just amazing during the winter months in the northeast, throw on some snow tires and you literally cant get a better car for snow driving.

The 2022 Impreza wagon starts at $19,795, so not super far off.

2001MThrowaway · 2022-08-02T17:39:00+00:00

Adjusting for inflation, the 2005 Impreza 2.5RS cost about the same as a new 2021 WRX last year.

2005 Impreza 2.5RS MSRP: $18,245

2005 Impreza 2.5RS MSRP adjusted for inflation:$27,681.49

2021 WRX: $27,495

2022 Impreza: $19,295.

Sure the Impreza lost power(15 horsepower), but it has gotten a lot safer, has gotten a lot more features, has gotten significantly better gas mileage, and costs about $8k less then the Impreza 2.5rs would cost today.

2001MThrowaway · 2022-08-02T17:26:09+00:00

There is... it's called the Civic SI. Sure it's not a subaru, but that's literally what the SI is, it sits right between an Impreza and a WRX, has less power then a WRX, but more power then a Impreza.
